• Do not attach or detach the torch from the gas cylinder in an area where accidentally released gas

• Never attempt to modify the torch construction and never use unapproved fuel, or else it could result
in fires, explosions, property damage, and/or operator injury.

• Treat this torch as you would any fine tool or instrument. If it’s ever damaged, do not use it, and
immediately contact the authorized service center for assistance.
• Torches improperly operated, maintained, or repaired are dangerous! Improper use, service repair, or
modification of the torch could result in damage to the product, property damage, or personal injury
to the operator.
• When the gas cylinder is empty, dispose of it properly in a safe and approved location. Do not throw
the cylinder into a fire, puncture, or incinerate it.
• It is illegal and dangerous to refill the propane gas tank on your own. Obtain a new propane cylinder
from an authorized retailer.
• Do not inhale gas, fumes, vapor, or spray from the propane cylinder or torch, and avoid contact with
skin and eyes. If inhaled, immediately move the affected person to fresh air. For skin contact, flush
with lots of water. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and then seek

• Always wear protective glasses and gloves. Use proper tools to handle hot work. Always have a fire
extinguisher and a bucket of water near your torch and work area.
• Only use this torch in well-ventilated areas.
• Hidden areas such as those behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit boards, and other panels may contain
flammable materials that could be ignited by the heat gun when working in these locations. The
ignition of these materials may not be readily apparent and could result in property damage and
injury to persons.
• When working in locations that could have hidden areas/flammable materials behind them, keep the
torch moving in a back-and-forth motion. Lingering or pausing in one spot could ignite the panel or
the material behind it.
