Safety, Set-Up, and Operating Instructions

Gas Welding, Cutting, Brazing & Heating

There are many hazards to be considered when using oxy-fuel

welding, cutting, brazing and heating equipment.  Proper safety

precautions  must  be  taken  when  using  such  equipment.
Read, understand, and implement all safety precautions prior

to  performing  any  welding,  cutting,  heating  or  brazing

operation!
This  handbook  is  offered  as  a  practical  guide  to  the  safe

operation of this equipment.

This Outfit comes complete with Torch Handle
Reverse Flow Check Valves.

(Note:  See page 14 for check valve maintenance.)

Reverse flow check valves should

always be used between the 

torch

handle

 and the regulator during use of the welding

outfit.  Check valves are used to prevent mixed

gases from flowing back into the hoses or regulators.

Oxygen or fuel separately are not explosive.

However, when the two are mixed together in a hose

or regulator they can ignite and cause an explosion,

resulting in injury or damage.
