Place the dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of
dust cap on the cylinder valve that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result

Use only the pressure regulator and hose assembly provided with this pao torch. Replacement pressure
regulators and hose assemblies must be specied by the manufacturer. Do not store a spare propane cylinder

with an excess ow device. In order to aain full ow to the torch, the valve must be in the o posion when
the cylinder valve is turned on.
