e) Particular attention should be paid to the recommended maximum and minimum operating pressures and flows for
the blowpipe-mixer tip or nozzle combination. These should always be respected.
f) Never hang a blowpipe or gas hose on a regulator or cylinder valve.
g) Never test for leaks with a flame.
Tips, nozzles and their attachment fittings
i) Uni-Flame Tips and nozzles are well identified and carry information relating to their use such as size, recommended
gas pressures and plate thickness to be cut.
ii) Uni-Flame Tips and cutting nozzles appropriate to the particular fuel gas should be used.
See Cutting guide chart 2.1 & 2.2 below for appropriate nozzle recommendation.
iii)
It should be noted that tips and nozzles operate safely and efficiently over a limited range of flows. Below a minimum
