d) Make sure that the manometers are seated securely on the acetylene and
oxygen pressure regulator. Replace damaged manometers only with original
Rothenberger replacement parts.
e) Safety check valve for oxygen and acetylene to be used in intellectual property
applications.
5) Service
Have your device repaired only by qualified experts and only with original
replacement parts. This ensures the continued safety of the device.
1.3 Special safety instructions
Acetylen gas is highly flammable, colourless, heavier than air, and has a perceptible odour.
Cartridges and acetylene tanks must not be handled by children.
Store the acetylene tanks and oxygen tanks in a well-ventilated area.
Do not smoke when working near the tanks.
Keep the cartridges and oxygen tanks away from ignition sources.
Check the screw joints’ tightness using foaming substances (e.g., soapy water, leak detection
spray).
Close the tank valves during malfunctions and after work.
Do not use the device in a horizontal position. When cartridges lie flat, liquid MAXI gas enters
the gas cartridge valve and the burner nozzle, and that leads to malfunctions.
Acetylene gas transport or do not operate lying. (Acetone leaks out).
