1. Turn off the gas supply: Close the gas cylinder valve by turning it clockwise until it is fully closed. This will stop the flow of gas to the welding torch.
2. Turn off the oxygen supply: Close the oxygen cylinder valve by turning it clockwise until it is fully closed. This will stop the flow of oxygen to the welding torch.
3. Allow the torch to cool down: Let the welding torch cool down for a few minutes before proceeding to extinguish the flame. This will help prevent any accidental flare-ups.
4. Extinguish the flame: Once the torch has cooled down, use the torch extinguisher or a fire blanket to safely extinguish the flame. Do not use water to extinguish the flame as this can cause a steam explosion.
5. Check for any remaining gas: After extinguishing the flame, check for any remaining gas leaks by using a gas leak detector or soapy water solution. If you detect any leaks, do not attempt to relight the torch until the issue has been resolved.
6. Store the equipment safely: Once the flame has been extinguished and the gas supply has been turned off, safely store the welding equipment in a well-ventilated area away from any flammable materials.
By following these steps, you can safely extinguish the flame and shut down the equipment for gas welding.

Procedure for Safely Extinguishing the Flame and Shutting Down the Equipment for Gas Welding:
1. Extinguish the Flame:
- Close the acetylene valve.
- Wait until the flame disappears.
- Close the oxygen valve.
2. Shut Down the Acetylene Regulator:
- Completely open the acetylene valve on the regulator.
- Loosen the acetylene regulator adjusting screw counterclockwise.
- Close the acetylene cylinder valve.
3. Shut Down the Oxygen Regulator:
- Completely open the oxygen valve on the regulator.
- Loosen the oxygen regulator adjusting screw counterclockwise.
- Close the oxygen cylinder valve.
4. Release Any Remaining Pressure:
- Slightly open both the acetylene and oxygen torch valves to release any remaining gas pressure.
5. Close Torch Valves:
- Close both the acetylene and oxygen torch valves.
6. Detach Torch Hoses from Regulators:
- Grip the hose connection firmly and carefully disconnect the acetylene hose from the acetylene regulator.
- Repeat for the oxygen hose and oxygen regulator.
7. Hang Torch Properly:
- Hang the torch on a designated hook or in a vertical position.
8. Inspect Hoses and Connections:
- Visually inspect the hoses and connections for any cracks, leaks, or damage.
- Check for proper fittings and secure connections.
9. Secure Tanks:
- Place the tanks upright and secure them with a chain or strap.
- Ensure that the valves are fully closed.
10. Ventilate Area:
- Open windows or doors to ventilate the area where the welding was performed.
- Allow time for any remaining fumes or gases to dissipate.
