CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65:

This fuel, and byproducts of combustion of this fuel, contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a "rotten egg" smell. The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.
Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use.

EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures exceed 120 degrees F (49°C).
Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.
Never install or remove propane tank while torch is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while torch is hot to touch.
During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the torch in spaces that contain or may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemicals. Minimum clearances from house, wooden deck, or any other combustible materials: 72 inches from the sides and 72 inches from the top.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
Proper torch operation produces a yellow flame approximately 6 - 8 inches tall.

Not for use inside homes, recreational vehicles, or on boats. We cannot foresee every use which may be made of our products. Check with your local fire safety authority if you have questions about use. Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and heat producing products for specific uses. Your local authorities can advise you about these.

Never refill disposable cylinders.
Use the preset regulator that came with the torch. Do not attempt to adjust.
Use only Coleman ® accessories or parts. During torch set-up, check all fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.

BURN HAZARD

Never leave torch unattended when hot or in use.
Keep out of reach of children.

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

This product is designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the torch.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symptoms are present during operation of this product get fresh air immediately!
For outdoor use only.
Never use inside house, camper, tent, vehicle or other unventilated or enclosed areas. This torch consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.

SERVICE SAFETY

Keep all connections and fittings clean. Inspect propane cylinder and torch propane connections for damage before attaching.
During set up, CHECK FOR LEAKS in one or more ways: Apply soapy water to connections. Look for bubbles. Listen for hiss of escaping gas. Feel for extreme cold. Smell for rotten egg odor. Never use a flame. Do not use if leaking.
Use as a lighting appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device or part not expressly approved by Coleman.
