7 – Torch Component Replacement
Replacing the handle
Remove the handle
Many repairs require the removal of the handle and other components. To remove the old handle and install a new handle,
you need to remove all components from the handle. Several other procedures in this section reference this procedure.
1. Set the power switch to OFF (O), disconnect the power cord from the power source, and disconnect the gas supply.
2. Remove the consumables from the torch.
3. Place the torch on a flat surface with the left side of the handle facing up.
 The left side of the handle is the side with the screws.
4. Remove the screws from the torch handle. Set the screws aside.
5. Being careful to keep the trigger spring from launching out of the handle, lift the left side of the handle away from the
torch.
