An ideal multi-purpose butane-powered gas torch / soldering iron, that is
portable and lightweight, and suitable for soldering, heating, shrinking insulation
(heat-shrink), hot knife cutting and many other applications. It features
piezoelectric ignition and is supplied with a variety of attachments plus a safety
cap for storage (refer to Fig. 1).
Gas filling & refilling:
• Use only high quality butane gas to fill the torch.
• If applicable, let the torch fully cool down before gas filling.
• Ensure the trigger (12) is turned to the OFF position before filling.
• Invert the unit; insert the gas container’s nozzle vertically into filling valve (16).
• When gas escapes from filling valve, remove the nozzle from the filling valve.
The unit comes fitted with the standard
fine soldering tip fitted to the torch.
1. Refer to Fig. 2 - using your thumb, rotate the
safety lock (13) upwards so that the locking
tang swings out and away from the body of
the torch.
2. Then press trigger/igniter (12) down to ignite
the gas.
3. Approximately three (3) seconds after
ignition, the catalyst can be seen through the
hole in the attachment and glows red as it
heats up.
4. Move the shut-off lever (14) to the left to
keep the gas flowing to the soldering head.
Then the trigger/igniter (12) can be released.
To switch off:
1. Move the shut-off lever (14) to the right; this switches off the flow of gas.
2. Make sure the unit is completely cool before fitting the protective cap (2) or
replacing back into storage case.
Use as Gas Torch:
To use as a gas torch without any of the attachments, remove the heat guard (18)
and catalyst housing / soldering head (19) by unscrewing the clamping collar (17).
Then ignite as explained in section above.
Flame length or temperature adjustment:
Once ignited, either using as a gas torch, or with one of the attachments fitted, the
flame length or attachment temperature is adjusted by the gas flow control (15),
maximum flow achieved when the control is positioned to the right.
Only use the minimum flame required for the job in hand.
Fitting or changing attachments:
Note: Always allow unit to cool before removing or replacing soldering tips or
attachments.
• Use either the 7mm or 8mm wrench to tighten or unscrew attachments.
Foam pad for tip cleaning:
The foam pad for tip cleaning is initially supplied dry. Add a small amount of water
to the foam pad before use and allow foam to expand. When using the soldering
attachments wipe the tips clean regularly on the foam to keep them free of excess
solder and oxidisation.
