LPG BurnerLPG Burner
The LPG burner system is manually ignited. A valve on
top of the LPG tank controls the amount of propane
gas owing to the system. An ignitor wand provides
ame to ignite the burner, where burner valves control
the amount of propane gas owing through the burner
system to heat the asphalt material. (Figure 4-9)
NEVER use a match or other source of
ame to light the ignitor for the burner as an
explosion could occur. ONLY use a torch striker to
light ignitor wand.
