Replacing the torch lead

2. Disconnect the cap-sensor switch.

Figure 29

3. Remove the pilot terminal screw.

4. Use 2 wrenches to loosen the gas fitting that secures the torch body to the torch lead.

Heating the gas fitting can help loosen the threadlocker and make removing the torch
body easier. Slowly heat only the fitting with a heat gun until you can easily loosen the
fitting.
