    Answer This Question

    It doesn't matter how little or how much I turn it, it always has the same amount of gas being used. Why not make it a two-position switch with good feedback for off/on instead?

    Answer This Question

    The black knob adjusts the flame intensity. Turning it clockwise increases the flame, and turning it counter-clockwise decreases it.

    What’s the little orange thumb knob on the handle supposed to do ? Mine does nothing

    Answer This Question

    If you loosen it up, you can slide the handle higher or lower to your preference for height. Once the knob is loose, you may have to nudge the handle to get it to move.

      Adjusts the orange handle up/ down Agree does little

        That knob is a shut off of the gas. It does work on mine and is should work on yours or should I say all of them. If it is not working you have a faulty unit and I would suggest returning it as an unsafe unit. Remember too you should always remove the tank from the torch when you are not using the unit.

        It is there so you can adjust the height of the orange handle on the steel tubing. If you are tall, you will want it full height.

          We use it as a handle to better guide the flame.

                I use mine to burn the weeds that grow through the cracks in my sidewalk, and it works very well for that. Sorry, I am not familiar with the thorns of the prickly pear cactus.

                  It will make really cold, hard water, liquid. Thats about it. Get the asphalt torch for what you want to do.

                    Sorry, I have not tried it on thorns but it did burn the root popping up as sprouts in my yard.

                      Yes it would but you would have to be very careful of damaging the plant because of the closeness to the plant and the time to burn them off. But it could be done. It would be very time consuming.

                        I bought this torch to kill weeds and it burned, turned them black and killed the weeds. I would imagine this torch would melt any part of the cactus it touched.

                          Easy to use. Light and well balanced. Used it for some driveway patching. Worked great.

                          The delivery was delayed for so long that all of the ice has melted. I have no idea how it works. Glad to not have ice now. Will test it next winter.

                          Just used it out front on my gravel driveway to burn the weeds. Too early to really tell how well it worked as the weeds are just now starting to dry up. It did a good job of actually burning the dead weeds up quickly. Fire season is here, so have to be extra careful and keep a garden hose available in case I get too many embers blowing around.
