3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating welding

equipment. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the

work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as

needed. Children should not be allowed in the work area.

5. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.

Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing

and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

TOOL USE AND CARE

7. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the

workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is

unstable and may lead to loss of control.

8. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

SKU 95671 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 PAGE 3

9. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools

are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

10. Maintain tools with care. Keep the welding equipment clean. Properly

maintained tools are less likely to malfunction and are easier to control. Do not use

a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.

11. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and

any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained

tools.

12. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your

model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous

when used on another tool.

PERSONAL SAFETY

4. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when oper-

ating welding equipment. Do not use welding equipment while tired or

under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inatten-

tion while operating welding equipment may result in serious personal injury.

13. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service

or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

14. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow

instructions in the

“Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning”

section of this

manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions

may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

SERVICE

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. Maintain labels and nameplates on the Welding Torch Mini-Kit. These carry

important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for

a replacement.

2. Maintain a safe working environment. Keep the work area well lit. Make sure

there is adequate surrounding workspace. Always keep the work area free of

obstructions, grease, oil, trash, and other debris.

3. Prevent eye injury and burns. Wearing and using personal safety clothing and

safety devices reduce the risk for injury. Wear ANSI approved welding goggles (not

included) featuring at least a number 10 shade lens rating. Leather leggings, fire

resistant shoes or boots should be worn when using this product. Do not wear

pants with cuffs, shirts with open pockets, or any clothing that can catch and hold

molten metal or sparks. Keep clothing free of grease, oil, solvents, or any flammable

substances. Wear dry, insulating gloves and protective clothing. Wear an approved

head covering to protect the head and neck. Use aprons, cape, sleeves, shoulder

covers, and bibs designed and approved for welding and cutting procedures. When

welding or cutting overhead or in confined spaces, wear flame resistant ear plugs or

ear muffs to keep sparks out of ears.

4. Prevent accidental fires. Remove any combustible material from the work area.

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 fire

resistant material. Remove or make safe all combustible materials for a radius of 35

feet (10 meters) around the work area. Use a fire resistant material to cover or

block all open doorways, windows, cracks, and other openings. Enclose the work

area with portable fire resistant screens. Protect combustible walls, ceilings, floors,

etc., from sparks and heat with fire resistant covers. If working on a metal wall,

ceiling, 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 serve as a fire watch, equipped with a fire extinguisher, during the

welding process and for at least one half hour after the welding is completed. Do

not weld or cut on materials having a combustible coating or combustible internal

SKU 95671 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 PAGE 4

structure, as in walls or ceilings, without an approved method for eliminating the

hazard. Do not dispose of hot slag in containers holding combustible materials.

Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and know how to use it. After welding or cutting,

make a thorough examination for evidence of fire. Be aware that easily visible

smoke or flame may not be present for some time after the fire has started. Do not

weld or cut in atmospheres containing dangerously reactive or flammable gases,

vapors, liquids, and dust. Provide adequate ventilation in work areas to prevent

accumulation of flammable gases, vapors, and dust. Do not apply heat to a container

that has held an unknown substance or a combustible material whose contents,

when heated, can produce flammable or explosive vapors. Clean and purge

containers before applying heat. Vent closed containers, including castings, before

preheating, welding, or cutting.

5. Avoid overexposure to fumes and gases. Always keep your head out of the

fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. Use enough ventilation or exhaust, or both, to

keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and general area. Where ventilation

is questionable, have a qualified technician take an air sampling to determine the

need for corrective measures. Use mechanical ventilation to improve air quality. If

engineering controls are not feasible, use an approved respirator. Work in a confined

area only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Follow

OSHA guidelines for Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL’s) for various fumes and

gases. Follow the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists

recommendations for 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.

SKU 95671 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 PAGE 5

7. Read and understand all instructions and safety precautions as outlined in

the manufacturer’s manual for the material you will weld or cut.

6. Always keep the Welding Hoses (7, 8) away from moving parts on the tool.

Examine the Welding Hoses for cuts, burns, or worn areas before each use. If any

damaged areas are found, replace the Welding Hoses immediately.

8. Proper cylinder care. Secure cylinders to a cart, wall, or post, to prevent them

from falling. All cylinders should be used and stored in an upright position.

Never drop or strike a cylinder. Do not use cylinders that have been dented.

Cylinder caps should be used when moving or storing cylinders. Empty cylinders

should be kept in specified areas and clearly marked “empty”.

9. Never use oil or grease on any inlet connector, outlet connector, or cylin-

der valves.

10. Always use reverse-flow check valves (not included) on the torch and

regulator. This greatly reduces the possibility of mixing gases in the regulator or

hose.

11. Working pressure on the Acetylene Regulator should NEVER be set above

6 PSI.

12. For the Cutting Attachment, inspect the tapered seating surfaces on the

Tip and in the Torch Head. Have a qualified technician resurface the seat area

if it has dents, burrs, or is burned. A poor seating surface may result in

backfire

flashback

13. Backfire and flashback. When the flame goes out with a loud “pop”, it is called

backfire

. Backfire can be caused by (1) operating the Torch at lower pressures

than required for the Tip used, (2) touching the Tip against the workpiece, (3)

overheating the Tip, or (4) an obstruction in the Tip. If backfire occurs, shut off

the Torch Handle Valves (oxygen first) and after remedying the cause, relight the

Torch. A

flashback

is a condition that results when the flame flashes back into

the Torch and burns inside with a shrill hissing or squealing noise. If flashback

occurs, close the Torch Handle Valves (oxygen first), IMMEDIATELY. Flashback

generally indicates a problem that should be repaired. A clogged Tip, improper

functioning of the Valves, or incorrect acetylene/oxygen pressure could lead to

flashback. Make sure to find the cause before relighting the Torch.

5. IMPORTANT! The Pressure Adjusting Screw on the Acetylene Regulator (not

included) and the Pressure Adjusting Screw on the Oxygen Regulator (not included)

should be opened slightly by turning counterclockwise to relieve pressure on the

regulator diaphragms before opening the cylinder valves. If this is not done, pres-

sure from the cylinders may damage the diaphragms and render the regulators

inoperable. (See Figure B.)

6. Check connections for leaks. Adjust the Acetylene Regulator and Oxygen Regulator

operating pressure to coincide with the Tip used (1, 12, 13, 14, 15). Use an approved

leak detection solution to check for leaks at the Welding Hoses (7, 8) and cylinder

valve connections. If leaks are found, tighten the nuts more securely. If a leak still

persists, discontinue use and call your gas supplier. (See Figures B and C.)

7. WARNING! NEVER set the Acetylene Regulator to a delivery pressure

above that of which is required for a specific Tip (1, 12, 13, 14, 15) used.
