NOTE:
The torch is supplied without butane gas. Before use it must be fuelled as follows:
3.1.
GAS REFILLING
WARNING! Extinguish any nearby naked flames or sources of ignition. Use only high quality butane gas (lighter fuel).
3.1.1.
Ensure the ON/OFF adjustment knob is in the OFF position.
3.1.2.
Shake the gas container several times to warm the fuel up.
3.1.3.
Insert the container nozzle vertically down into the gas filling valve in the base of the gas tank.
3.1.4.
Use a pumping action to obtain the best results (fig.1).
3.1.5.
After filling, allow a few minutes for the gas to stabilise.
NOTE:
Before refilling, ensure that the filler valve and the probe on the can of lighter fluid are clean and free from dirt and debris.
Check that the correct filling adaptor is fitted to the lighter fluid refill can.
Ensure that the torch and the can of lighter fluid are at room temperature before commencing refill.
WARNING! Lighter fluid is highly flammable – refill in a well ventilated place, away from any sources of ignition.
3.1.6.
Fill in conjunction with the operating and safety instructions found on the can of lighter fluid.
3.1.7.
If any spillages occur during the refilling process, allow plenty of time for escaped gas to evaporate before allowing sources of ignition in
the vicinity.
3.1.8.
Once full, check the torch for leaks by listening for a hissing noise. If the hissing persists, do not ignite and remove the torch to a well
ventilated area until the gas has escaped –do not allow any ignition in the vicinity of the tool.
