INSTRUCTIONS for F-995-G October, 2003 C-65 SCARFING TORCH These INSTRUCTIONS are for experienced operators. If you are not fully familiar with the principles of operation and safe practices for oxy-fuel gas equipment, we urge you to read our booklet Precautions and Safe Practices for Welding, Cutting and Heating, Form 2035. Do NOT permit untrained persons to install, operate, or maintain this equipment. Do NOT attempt to install or operate this equipment until you have read and fully understand these instructions. If you do not fully understand these instructions, contact your supplier for further information. The cutting torch covered by these instructions is listed by Underwriter s Laboratories only when using parts manufactured by ESAB Welding & Cutting Products, to the specifications on file with Underwriter s Laboratories, Inc., and when they are used in the gas service for which they are designed and listed. The use of other parts voids the manufacturer s warranty. F-995-G I. GAS SUPPLY AND REGULATION REQUIREMENTS A. PRESSURES The C-65 can be used with any fuel gas other than acetylene, such as natural gas, propane, and many proprietary gases. Fuel gas pressures of 5 to 20 psi are adequate for scarfing. The C-65 operates most efficiently under normal conditions with an oxygen pressure of 45 psi at the torch inlet. The torch is adjusted at the factory for this condition. Under unusual operating conditions, pipeline size and/or pressure may be inadequate to provide oxygen at this level. Under such conditions, a slight opening of the compensator valve (located in the torch body) may be necessary. Instructions for adjusting the compensator valve are given in section III-A. B. HOSE SIZES To obtain an oxygen pressure of 45 psi at the torch, the regulator must be set to a pressure sufficiently high to allow for the pressure drop through the hose. To avoid excessive pressure drop 1/2 inch hose and standard OXWELD C size hose fittings, such as P/N 2120399 (50-ft.), must be used. Hose larger than 1/2 inch may be required where lengths greater than 75 feet are used. With 50 feet of 1/2 inch hose, the approximate pressure drop will be 60 psi. The regulator must therefore be set to a delivery pressure of approximately 105 psi. With 75 feet of 1/2 inch hose, the approximate pressure drop will be 90 psi. The regulator must therefore be set to a delivery pressure of approximately 135 psi. Fuel gas hose should be 3/8 inch with B size fittings, such as P/N 2120404 (50-ft.). Also available is a fitted 65-ft. Scarfing Hose Assembly, P/N 2119324, which includes 50-ft. of 3/4" hose with D size fitting on one end for connecting to oxygen regulator spliced with 15-ft. of 1/2 hose with C fitting for torch connection, and 65-ft. of 3/8" fuel gas hose with B size fittings. C. STATION REGULATOR PANEL, P/N 2119101 This regulator panel includes the R-52 Oxygen Regulator (20A16) and the R-76-75-025 Fuel Gas Regulator (19153) conveniently mounted on a frame for wall mounting. The panel also includes shutoff and check valves, oxygen line filter, and gas safety valve. The R-52 Oxygen Regulator has ample capacity to meet gas flow requirements under normal operation conditions. However, to obtain the required delivery pressure at the regulator, the line pressure ahead of the regula- Be sure this information reaches the operator. You can get extra copies through your supplier.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS These Safety Precautions are for your protection. They summarize precautionary information from the references listed in Additional Safety Information section. Before performing any installation or operating procedures, be sure to read and follow the safety precautions listed below as well as all other manuals, material safety data sheets, labels, etc. Failure to observe Safety Precautions can result in injury or death. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS - Some welding, cutting and gouging processes are noisy and require ear protection. Hot metal can cause skin burns and heat rays may injure eyes. Training in the proper use of the processes and equipment is essential to prevent accidents. Also: 1. Always wear safety glasses with side shields in any work area, even if welding helmets, face shields, or goggles are also required. 2. Wear flameproof gauntlet type gloves, heavy long-sleeve shirt, cuffless trousers, high-topped shoes, and a welding helmet or cap for hair protection, to protect against hot sparks and hot metal. A flameproof apron may also be desirable as protection against radiated heat and sparks. 3. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sleeves, trousers cuffs, or pockets. Sleeves and collars should be kept buttoned, and open pockets eliminated from the front of clothing. 4. Protect other personnel from hot sparks with a suitable nonflammable partition or curtains. 5. Use goggles over safety glasses when chipping slag or grinding. Chipped slag may be hot and can travel considerable distances. Bystanders should also wear goggles over safety glasses. FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS - Heat from a flame can act as an ignition source. Hot slag or sparks can also cause fires or explosions. Therefore: 1. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or completely cover the materials with a protective nonflammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth, sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints and coatings, paper, etc. 2. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in floors or wall openings and cause a hidden smoldering fire on the floor below. Make certain that such openings are protected from hot sparks and metal. 3. Do not weld, cut, or perform any other hot work on materials, containers, or piping until it has been completely cleaned so that no substances on the material can produce flammable or toxic vapors. Do not do hot work on closed containers. They may explode. 4. Have fire extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose, a pail of water or sand, or portable fire extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its use. 5. After completing operations, inspect the work area to be sure that there are no hot sparks or hot metal which could cause a later fire. Use fire watchers when necessary. 6. For additional information, refer to NFPA Standard 51B, Fire Prevention in Use of Cutting and Welding Processes, which is available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. FUMES AND GASES - Fumes and gases, particularly in confined spaces, can cause discomfort or injury. Do not breathe fumes or gases from welding or cutting, Therefore: 1. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical ventilation means. Do not weld, cut, or gouge on materials such as galvanized steel, stainless steel, copper, zinc, lead, beryllium, or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is provided. Do not breathe fumes and gases from these materials. 2. If you develop momentary eye, nose, or throat irritation while operating, this is an indication that ventilation is not adequate. Stop work at once and take necessary steps to improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discomfort persists. 2 3. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 listed below for specific ventilation recommendations. 4. WARNING: This product, when used for welding or cutting, produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health & Safety Code 25249.5 et seq.) EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE - Faulty or improperly maintained equipment, such as torches, hoses and regulators, can result in poor work, but even more important, it can cause injury or death through fires. Therefore: 1. Always have qualified personnel perform the installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance work. Do not operate or repair any equipment unless you are qualified to do so. 2. Keep all oxy-fuel equipment free of grease or oil. Grease, oil, and other similar combustible materials, when ignited, can burn violently in the presence of oxygen. 3. Do not abuse any equipment or accessories. Keep equipment away from heat and wet conditions, oil or grease, corrosive atmospheres and inclement weather. 4. Keep all safety devices in position and in good repair. 5. Use equipment for its intended purpose. Do not modify it in any manner. GAS CYLINDER HANDLING - Gas cylinders, if mishandled, can rupture or explode violently. Sudden rupture of a cylinder, valve or relief device can injure or kill you. Therefore: 1. Use the proper gas for the process and use the proper pressure reducing regulator designed to operate from the compressed gas cylinder. Do not use adaptors to mount the regulator on the cylinder. Maintain hoses and fittings in good condition. Follow manufacturer s operating instructions for mounting the regulator to the gas cylinder. 2. Always secure cylinders in an upright position by chain or strap to suitable hand trucks, benches, walls, post, or racks. Never secure cylinders to work tables or fixtures where they may become part of an electrical circuit. 3. When not in use, keep cylinder valves closed. Have the valve protection cap in place on top of the cylinder if no regulators is installed. Secure and move cylinders by using suitable hand trucks. Avoid rough handling of cylinders. 4. Locate cylinders away from heat, sparks, or flame of a welding, cutting, or gouging operation. Never strike an arc on a cylinder. 5. For additional information, refer to CGA Standard P-1, Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders:, which is available from the Compressed Gas Association, 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202. ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION - For more information on safe practices for oxy-fuel welding and cutting equipment, ask your distributor for a copy of Precautions and Safe Practices for Gas Welding, Cutting, and Heating, Form 2035. Gas apparatus safety guidelines are also available on video cassettes from your distributor. The following publications, which are available from the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJuene Road, Miami, FL 33126, are recommended to you: 1. ANSI/AWS Z49.1 - Safety in Welding and Cutting. 2.

tor must be at least 10 lb. per sq. inch greater that is, at least 145 lb. per sq. in. (135 + 10). The R-76-75-025 Fuel Gas Regulator is designed for high flow delivery of fuel gas. D. CENTRAL REGULATION If the oxygen supply is regulated from a central point in a distribution line piping system, the R-83-40M Oxygen Station Regulator should be used. A single unit is usually sufficient, but several units may be required. Where operations are continuous and extremely heavy, an OXWELD R-600 Series Station Regulator may be needed. II. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS A. TO CONNECT Check that the packing nuts on the torch valves are snug. Attach the oxygen and fuel gas hoses to the torch. Use 1/2-in. hose for the oxygen supply and 3/8 in. hose for the fuel gas supply. Where lengths of hose greater than 75-ft. are desired, it may be necessary to use a section of larger than 1/2-in. hose in the oxygen line to reduce the pressure drop between the regulator and torch at normal operating flows. Attach an 1809, size 62 nozzle (see Table 1) to torch head, and tighten the connection nut firmly with a wrench. Insert the starting rod (steel rod,.178 to.195 in. in diameter) in the rear end of the rod feed body. Remove end burrs from starting rod prior to inserting. The rod must move freely. Slide it forward until the end is even with the tip of the nozzle. A 3/16" diam. x 36" long OXWELD No. 7 rod, Part No. 1031F15 (50 lb. package), is recommended, mainly because of its freedom from burrs and uniformity in size. B. TO ADJUST PRESSURES Oxygen Pressure If individual station regulators are used, connect an OXWELD test gauge adaptor (Part No. 21X48) between the oxygen hose and the torch. Set the delivery pressure on the oxygen regulator at 105 psi if using 50-ft. of hose, or at 135 psi if using 75-ft. of hose. Open the torch cutting oxygen valve and turn the pressureadjusting screw on the regulator until the test gauge TABLE I Nozzle Information 1809 Series Nozzle Scarfing Preheat Cleaning Drill Size Replacement Parts Path Holes Width Wear Ring Nozzle Size Part No. Preheat Cutting Assembly Nut 62 15X70 2-1/4 3-3/16 16 1/16 5/8 60Y92 37Z23 (57 81mm) TABLE II Gas Pressure & Consumption Data 1809 Series, Size No. 62 (P/N 15X70) (Pressure measured at the torch inlet connection) Cutting Oxygen Natural Gas Inlet Inlet Flow, Pressure Flow Pressure cfh psig (bars) cfh (m 3 /hr) psig (bars) (m 3 /hr) 20 (1.38) 4300 (123) 5 (0.35) 40 (1.13) 30 (2.07) 5600 (159) 10 (0.69) 75 (2.12) 40 (2.76) 7000 (198) 15 (1.04) 105 (2.97) 50 (3.45) 8300 (235) 20 (1.38) 130 (3.68) 60 (4.14) 9600 (272) Oil or grease is easily ignited and burns violently in the presence of oxygen under pressure.

shows a pressure of 45 lb. per sq. in. Note the exact pressure on the regulator gauge. Then release the pressure-adjusting screw of the regulator, release the torch cutting oxygen valve, and remove the test gauge from the line. Readjust the regulator (with the torch cutting valve open) until it shows the pressure noted during the test and then close the cutting oxygen valve. Fuel Gas Pressure Open the torch fuel gas valve and adjust the fuel gas delivery pressure at the regulator to between 10 and 20 psig. C. TO LIGHT THE TORCH Open the preheat oxygen valve just enough to provide a slight flow of preheat oxygen. Open the fuel gas valve one turn. Light the gas at the nozzle with a friction lighter. Adjust the flames with the preheat oxygen valve. Then open the cutting oxygen valve. If the flames blow away from the nozzle or blow away as soon as lit, close the fuel gas valve slightly, or if operations are controlled from the main line, reduce the fuel gas line pressure. Tables 1 and 2 give operating data as well as other useful information that will be helpful in the normal use of the C-65 torch. Cleaning drill sizes are specified in Table 1, and the oxygen and fuel gas flows for a range in operating pressure are given in Table 2 so as to give an indication of actual gas usage. The cutting oxygen pressure should normally be set at 45 psi with the cutting oxygen valve wide open so as to obtain a reasonably wide scarfing path width. The fuel gas pressure should be set at the high end of the range, although at times the available pressure at the supply station will be the controlling factor. When the torch pressures and torch valve adjustments (including the adjustment of the preheat oxygen compensator valve) are properly set, the preheat flames will be stable and should not blow off the end of the nozzle as the cutting oxygen lever is fully depressed and then released. The high velocity flames, pale in color (oxidizing), should be just below the blow-off point when the cutting oxygen valve is closed. D. TO FEED THE STARTING ROD With the rod adjusted until the end almost touches the preheat flames, press the torch cutting oxygen lever about halfway down. This movement feeds the rod, but does not open the cutting oxygen valve. Hold the lever at the halfway position until the rod is heated; then just push the lever all the way down to open the cutting oxygen valve. During the latter half of the stroke, the rod remains stationary. To feed the rod independent of the cutting oxygen, limit the movement of the valve lever to about half a stroke. To operate the cutting oxygen valve independently of the rod feed, confine the lever movement to the lower half of the stroke as would be desirable for fin burning. E. TO SHUT OFF First close the torch fuel gas valve, then the torch oxygen cutting valve. F. OPERATING PRECAUTIONS Improper handling of the torch may cause the flame to backfire go out with a loud snap. This may be caused by overheating the nozzle, by operating the torch at incorrect pressures, by a loose nozzle or by dirt on the nozzle seat. Should the flame flash back burn inside the torch immediately close the oxygen valve. Then close the fuel gas valve. After checking the apparatus for causes of flashback indicated above, relight the torch in the usual manner. If flashbacks occur repeatedly, the torch should be sent to ESAB Remanufacturing Center, 411 S. Ebenezer Road, Florence, SC 29501, or to your distributor. III. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS For all repairs other than those covered below, send the apparatus to ESAB Remanufacturing Center, 411 S. Ebenezer Road, Florence, SC 29501. Improperly repaired apparatus is hazardous. A. TORCH 1. The Preheat-Oxygen Compensator Valve Replacement of any of these parts will require readjustment of the compensator valve stem, as follows: a. Turn the adjustable stem in (clockwise) as far as it will go. b. Set the oxygen and fuel gas pressures, and light the torch in the usual manner. c. Open the fuel gas valve wide, and adjust the preheat oxygen valve until a high velocity pointed flame is obtained. d. Open the torch cutting oxygen valve. The preheat flames will become longer and blow off, indicating a lack of preheat oxygen. Hold the cutting oxygen valve open and adjust the compensator stem outward (counterclockwise), until the preheat flames show a minimum of change when the cutting oxygen valve is opened and closed. e. Any change in the cutting oxygen pressure at the torch will require readjustment of the compensator stem. An increase in pressure will require an inward (clockwise) adjustment, a decrease in pressure will require an outward (counterclockwise) adjustment. 4

2. Floating Mixer If the mixer becomes clogged, it may be removed for cleaning as follows: Unscrew the body plug between the two hose connections to the rear body. Remove the spring which holds the mixer in place. Screw a standard No. 10-32 machine screw, two inches or more in length, into the rear of the mixer and pull out the mixer. To clean the mixer, use a No. 35 drill (0.110 in. diameter) or a soft brass or copper wire; other tools might enlarge or bell-mouth the orifice, hence they should not be used.; If the mixer is bent, or if its tip has been badly nicked or marred, it should be replaced by a new one. Whenever the mixer is removed from the torch, the O ring should be replaced with a new one. Apply a light coat of soap film to the surface of the O ring and then insert the mixer carefully (with a twisting motion) into the torch to avoid damage to the O ring. 3. To Reseat the Head For reseating the head, use Tool No. 5230089 with Leak Test Solution (998771) as lubricant. If the nozzle nut threads in the head become fouled, they should be chased with a 1 3/8" - 18 tap, Tool No. 5240061. 4. Fuel Gas or Preheat-Oxygen Valves If leakage develops around the valve stems or if they turn too easily, tighten the packing nuts. If this does not help, replace the valve stem assembly. To seal the new valve stem assembly properly, the packing material should be molded in place. To do this, the packing nut should be tightened until it is difficult to turn the valve. Set the torch aside for 3 or 4 hours (preferably overnight), then back off the packing nut slightly until the proper friction is obtained for satisfactory valve adjustment. Test valve leakage around the nut and stem when the friction has been adjusted to the desired amount. If either torch valve does not shut off tightly, remove the valve stem assembly. Wipe the seating portions of the valve stem and body with a clean cloth. If the valve stem is damaged, the stem assembly should be replaced. If the valve still leaks, the valve should be reseated at ESAB Remanufacturing Center. 5. Cutting Oxygen Valve If leakage develops through the cutting valve, replace the valve seat. If leakage is around the valve stem, replace the stem O ring seal. Proceed as follows to replace these parts: a. Remove cutting lever mounting nut (186W58), retaining screw (34Z91), and lever bushing (92Z66) from lever (25Z56). Remove lever from torch. b. Unscrew valve stem guide (637431) from the valve body and carefully remove the cutting valve assembly. c. Using soapy water, moisten the cutting valve stem (48Z67) through the stem guide and slide the stem out of the guide. d. Remove the O ring seal (85W70), spring washer (637430), O ring (86W70) and valve spring (29Z37) from the valve stem. Discard the O rings. e. Remove seat retaining screw (6124-4880), washer (94Z08), and valve seat (52Z89) from the bottom of the valve stem. Discard the old valve seat. f. Carefully clean and examine valve stem, spring, guide, locknut and adjusting screw for damage and excessive wear. Replace parts as necessary. g. Install new valve seat (52Z89) (flat face in) and secure in place with washer and screw. h. Place new brass washer (94Z08) (countersink out) against seat. i. Install valve spring on top of upper valve shoulder, and slide washer on top of the spring. j. Apply a light coat of DuPont Krytox 240 (73585064) on a new O ring seal (85W10) and (86W70) and slide the O rings in place. k. Carefully slide the stem guide on the valve stem, over the spring washer and O ring (85W10). l. Insert the valve assembly in the torch valve body and tighten the valve guide until it seats firmly. m. Install the cutting valve lever on the torch and secure with the lever bushing, retaining screw and nut. B. START ROD FEEDER 1. Off-the-Nozzle Adjustment The rod feed body can be adjusted up or down for varying the distance between the nozzle face and the starting rod. An eccentric bolt (34Z89) and holding bolt (61641028) are provided for this adjustment. The two locknuts (186W59) are first loosened slightly and then the eccentric bolt can be turned until the desired distance between nozzle face and starting rod is obtained. Tighten the two locknuts firmly 2. To Replace Feed Block, Spring, and Guide Block To make these replacements, first remove the rod feed bottom cover (31Z76) by unscrewing the guide screw (37Z59). Then remove the guide block (39Z68) by unscrewing the attaching screw (34Z57) 5

with a socket wrench. Examine all parts for wear and distortion, and replace where needed. Parts most frequently requiring replacement will be feed block spring (28Z47) and the spring (28Z82) and balls (90A13) in guide block (39Z69). If guide block shows wear, it should also be replaced. Replacement of guide block spring and balls can be accomplished by first prying the spring (28Z82) out of the confining groove in the guide block. The two balls should fall free of the guide block. Install two new balls and new spring. Make sure the hole in the spring is centered over the countersink recess in the block groove. Carefully insert the guide block in rod feed body recess, with center bore approach taper facing out, and the hole in the spring and countersink recess in the guide block in line with the screw hole of the rod feed body. Replace attaching screw (34Z57), making sure the point of screw enters countersink recess in block for proper engagement. Tighten attaching screw securely, but do not overtighten. 3. Rod Feed Mechanism Replacements To replace rod feed lever (25Z52), spring (29Z25), pull rod (150Z39), or the entire rod feed assembly (63Y31), the rod feed assembly must be removed from the mounting bracket (150Z37). Proceed to do the following: a. Remove the snap ring (202-8372) and then the clevis pin (93Z42) from the side arm of the cutting lever (25Z56). b. Remove the four handle screws (61332996) and slide the handle (24Y28) down to the tube bracket (71Z94). c. Remove the rod feed eccentric bolt (34Z89) and holding bolt (61641028). Pull the feed rod assembly toward the torch head until pin (636203) that fastens pull rod lever (25Z52) is exposed. Remove pin to free the rod feed assembly from the torch. d. Pull rod can now be pulled back enough through the handle to replace spring (29Z77) if required. If replacing pull rod, unscrew clevis (71Z66) from the end of the rod and then remove the pull rod by pulling from the head end of the torch. e. To remove rod feed lever (25Z52) and spring (29Z25), drive out pin (185W02) from either side of rod feed body. Make sure the rod feed body is amply supported on the bottom. f. Reassemble all parts in reverse order. Before connecting the rear end of pull rod to the cutting lever side arm, the rod feed body should be firmly attached to the mounting bracket. It should be positioned so that a section of a 3/16" rod, when inserted in the rod feed, clears the end of the torch nozzle by approximately 1/8" and directly over the maximum number of preheat ports. g. The pull rod assembly should be adjusted so that the hole in the offset link, (150Z42) is in line with the hole in the side arm of the cutting lever. Only a very slight slack should remain in the pull rod assembly. h. If the rod does not feed properly after completing assembly, look for any points of binding between pull rod and torch. C. REPLACEMENT PARTS The 48-inch long torch is made up from the basic 42- inch long torch. This is accomplished by coupling the correct length extensions to the oxygen and mixer tubes to make up the extra length. Thus all parts shown in the C-65 (42-inch) parts picture are common to the 48- inch torch. The sketch in Fig. 1 shows the coupling and extensions used on the 42 and 48-inch torches.
