FUEL CELL AND METERING VALVE
Fuel Cell
DANGER
EXPLOSION/FIRE HAZARD
Read ALL safety instructions
before using or handling the
fuel cell. Failure to follow ALL
instructions may result in
explosion or fire. This may cause severe personal
injuries or property damage.
Keep the fuel cell away from
heat, sparks and open flame.
Exposure to temperatures above
120°F (49°C) may cause the fuel
cell to burst, releasing flammable
gas.

There is a second container inside the fuel cell.
The inner container holds the fuel. The space
between the inner container and the outer cylinder
is filled with a gas, called the propellant, which is
under pressure.
To eject the fuel, propellant pressure squeezes the
inner fuel container, much as you squeeze a tube
of toothpaste. This squeezing action ensures that
all the fuel is used, and that the GypFast (G2) tool
can operate in any position.
Because of this container-within-a-container design,
you might hear the sound of fluid when shaking
the fuel cell after all the fuel has been used. This
is the propellant, which remains between the
containers even after all the fuel has been expelled.
If you expose the empty fuel cell to extreme
temperatures, the propellant gas will expand
and could cause the container to burst, releasing
flammable gases.
Metering Valve
The metering valve contains a fuel metering
system to inject the correct amount of fuel into
the combustion chamber.
The red metering valve is the only valve that will
operate properly with the GypFast (G2) tool.
NOTE:
1. Do not attempt to reuse the metering valve!
Replace with fresh fuel cell/valve, and dispose
of spent cell/valve properly.
2. When replacing fuel cell also clean or replace air
filter for optimum tool operation.
Attaching Metering Valve to Fuel Cell
To attach the metering valve to a fuel cell:
1. Press downward on the front side of the valve
(stem side) until it seats.
2. Press downward on the rear of the valve unit it
seats.
3.
The valve is now completely seated on the fuel
can and can be inserted into the tool.
