Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the product will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the
product with a damaged part.
DO NOT use a product with a malfunctioning switch. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
power switch is dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service representative
before using.
Disconnect the power/air supply from the product and place the switch in the locked or off position
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
When possible, move the work to a location well away from combustible materials. If relocation is NOT
possible, protect the combustibles with a cover made of re resistant material. Remove or make safe all
combustible materials for a radius of 35 feet (10 meters) around the work area.
Enclose the work area with portable re resistant screens. Use a re resistant material to block all openings
and protect combustible walls, ceilings, oors, etc.
If working near/on a metal wall, ceiling, oor, etc., prevent ignition of combustibles on the other side
by moving the combustibles to a safe location. If relocation of combustibles is NOT possible, designate
someone to act as a re watch equipped with a re extinguisher during the welding or cutting process and
for at least one half hour after the welding or cutting project is completed.
DO NOT place the Torch on any material other than bare concrete until it has cooled completely.
DO NOT weld or cut any material that has a combustible coating or a combustible internal structure, such
as drums or tanks, without an approved method for eliminating the hazard.
DO NOT dispose of hot slag in containers holding combustible materials.
Keep a fully charged re extinguisher close by and know the proper way to use it.
After welding or cutting make a thorough check for evidence of re and be aware the easily visible ame
or smoke may not be present for some time after a re has started.
Clean and purge containers before applying heat. DO NOT apply heat to a container that has held an
unknown substance or a combustible material whose contents, when heated, can produce ammable or
explosive vapors. Vent closed containers, including castings, before preheating, cutting, or welding.
INHALATION HAZARD: Welding and Cutting Produce TOXIC FUMES. Exposure to welding or cutting
exhaust fumes can increase the risk of developing certain cancers, such as cancer of the larynx and lung
cancer. Also, some diseases that may be linked to exposure to welding or cutting exhaust fumes are: • Early
onset of Parkinson’s Disease • Heart disease • Ulcers • Damage to the reproductive organs • Inammation
of the small intestine or stomach • Kidney damage • Respiratory diseases such as emphysema, bronchitis,
or pneumonia Use natural or forced air ventilation and wear a respirator approved by NIOSH to protect
against the fumes produced to reduce the risk of developing the above illnesses.
WARNING: This product, when used for welding, plasma cutting, soldering, or similar applications,
