need to turn the propane tank on any further.
2. WAIT 10 seconds for the propane to fill the hose.
3. Slowly crack your adjusting needle valve about 1/4 of a turn just until you
hear gas passing through the torch kit.
4. Proceed to light the torch with the spark lighter.

out, turn off needle valve, wait, :30 and try again slower.
