[Gasification] lighting

[Toby Seiler]

Doug and list;
   
  I guess that I did not mention that as a cutting torch, oxygen is also part of the cutting machinery, is mixed in the tip, has an anti blow back device and can withstand a lot of air without being blown out, positive or negative pressure.  I do suggest that the torch be lighted and adjusted prior to using it to light ones equipment.
   
  And I do not suggest that one fill any device with LP then try to light it, with or without a blower or suction.  
   
  I suggest however that because a cutting torch does have it's own oxygen, it may not even be necessary to turn on a blower and create suction or pressure prior to lighting and that the effect of that pressure could be avoided by the cutting torch with both LP and oxygen and a simple lighting port.  Fire up and then turn on the blower/suction.
