Filling
The product is shipped unlled for safety reasons. When using for the rst time, you must rst
ll the tank before using the product.
Attention!
Only use commercial lighter gas (isobutane gas) to ll the tank. Suitable rell
cartridges for this purpose are available for purchase (e.g. in 250 ml cans). If in
doubt, consult a specialist.
Never ll the product with other gases/uids. Never use unsuitable cartridges or
hose connections when lling! There is a great risk of re or explosion!
Fill the gas tank only in a well ventilated environment and avoid naked ames. There
is a risk of explosion!
Only ll the product after it has cooled down completely.
To ll, proceed as follows:
• First, remove the base (8). Turn the hot-gas burner so the lling valve (7) points vertically
upwards.
• Hold the lling tip of the lighter gas cartridge vertically downwards and stick it into the lling
valve. If necessary, use a suitable adapter (usually supplied with the lighter gas cartridge).
• Then press the lling tip of the lighter gas cartridge against the lling valve. The liqueed gas
now ows into the gas tank. End the lling procedure after 2 to 3 seconds. This lling process
can be repeated 2 or 3 times.
Stop the lling process immediately if any gas escapes. A gas-air mixture could arise
which could explode. Make sure that the room has been well ventilated before you
ignite the product or other sources of ignition.
Wait at least 3 minutes after lling before using the product to allow the gas rell to
stabilise.
Operation
a) Preparation
• Hold the product so the ame nozzle (1) points away from you. Also hold it so that the grip (6)
points downward.
• Slide the gas volume regulator (3) to the right.
• Turn the push button (5) to the right. This unlocks the push button.
b) Igniting the ame
• Press the push button (5) and hold it down rmly. Escaping gas is now ignited by the
integrated piezo ignition. The ame should begin burning.
• If only gas comes out and no ame, let go of the push button and press it again.
c) Flame size and ame type setting
• You can adjust how much gas comes out and how large the ame is by using the gas volume
regulator (3).
• Slide the regulator to the right (+) to increase the gas volume. The ame will be bigger.
• Slide the regulator to the left (–) to reduce the gas volume. The ame will be smaller.
• Use the air volume regulator (2) to adjust how much oxygen is added to the gas before
combustion.
d) Turning off ame, ending operation
• Release the push button (5). The gas valve closes and the ame goes out.
• Turn the push button to the left. This will lock the push button.
• Place the product in the supplied base (8) and let it cool down completely.
• Once the product is completely cooled off, it can be stored in a clean, dry location. Make sure
that the product is always stored upright. Use the provided base for this purpose.
e) Continued use
Use the locking lever (4) to activate continuous operation. Even if the push button (5) is
released, the ame will still burn.
Proceed as follows:
• Press and hold the push button and rmly.
• Slide the locking lever to the left.
• Release the push button. The ame continues to burn.
• To extinguish the ame, slide the locking lever to the right.
Troubleshooting
Flame does not burn or goes out again immediately:
• Slide the gas volume regulator (3) to the right before pressing the push button (5). Only after
a successful ignition should you adjust the desired ame intensity.
• If the regulator is turned too far to the left, too little gas comes out and a ammable mixture
will not form.
• The gas tank is empty and must be relled.
The push button for the ignition function cannot be pressed:
• Turn the push button (5) to the right. This unlocks the push button.
Gas comes out during lling:
• Use the right adapter during lling. Normally, this is provided with every lighter gas cartridge.
Care and cleaning
• Allow the product to cool down completely before cleaning.
• Never use aggressive detergents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, as these could
damage the casing or cause the product to malfunction.
• Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
Disposal
Always dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory regulations.
