DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This torch is a combustion appliance. All com-
bustion appliances produce carbon monoxide
(CO) during the combustion process. This
product is designed to produce extremely
minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO if used
and maintained in accordance with all warn-
ings and instructions. Do not block air flow into
or out of the torch.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces
flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches,
dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You
can’t see it and you can’t smell it. It’s an invisi-
ble killer. If these symptoms are present dur-
ing operation of this product get fresh
air immediately!
• For outdoor use only.
• Never use inside house, camper, tent, vehi-
cle or other unventilated or enclosed
areas. This torch consumes air (oxygen).
Do not use in unventilated or enclosed
areas to avoid endangering your life.
CAUTION
• SERVICE SAFETY
• Use only propane set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Keep all connections and fittings clean.
Inspect propane cylinder and torch propane
connections for damage before attaching.
• During set up, CHECK FOR LEAKS in one or
more ways: Apply soapy water to connections.
Look for bubbles. Listen for hiss of escaping
gas. Feel for extreme cold. Smell for rotten
egg odor. Never use a flame.
Do not use if leaking.
• Use as a lighting appliance only. Never alter in
any way or use with any device or part not
expressly approved by Coleman.
• Never use as a space heater.

from excess heat.
Technical
Characteristics
Input: 2,200 BTU/HR
Category: Pressure regulated propane
Fuel: 16.4 oz. disposable propane cylinders
Regulator: 3150
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane
gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An
odorant is normally added to help detect leaks
and can be described as a ”rotten egg” smell.
The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas
is not always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking
propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It
can ignite by ignition sources including match-
es, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind
many feet away from the original leak. Use
only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compli-
ance with local ordinances and codes or with
ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use.
WARNING
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open
flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other igni-
tion sources or where temperatures exceed
120 degrees F (49°C).
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumu-
late in low places. If you smell gas, leave the
area immediately.
• Never install or remove propane tank while
torch is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other
ignition sources or while torch is hot to touch.
• During operation, this product can be a source
of ignition. Never use the torch in spaces that
contain or may contain volatile or airborne
combustibles, or products such as gasoline,
solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or
unknown chemicals. Minimum clearances
from house, wooden deck, or any other
combustible materials: 72 inches from the
sides and 72 inches from the top.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air.
• Proper torch operation produces a yellow
flame approximately 6 - 8 inches tall.
