LIGHTING AND OPERATION
CAUTION:
Tipping the gas cylinder more than 60 degrees from its upright position may cause torch to flare. MT535 torch has a built-in
regulator that controls pressure and reduces the risk of pulsating or yellow flames when used other than upright; MT525 and MT531C do
not. It is recommended to start working with a disposable hand torch cylinder at room temperature and to keep torch upright as much as
possible.
1. Open valve fully by turning adjustment knob (1) counter clockwise until it stops. Do not force. Always fully open valve when lighting to
prevent damage to ignition system. Never look into the burner tube (3) or point in unsafe direction.
2. Point the torch in a safe direction and pull the ignition button (2) toward you. Repeat if necessary.
3. After the torch lights the igniter button (2) may be released and the flame may be adjusted by turning the adjustment knob (1).
4. To avoid possible damage to the ignition system, do not operate the ignition button (2) while the torch is operating.
5. To stop torch, close regulator valve by turning adjustment knob (1) fully clockwise until it stops. Do not force.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
•
Make sure the torch is cool before installing or removing cylinder and accessories. Using the torch with a low flame can cause damage
to the burn tube and ignition system.
•
Check all joints and couplings periodically to insure against loose connections. With valve open, without lighting, test all connections
with soapy water. If bubbles appear, gas is leaking and torch must be repaired or replaced. NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR
LEAKS. Make this test in a well ventilated and spark-free area and where there are no open flames.
•
In cold weather the size of the flame will be smaller. To produce a larger flame, pre-warm the cylinder to room temperature prior to use.
STORAGE
REMOVE CYLINDER FROM TORCH WHEN NOT IN USE
1. Make sure valve is closed by turning flame adjustment knob (1) fully clockwise until it stops. Hand tighten only. Do not force.
2. When torch is cool, disconnect cylinder and store torch and cylinder separately and out of reach of children. Observe cautions on
cylinder label.
3. Do not expose cylinders to temperatures in excess of 120ºF.
4. Store cylinders in well ventilated areas.
