Caution: Alw
ays “crack” or momentarily open the
valve of a compressed gas cylinder before attaching
the regulator. M
ake sure the valve is not pointed
towards yourself or other individuals.
Cracking the cylinder valve clears foreign m
aterial
out of the valve seat. Foreign m
aterial may cause
damage to valve or regulator connections, which
can cause leaking.
Step 3: Attach
oxygen
regulator

Caution: Never use any petroleum based
lubricant on any pure oxygen fitting, hose or
regulator.
Pure oxygen w
ill reduce the kindling
temperature of these lubricants to room
temperature
Step 4: Attach
acetylene
regulator

Caution: When first opening an oxygen cylinder valve
alw
ays turn the valve 1/4 turn, wait several seconds
then open all the w
ay. This step allows the initial in
rush of pressure to the regulator to stabilize.
It is also important to stand to the side of the
regulator behind the valve. If the valve w

Caution: Only turn the valve a 1/2 to
3/4 turn. This w
ill allow quick shutting
of valve in case of a emergency.
If a w
rench or T handle is needed to
operate valve leave tool in place to also
allow quick shutting of the valve.

Caution: Purging both lines will eliminate any
mixed gases from torch. Gases can become
mixed if torch was incorrectly shut down the
last time it was used.
Step 13: Open

Caution: Only use friction style lighters to light a
torch.
Never use a lighter, m
atches or other torch to light

Adjust acetylene
and oxygen valve
until a neutral flame
is achieved.
