4. Slowly turn the blue oxygen knob of
the torch
11
anti-clockwise to open
until you obtain a light blue flame.
5. An excess of oxygen can cause the flame to
separate from the torch tip or to extinguish.
In this case close the oxygen and fuel valves
and repeat the operation from point 1.
The equipment is now ready to perform your work.
By regulating the amount of fuel and
oxygen it is possible to obtain several
different flames for carrying out different
types of work from heating to cutting.
We recommend only turning the fuel and
oxygen on once the material for work is
ready: this avoids wasting oxygen and fuel,
and reduces the risk of accidental ignition.
TO EXTINGUISH
1. Slowly close the blue oxygen knob of the
torch
11
by turning it clockwise. The
flame colour should change to a yellow
colour indicating that the oxygen has
now been removed from the flame.
2. Slowly close the orange fuel knob of the
torch
12
by turning it anti-clockwise. This
should then extinguish the flame all together.
3. Turn both the orange
4
and blue
2
knobs at the regulators in a clockwise
direction. This will close off the gas
and oxygen at the regulators.
4. To purge the fuel and oxygen from the
hose and torch, turn both torch knobs
in an anti-clockwise direction for a
short period, then close again.
Storage
1. Always disconnect the regulators from
the cartridges when not in use.
2. Store the torch and cartridges
is a safe, dry place.
3. Keep out of reach of children.

to refill these cartridges.
7. Never put in luggage or take
on trains or aircraft.
8. To discard, contact local recycle centre.
Never put in fire or incinerator.
Do not puncture.
