5.5 removal and replacement of torch cables
1. Disconnect the torch cable assembly from the power source. Refer to your power source and your power
source instruction booklet for detailed instructions.
2. Remove the torch head from the cable assembly as described in steps 1 through 7 of the previous section.
Also remove the handle and flex support from the cable assembly.
3. Lay the cable assembly out straight. This should be done in an area about 1-1/2 times the length of the
cables.
4. Using a piece of cord or sturdy twine about 1/2 the length of the torch cables, secure one end of the cord
around all of the torch cables at the torch end and secure the other end of the cord to a stationary object.
5. Remove the tape from the cable sleeving at the power source end of the cables.
6. Push the switch out of the switch band and slide the handle, switch band and flex support to the far end of
the cord used in step 4. Secure the power source end of the cables and pull the cable sleeving completely
onto the cord.
7. Untie the cord from the cables and replace the damaged cables or cables.
8. Resecure the torch ends of the cables with the cord and pull the cable sleeving back onto the cables. Tem-
porarily secure the sleeving to the cables near the torch head end with vinyl electrical tape.
9. Pull the flex support, switch band and handle back off the cord and onto the cable sleeving. Remove the
tape.
10. Untie the cord from the cables and follow steps 7 through 12 of the previous section to secure the torch head
to the cable assembly.
11. Secure the cable sleeving to the cables at the power source end with vinyl electrical tape.
5.6 replacement of flex support, switch Band or handle
If damage to the flex support, switch band or torch handle causes the need for replacement of any of these
items, follow the procedure in the section “Removal and Replacement of the Torch Head” and replace the part(s)
in question during step 7 prior to reattaching the torch head. This process will be made easier by temporarily
securing the sleeving to the cables with vinyl electrical tape.
5.7 replacement of torch switch
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 of the section “Removal and Replacement of the Torch Head”.
2. Clip the black and white leads of the old switch as close as possible to the red splice connections. Strip 1/4"
(6.4 mm) of insulation from the black and white leads.
3. Strip 1/4" (6.4 mm) of insulation from the new switch leads.
4. Attach the switch leads to the switch cable using the two new splice connections included with the replace-
ment switch. Be sure to use a crimping tool made for crimping this type of splice connection.
5. Reverse steps 1 through 3 of the section “Removal and Replacement of the Torch Head” to finish.
