1. Ensure the LPG valve is closed when not
in use.
2. LPG is extremely flammable and
dangerous. Before each and every
use, inspect hoses and connections for
damage and leaks. You can do this by
making up a solution of hand soap and
water and applying to areas with a spray
bottle. Turn the gas on and if you notice
bubbling you know you have a leak that
needs adjusting. If you have consistent
bubbling at connection points you have a
leak. Use either approved gas thread tape
or sealant provided to ensure a safe seal.
If the bubbling continues do not use the
equipment and contact a licensed
gas fitter.
3. When initially opening the valve on the
handle of the Weed Wand be ready to
light the burner be prepared to light the
burner with the accompanying flint lighter
immediately. Never allow prolonged LPG
to flow to the unignited burner. If there
has been excess unburned LPG flow,
close the valve, move your unit away
from where you are and make sure you
have allowed ample time for the LPG to
dissipate before reattempting to ignite
the burner.
4. If you smell gas – shut o
ff
the gas to the
device. Extinguish any open flame. Check
the device for any leaks using the soap-
water solution. Do not attempt to relight
the device until leaks are repaired and
there is no gas smell.
5. When ready to use, have flint light ready
and Weed Wand in a safe position. Ensure
all the safety procedures have been
considered and you feel comfortable to
use the Weed Wand safely. Turn the gas
on at the valve at a low rate of flow until
you hear the gas exiting the burner.
6. Light the burner head using the flint
lighter. Try increasing LPG flow slightly
until your happy with flow
7. Adjust the flow of LPG to designated
flame size, remembering that the higher
the flow the more LPG that will be used
and increased speed at which the bottle
may freeze. You can remedy this issue
with either waiting for the bottle to thaw
out or by exchanging for another bottle.
8. Always ensure the burner head is
completely extinguished after use and
that the Weed Wand has cooled down
before being stored.
