SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to the tool safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

Use the correct tool forthe job. This tool was designed for a specific function. Do not modify or alter this tool or use it for an unintended purpose.
Do not use the tool if any parts are damaged, broken or misplaced. Repair or replace the parts.
Do not move, handle or service while hot or burning. Do not attach or remove a hot or operating tool from the propane tank. The hot tool can cause a severe burn injury. Allow the tool to cool before handling.
Use only propane gas. Do not use liquid propane.
Before connecting the tool to the propane tank, make sure the tool regulator knob is in the OFF position. Always connect and light the tool in areas free of open flames.
Only use the hose and regulator assembly provided with the tool.
Inspect the hose assembly before each use. If there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, replace the hose before using the tool again. The hose and regulator must be protected from damage.
Do not use if tools wet or was immersed in water. This will reduce the effectiveness of the insulation. Have a service technician inspect the forge and control system before using it again.

FUMES AND GASES

WARNING! If at any time a gas odour is detected, immediately discontinue operation until the source of gas has been located and corrected.
WARNING! Stop working and move to a location with ventilation if your eyes, nose or throat become irritated. This indicates the ventilation is not adequate to remove the fumes. Do not resume working until the ventilation is improved and the discomfort ceases. Seek medical attention if the symptoms do not diminish or if the you experiences nausea, dizziness or malaise.

Only work in a confined space if the area is well ventilated or while wearing a respirator or an air-supplied respirator.
The area must be well ventilated. Provide a minimum opening of 1 sq. ft. (0.093 m?) near the floor and 1sq. ft. (0.093 m?) near the ceiling.

COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDER PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! Improper handling or maintenance of compressed gas cylinders and regulators can result in serious injury or death. Do not use a cylinder or its contents for anything other than its intended use.
Consult the safety instructions on the cylinder or provided by your gas supplier.

Do notdeface or alter the name, number or other markings on cylinder. Do not connect a regulator to a cylinder that contains a gas that the regulator was not designed to handle.
Do not expose a cylinder to excessive heat, sparks, slag, flame or any other heat source.
Always change a cylinder carefully to prevent leaks and damage to the cylinder’s walls, valve or safety devices.
Gases in the cylinder are under pressure. Protect the cylinder from bumps, falls, falling objects and harsh weather. A punctured cylinder under pressure can become a lethal projectile. If a cylinder is punctured, do not approach until all pressure is released.
4.1 Protect the valve and regulator. Damage to either can result in regulator’s explosive ejection from the cylinder.
Always secure a gas cylinder in a vertical position
5.1 Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected to physical damage.
Do not use a wrench or hammer to open a cylinder valve that cannot be opened by hand. Notify your supplier for instructions.
Do not modify or exchange gas cylinder fittings.
Close the cylinder valve and immediately remove the faulty regulator fromservice for repair, if any of the following conditions exist:
8.1 Gas leaks externally.
8.2 Delivery pressure continues to rise with the downstream valve closed.
Do not attempt to make regulator repairs. Send faulty regulators to the manufacturer’s designated repair centre.
Compressed gas cylinders must not be located in a confined space with the person welding to prevent the possibility of leaks displacing the oxygen.

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

Letter references in parenthesis (A) refer to the included Identification Key.
Dashed numbers in parenthesis (Fig. 1-1) refer to a specific point in an illustration or image.

LOCATION

IMPORTANT! Consult and follow municipal regulations before installing.
WARNING! Install at least one meter from all walls or make sure the walls are constructed of fire brick or a similar heat resistant material. Wood and non- heat resistant structures can ignite.

Bolt to a steel workbench or a bench constructed with fire brick capable of handling the generated heat (see Specifications).
The opening must face away from all structures, as heat and flame may escape.
2.1 This also allows enough room forays insertion and removal of the heated metal blank.
The location must have sufficient ventilation to remove fumes and to provide enough air to allow combustion.
3.1 Do not position in such a manner that the breeze carries the fumes towards you. Position it so there is a cross breeze.
3.2 Install under an exhaust hood or duct if possible.

ASSEMBLY

DANGER! Only use gas-rated thread sealant tape (yellow colour) for gas connections. The thinner plumbing thread sealant tape will allow gas to leak and that can result in a fire or explosion

Remove the screws from the top of the unit (Fig. 1-1).
Fit the burner (C) gas exhaust pipes into the openings (Fig. 2).
Push down until the pipes push through the insulation (Fig. 3).
Replace the screws and fasten tightly.
The back of the regulator (H) identifies each port (Fig. 4). Wrap gas-rated sealant tape on the following three connections before screwing them into place.
5.1 Screw the pressure gauge into the GAUGE port (Fig. 4-3).
5.2 Screw the gas hose into the OUT port (Fig. 4-1).
5.3 Screw the cylinder connector into the IN port (Fig. 4-2).
Make sure that the propane tank valve and the ball valve are both closed before proceeding.
Screw the gas hose’s (F) gas compression coupler to the ball valve on the burner unit (Fig. 5).
Screw the cylinder connector’s gas compression coupler into the propane tank (Fig. 6).

OPERATION

WARNING! Clear the installation location of all combustible materials to avoid a fire. Flames and heat may issue from the access opening.
WARNING! Shut the propane Fig. 6 cylinder’s valve off if you smell gas and open windows and doors to ventilate the area. Leaking propane may ignite and result in a fire or explosion.

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKAGE

Slowly open the cylinder valve.
Set the flow rate on the regulator to approximately 2 to 3 PSI.
Close the cylinder valve and pay attention to the needle indicator on the pressure gauge (D) and wait 15 minutes. If the needle drops away towards zero, there is a gas leak.
After confirming there is a loss of gas, check all connectors and clamps for leakage by brushing or spraying with soapy water. Bubbles will appear at the leakage point.
Tighten clamps or fittings to eliminate gas leakage. Replace the clamps and fittings if this fails to solve the problem.

IGNITING

WARNING! Shut the gas off if it fails to ignite after a few seconds to avoid an explosion or uncontrolled fire. Allow the gas to disperse before attempting to ignite the forge again.

Turn the propane cylinder knob to release the gas.
Adjust the pressure level by turning the regulator knob (Fig. 7-1).
Watch the pressure gauge and note when it reaches 5 PSI.
Open the ball valve to allow the gas to flow into the forge.
Press the ignition button and the gas should ignite.5.1 Use a long multi-purpose (extended) lighter as an alternative ignition source.
5.1.1 Stand behind the forge, away from the door (A) in case there is an explosion.
5.1.2 Place the lighter slightly into the pass through (1) and ignite (Fig. 8 ). 5.1.3 Turn the gas on and wait forthe gas to ignite.
Adjust the pressure regulator knob to increase or decrease heat level.
