Carbide generator instructions

This is courtesy of a good friend. He has a NOS generator he received from the original owner 50 years ago. This was inside it.

It was offered and I didn’t want to take it last night, so had wifey take a quick pic. I will get it scanned and then forward to you and anyone else that wants it. Might be later this week. T

Nice of you to offer the scan Tim. Looks like it’s for a Victor based on the “hook” mention in the drip regulation. Still very usable no matter what type carbide generator. Best John

Hi Tim,
Maybe you could just post the scan on here? Might save you some time as I would imagine there are more than a few of us that would appreciate a copy of that!
Thank you.

Glad to do it. I’ll have to get some help from granddaughter to post here. Ill have to get granddaughter to help as that’s beyond my two fingered iPad skills. I’ll probably get a small stack of color copies, too.
