How to Refill the Dragon Torch

Proper refilling ensures consistent performance.

1. 
   

   Ensure the torch is cool and the safety lock is engaged.

   
   


2. 
   

   Turn the torch upside down and purge trapped air by pressing the refill valve.

   
   


3. 
   

   Insert the butane nozzle firmly into the valve for 5–7 seconds.

   
   


4. 
   

   Stop when full — do not overfill.

   
   


5. 
   

   Let the torch rest for at least 5 minutes.

   
   


6. 
   

   Disengage the safety lock, point away from your face, and test ignition.

   
   

Purging air before refilling is essential for preventing sputtering or weak flames.

What Kind of Butane Should You Use?

Always use high-quality, ultra-refined butane (5x refined or higher). Lower-grade fuel can clog the jet nozzle over time, causing inconsistent flames or ignition issues.
