most petrol blow-lamps, have a recess around the top centre of the petrol reservoir. you pour a little meths into that, pump the petrol reservoir pump-handle, with the petrol valve closed. as the meths heats the petrol pipe, coiled inside the flame nozzle, that converts the liquid petrol stream, inside that petrol pipe, into vapour. the meths flame ignites the vapour, when you slightly open the petrol valve. adjust the valve, to produce , to a faintly-visible blue flame, that makes a roaring noise. it's running1 To switch-off, close the petrol valve, and leave to cool.
you use it in wrong way the right way is as follow 1- release the back valve 2- push the presser continuously until kerosene come out of the eye 3- fire the kerosene and leave it for a while until it builds the starter pressure from cold state and got hot. 4- push the presser again to build high pressure 5- back valve is used to control the fire out of the torch start using it to close it release the internal pressure by slightly release the cover of the tank where you put the kerosene. that's it.
jesus christ. first off, run it on kerosene, otherwise the air/fuel mix is wrong. secondly, let the pan in the base fill with fuel before shutting off the valve and lighting. that will preheat the vapour jet and get the torch to run properly, otherwise you will get that pulsing sputter. Also, just try to avoid this type of torch if at all possible, they are prone to cause severe burns if not taken proper care of.
00 This is not the way to light it. this is a wrong way and never use petrol instead of kerosene or diesel.00 DONT pump it first and dont close the head tap (black) fully. 1 take a metal rode of very small gauge . 2.put some cotton on the head of the stick and add some kerosene to it. 3.light the cotton and put it on the spirit cup or inside of the side gap near the spray head inside. 4.wait for some times and give some time to heat well 5.then 2/3 times pump the piston and suddenly take the metal stick back. 6.slowly pump it and give more pressure. and dont pump it wildly. 7.slowly tight the back tap (black) until good flame comes. 8.use air screw on the tank to off the heater. and dont use the back srew on the head to off the flame. 9.if it shows any difficulties in firing between firing or not getting good flame when it is flaming badly then use the pin tool. close the spray head inside the scilenser with the pin tool when it is firing. sudenly the flame stop and take the pin back. u can see the fine and powerull diesel spray quikly take a lamb and light the sray as a blue and fine fire. and thanks for reading.
The blow lamps works with kerosene and not gasoline. Once heated with methylated spirit or surgical spirit, the gasifier at the top vapourizes the pressurised kerosene. The blow lamp flame should be mostly blue high temperature, and not soothy yellow. Use kerosene. Otherwise it's dangerous.
@@AS-ug2vq . Gasoline, known as petrol, is a dangerous volatile inflammable fuel. I do not think that blow lamps exist that work on gasoline, and if they do they would be lethal. People make confusion between gasoline and kerosene, the latter being also known as paraffin or lamp oil. Kerosene is a non-volatile and less dangerous liquid fuel.
@@luiginocm I know what gasoline is bro, there is gasoline blowtorch. Google it, there are patents published too. It works without vapouriser coil unlike kerosene which has higher flash point so needs vapouriser in the burn tube.
@@AS-ug2vq . Thanks, I did some research on patents. As you said gasoline has a lower temperature flash point. I wonder whether accidents did happen if kerosene blow torches were erroneously filled with gasoline, due to the large vaporiser coil in direct contact with the torch. The gasoline ones induced people to handle gasoline when pouring, using funnels, etc. Imagine smoking a cigarette...... Anyway, these blow torches are wonderful, particularly for me the kerosene ones. My dad used these often to solder and make some tin repairs (DIY, not by profession) and to peel off old paint from wooden doors at home. 1960s and 1970s. Good old days.
very nice, nice disassembly. I have an otto bernz one from the early 1900s. trying to get it to work is hard. so imma try to use your disassemble video to help. needs restoring.
Why did you keep swirling it around? Is there a wick in that one? This video is an example of why you watch other people’s videos to learn how to use an unfamiliar tool before you try to use one yourself.
It is obvious this fool has jumped straight into playing with this torch without having read any instructions, or done some research. It's people like this that give these kerosene blow torches a bad name as being very dangerous. When used properly they can be a good addition to any garage or workshop. Read instructions people!
+Mott theHoople Actually this is sold as a kerosene blowtorch, I was using it with gasoline... In the following video at 2:52 is visible that is a kerosene blowtorch ► th-cam.com/video/FJgLiRLXgDc/w-d-xo.html
Oh GOD... My dad gave me a heap of old torches and he said Never ever run them on petrol only Kero.He saw many people blow themselves up with these torches over the years even when they were new.
I'm just waiting to see him try to shut it down by releasing the air pressure and watching it turn into a gigantic blowtorch if it's designed to run on kerosene then you run it on kerosene you don't run it on gas
Hi smart guy,your video show few time the torch label, it is kerosene blowtorch,both write English and Chinese, not a Gasoline torch. Why you not try kerosene? I like your disassembly video
Gas stations sell gasoline diesel and eventually LPG... So I did not bothered yet to search for kerosene ;) Kerosene has more carbon atoms, so it should be a bit thicker (higher viscosity) than gasoline, but less than Diesel.
If you don't know whether it is a paraffin (kerosene) or petrol (gasoline) lamp, make sure that you have the 'phone number of your local hospital to hand!! You will probably need it! Most of these old lamps have a safety warning in RED that says use only the correct fuel. Does yours? Ah yes: 12:56 time, there is a clue!!
yes but i think you made many set up mistakes ,im not expert but also judging from other comments they say the same,,i hope it is now working properly and you are using the right fuel ,you should clean all the parts and try again using methanol to heat the tip and kerosene for the fuel

3- fire the kerosene and leave it for a while until it builds the starter pressure from cold state and got hot.
4- push the presser again to build high pressure
5- back valve is used to control the fire out of the torch
start using it
to close it release the internal pressure by slightly release the cover of the tank where you put the kerosene.
that's it.

00 This is not the way to light it. this is a wrong way and never use petrol instead of kerosene or diesel.00 DONT pump it first and dont close the head tap (black) fully.
1 take a metal rode of very small gauge .
2.put some cotton on the head of the stick and add some kerosene to it.
3.light the cotton and put it on the spirit cup or inside of the side gap near the spray head inside.
4.wait for some times and give some time to heat well
5.then 2/3 times pump the piston and suddenly take the metal stick back.
6.slowly pump it and give more pressure. and dont pump it wildly.
7.slowly tight the back tap (black) until good flame comes.
8.use air screw on the tank to off the heater. and dont use the back srew on the head to off the flame.

Can this be used for killing weeds?
NOT know anything. A torch does not turn that way, you must first heating with alcohol and then will you open the gasifier.
it was preheated at 2:07
Not enough
Why did you keep swirling it around? Is there a wick in that one?
This video is an example of why you watch other people’s videos to learn how to use an unfamiliar tool before you try to use one yourself.
but did you have to burn the twigs and leaves ? which can be do by normal fire
Can this using diesel gasoline?
can you provide a link to purchase one of these , I can not find one anywhere , Thank you !
just search "Blowtorch" on www.ebay.com or any local online store
Make sure you have enough pressure in it before lighting it up, and clean out the small orifice.
Where did you buy it?

Keep touching the shiny part where the fire comes out :-)
When it was shiny it wasn't hot :)

Soooo these lamps really run on Petrol?? Fairdinkum ? I would not be brave enough.All mine run on Kero

gasoline will generate higher pressure?
furulevi Im sure But if they bang it will be spetacular
Spilled kerosene is less likely to catch on fire. You'd have to preheat it to 38C/100F before you could even light it.
try preheating with abit of fire rope in the sprite dish out of the wind
Use methylated spirits to get it started. Purple flammable liquid you can buy in a bottle.

@@furulevi use lamp oil
@@furulevi diesel would also work
Wow. It's most dangerous feature is it's invisibility.
That's above itvs use of liquid fuel and potential to be a firebomb
much better to just pump it up, and slightly open the valve while it's cold to fill the flash pan
Where purchase any link???
Pls give ...

i guess that is why there are no visible flames coming out of a jet engine either,,same principal
Complete burning (I think).
yes but i think you made many set up mistakes ,im not expert but also judging from other comments they say the same,,i hope it is now working properly and you are using the right fuel ,you should clean all the parts and try again using methanol to heat the tip and kerosene for the fuel
you should have used funnel,,easier
you could just use butane like normal people..

Great video thanks sir for that
