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
• Inflammation 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.
5. FW&"9%&W*(*[/&#'(*%$&%2'5*#%,89%3,#*#1
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe
fumes. Use enough ventilation or exhaust,
or both to keep fumes and gases away from your
breathing area. Where ventilation is questionable,
have a qualified technician take an air sampling
to determine the need for corrective measures.
If necessary, use mechanical ventilation to
improve air quality. If this is not possible, use an
approved respirator. Do not work in confined
areas unless they are well-ventilated or you are
wearing an air supplied ventilator. Always follow
OSHA guidelines for Permissible Exposure Limits
(PEL’s) for various fumes and gases.
Follow the American Conference of Governmental
Industrial Hygienists recommendations for the
Threshold Limit Values (TLV’s) for fumes and gases.
Have a recognized specialist in Industrial Hygiene
or Environmental Services check the operation
and air quality and make recommendations
for the specific welding or cutting situation.

When the flame goes out with a loud “pop,” it is
called a +,4X2"(*1 Backfire can be caused by:
a. Operating the Torch at lower pressures
than required for the Tip used.
b. Touching the Tip against the workpiece.
c. Overheating the Tip.
d. An obstruction in the Tip.
If backfire occurs, close the Torch Handle Valves
(oxygen first, then acetylene) and after
remedying the cause, relight the torch.

Flashback generally indicates a problem that should
be repaired before proceeding with the job at hand.
A clogged Tip, improper functioning of the Valves,

to flashback. Find and correct the cause before

Before turning
on Torch, gas
odor is noticed.
1. Hose connections loose.
2. Crack in hose.
3. Cylinder leak at neck.
1. Tighten all connections.
2. Check hoses. If any cracks are found, replace entire hose.
DO NOT PATCH OR TAPE GAS HOSES.
3. Check neck area of cylinders.
If cracks or damage are found, do not use.
Secure upright, in a well-ventilated area, well away from
sources of ignition. Contact gas supplier IMMEDIATELY.
Replace cylinders before proceeding with work.
Flame is irregular. 1. Tip clogged or dirty.
2. Gas low.
1. Close gas, acetylene first, then oxygen.
Let Torch cool completely.
Remove Tip, check for dirt and debris.
Use tip cleaner to clean Tip or replace if necessary.
2. Check gas level and refill if needed.

When ordering parts from this Parts List
and Diagram always take the number
from the Part column (on the left) and
add a suffix of F to the beginning.
For example: To order a Filter for this
regulator take the part number from the
Part column (6) and add an F to the
beginning. So you would order part A6.
