Installing the Different Tips
The AFA-1 and AFP-1 have quick connect tips. Simply select the tip size you would like to use and insert it
into the torch handle. Pull back on the collar on the top of the torch handle and fully insert the tip into the han-
dle. Releasing the collar will lock the tip into place. Gently pull on the quick connect tip to assure that it is
attached to the torch handle.
The AFA-2 has screw connect tips. Simply thread the tip into the top of the torch handle and tighten with a
wrench.
