<p><b>New page</b></p><div>OXYGEN -- Be aware that many petroleum products can spontaneously combust when they come in contact with pure oxygen. Never use oil or oil base products on your regulators or equipment.<br />
PROPANE -- Never operate your regulator above bare metric pressur or the red line. This will cause liquid propane in your lines which will consequently come out your torch with a huge uncontrollable flame<br />
Flashback Arrestors or Check Valves are advised with the use of all regulators.SAFETY TIPS<br />
Be prepared for your project. Have your work site and tools set up prior to turning on the flame.<br />
Know your equipment and surrounding.<br />
Make sure ventilation is on.<br />
Be considerate of your neighbor workers. Do Not make sudden moves or distract others at the flame.<br />
Always ask before borrow another person's equipment.<br />
We also recommend getting sylvanite (burn ointment), from your local pharmacist.<br />
Avoid creating hazardous waste, i.e. stringers and bubble trash.<br />
Do not force the glass, get it hotter.<br />
Do not burn the glass (looks white-bubbly), move faster.</div>Mermonkey
