How Do I Maintain The Vulcan Torch?
Proper care and maintenance will keep your Vulcan torch working safely and efficiently for years. Follow these simple steps for refilling and basic troubleshooting.
How Do I Refill The Vulcan Torch Safely?
- Bleed the Tank: Turn the torch upside down. Use a small tool to press the fill valve to release any trapped air and leftover fuel until the hissing stops.
- Set the Flame Adjuster: Turn the flame adjustment dial to its lowest setting (-).
- Insert the Butane Nozzle: Turn the torch upside down again and insert the nozzle of your butane can directly into the fill valve.
- Fill the Tank: Press down firmly for 5-6 seconds. Some sputtering is normal. Do not overfill.
- Let it Rest: Allow the torch to sit for 3-5 minutes. This lets the gas stabilize and reach room temperature.
- Test and Adjust: Ignite the torch away from your face and adjust the flame to your desired height.
What Should I Do If My Torch Won't Light?
If your torch sputters or fails to ignite, trapped air in the tank is the most common cause. First, try bleeding the tank as described in the refilling steps. Second, ensure you are using high-purity butane, as oils from cheaper fuel can clog the nozzle. If problems continue, the ignition spark may be misaligned.
