WARNING - Replacing Original Machine Torch with RPT Mechanized Torch
Thermal Dynamics RPT mechanized torches have two control wires that are used for Parts - In - Place (PIP) only.
Do not connect these PIP connections directly into any start input because when the torch parts are in place, the
start signal will always be energized. If the torch parts are not in place but are subsequently installed with the start
signal energized, the shield cup will complete the start circuit and the unit will immediately transfer a pilot arc.
