**Safety Notes for use of blow torch: WARNING! It is the user’s
responsibility to ensure the safe use of the blow torch. The following safety
instructions are a guide only, and not an exhaustive list of potential hazards.
• Check torch is in good condition and not damaged.
• Ensure nothing is standing or passing in front of the torch as the torch is
ignited, and ensure you use a controlled source of ignition.
• The use of safety gloves is recommended.
• Always keep an appropriate fire extinguisher at hand.
• DO NOT point torch at yourself or others. DO NOT leave torch lying unattended.
• DO NOT use torch near flammable material, liquids, solids, or gases, and
materials that may be accidentally ignited i.e. wood, cloth, plastic etc.
• DO NOT touch the torch or the item on which it is used until all parts have
completely cooled.
• DO NOT allow untrained persons to ignite or use the torch.
*** Safety Notes for dry ice usage: WARNING! It is the user’s
responsibility to ensure the safe use of dry ice. The following safety
instructions are a guide only, and not an exhaustive list of potential hazards.
• CHILDREN: Never use dry ice without adult supervision.
• Dry ice can cause serious injury if not used carefully. Never store dry ice in
an airtight container. As the dry ice melts from a solid directly into a gas,
the gas will build up in the container until it bursts showering sharp pieces of
container on those nearby. Make sure your container is ventilated. The best
place to store dry ice is in a styrofoam chest with a loose fitting lid.
• Do not touch dry ice with your skin! Use tongs, insulated (thick) gloves or an
oven mitt. Since the temperature of dry ice is so cold, it can cause severe
frostbite. If you suspect you have frostbite seek medical help immediately.
• Never eat or swallow dry ice! Again, the temperature of dry ice is very, very
cold. If you swallow dry ice, seek medical help immediately.
• Always wear safety goggles when using dry ice.
• Do not place dry ice directly on countertops. The cold temperature could cause
the surface to crack.
• Leave the area immediately if you start to pant or have difficulty catching
your breath. This is a sign that you have breathed in too much carbon dioxide
gas.
• Do not store dry ice in your freezer. It will cause your freezer to become too
cold and your freezer may shut off.
