Propane Gas Torch Warning Propane gas torches are highly flammable and

should be kept away from heat or flame, and should not be exposed to

prolonged sunlight. Propane gas torches should only be used in

well-ventilated areas. When lighting a propane gas torch, place the torch on

a flat, steady surface, facing away from you. Light the match or lighter and

then open the gas valve. Light the gas jet, and blow out the match. Always

turn off the burner valve to " finger tight " when finished using the torch.

Children should never use a propane gas torch without adult supervision.
