The Ray-Vin SuperSmoker (patent pending) has been engineered for simplicity
of construction and ease of use. The SuperSmoker is constructed from the finest
materials for corrosion resistance and a long and trouble-free life.
Please read the instructions! The smoker is designed for intermittent use for
blackening the sights on rifles and pistols. It is not intended to be used as a
candle or lamp and will melt if left burning for an extended period of time.
Extinguish the flame when you are finished smoking your sights and replace the
safety cap. Keep from freezing.
The Super Smoker is composed of two main sub-assemblies; the firehead and the
water injector. Carbide is stored in the firehead and water is stored in the water injec-
tor. A special valve keeps water from leaking into the firehead until you need it.
The firehead is equipped with a flint wheel ignition system. The jet in the
firehead has a cotton filter to keep it clean. Should the filter become clogged, you can
replace it with cotton, or in a pinch, a bit of rag or paper towel. Never leave the jet
unfiltered.
The safety cap serves four purposes; first, it protects the jet and flint wheel, second, it
keeps the flint wheel from rubbing on something and re-lighting the flame (and setting your kit
on fire!), third, it is a sifter to separate the dust from the rocks, and fourth, it allows the
firehead to sit upside down when loading carbide.
Loading Instructions:
1) Separate the firehead and the injector by unscrewing.
2) Remove the pump knob from the injector by unscrewing.
3) Fill injector
FULL to overflowing
with clean water.
Avoid
trapping any air inside the injector.
4) Replace the pump knob
DISPLACING EXCESS WATER & AIR
and screw it in until you
feel the o-ring bite and water jets from the injector valve.
5) Dry Excess water and set injector aside.
6) Set the firehead upside down with the safety cap in place.
7) Fill fire head no more than 1/2 full with lamp grade carbide.
8) Screw injector into the fire head to
firmly
compress the o-ring seal.
(at least 1/4 of a turn after contact.)
9) The smoker is now ready to use.
Operating Instructions:
1) Always give the smoker a shake to distribute rocks and powder & remove safety cap.
2) Check jet o-ring and firehead/injector o-ring - make sure they are tight!
3) Turn pump knob in just a tiny little bit. No more than 1/8 turn clockwise.
4) Point firehead away from face, body and anything flammable.
5) Strike a spark with the flint wheel to ignite the acetylene.
(If smoker does not light, turn the pump knob in just a little more.)
6) Smoke gun sights. Turn pump knob in to increase flame.
(Avoid the urge to turn the pump knob backwards to reduce the flame. It will not
reduce the flame and might draw air into the water chamber.)
7) Extinguish the flame!
8) Replace safety cap.

It will only take a minute.
Tip: Let your smoker sit overnight before
cleaning out the carbide chamber
. This
will dry it out and there will be nothing but
dry powder and rocks inside. Use the
sifter cap to separate the rocks for re-
use and blow the dust off the threads
before re-assembly
.
