1.
Maintain the tool with care. A tool in good condition is efficient, easier to
control and will have fewer problems.

worn components. Only use identical replacement parts when servicing.
3.
Only use accessories intended for use with this tool.
4.

WARNING! Only qualified service personnel should repair the tool. An
improperly repaired tool may present a hazard to the user and/or others.
FLAME ARRESTOR
Flashback occurs when the flame disappears into the torch, following the fuel to
the fuel cylinders. The flame arrestor cools the flame temperature until it is
below the ignition temperature to prevent the flashback. See Specific
Precautions 2. a. for safety measures should this occur.
1.
Once the torch is cool, examine the torch tip (A) for blockages or
obstructions by foreign objects. Clean the burner tip.
2.
Light the torch again. If the same problem occurs, the burner tip must
be replaced.
CLEANING THE BURNER TIP
WARNING! Do not attempt to clear or clean inside the burner tip with any
tool. Any scratches or deformation will affect the behavior of the torch
flame and it could pose a fire hazard.
1.
Close both fuel valves and wait for the torch to cool. Disconnect the valves
from the fuel cylinders.
2.
Point the burner tip towards the ground and gently use a wire brush to
brush along the burner tip length, away from the torch.
3.
Replace the tip if it is still visibly obstructed. Otherwise set up the torch
again and check to see if the problem persists. If the problem remains,
replace the burner tip.
