propane gas supply container if the POL is broken

an L.B. White POL fi tting. Failure to do so can
result in fi res, explosions, loss of property, injury
or death.

propane vapor withdrawal only. Do not use the
torch in a propane liquid withdrawal system or
application. If you are in doubt, contact L.B.White
Company.

maintain the torch by using this Owner's Manual.
Make sure you know how to shut off the gas sup-
ply to the torch. Contact your fuel gas supplier if
you have any questions.

or maintenance procedures must be eliminated
