The procedure involved is very simple:
1. check that all equipment is safe to use and is not broken in any way, if it is do not use this equipment.
2. make sure both regulator knobs are lose
3. open the acetylene control values.
4. turn the acetylene regulator adjustment knob until the desired reading
5.repet steps 3 an 4 but with oxygen.
6. open the acetylene blowpipe pipe (about half turn)
7.with a flint light, point the tip into the catchment area of the lighter.
8.adjust the acetylene blowpipe valve until a flicker of sut is coming from the flame
9. open the oxygen blowpipe valve until there is a neutral flame ( a neutral flame should have a small cone near the tip.
When the correct amount of Oxygen is mixed with the Acetylene a NEUTRAL flame is produced. Less than that amount produces a CARBURIZING flame. Too much Oxygen creates an OXIDIZING flame. Most welding/cutting is done with a NEUTRAL flame but all flame adjustments have their purpose.
Mixing Acetylene and Oxygen in the correct proportions produces an extremely hot flame. Using just enough Oxygen so that the Acetylene is almost completely consumed in the flame is called a Neutral Flame. In most welding and cutting applications you would utilize this flame. Reducing the amount of Oxygen produces a Carburizing Flame. It is yellowish and not as hot as a Neutral Flame, but, is used in certain situations. Welding Aluminum is one. Increasing the Oxygen produces an Oxidizing Flame. It produces a flame that is pointed, colder, and louder than a Neutral Flame. It wastes fuel and isn't as efficient as a Neutral Flame.
You can make the flame hotter by first, lowering the flame from the starting point by slowly closing the gas valve until the flame is at a medium height. Then, you should increase the oxygen intake by slowly opening the oxygen valve until you have a completely non-luminous flame (an all-blue flame), which is hotter than an orange or yellow flame.
The safety flame on a Bunsen burner is used when the burner is not in use to prevent accidental fires. It is a small, non-luminous flame that burns with a blue color and is created by adjusting the air hole on the burner.
Xenon is typically used in commercial lighting applications to produce a blue glow when excited by electricity, rather than a flame color.
The temperature of a neutral flame typically ranges between 1,300 to 1,600 degrees Celsius (2,372 to 2,912 degrees Fahrenheit). This type of flame is achieved by adjusting the fuel-to-air ratio to ensure complete combustion, resulting in a clean and efficient burn.
The collar on a Bunsen burner is used to control the airflow to the flame. By adjusting the collar, you can change the ratio of gas to air, which can affect the size and intensity of the flame produced.

It is used for adjusting the flame
With the lighting of the flame
in the days of Florence Nightingale , the flame of candle was used to light her way as she made her rounds to the sick and injured. the bright flame today has come to symbolize knowledge , enlightenment , experience and hope. It will drive away all negativity that darkens everything. this flame lightens everything with hope and positivism. Lighting a lamp is not just lighting up a flame but instead it is lighting up a ray of hope and love .
Most cutting and welding is done with a neutral flame.
Olympic flame lighting
The motto of Promethean World is 'Lighting the Flame of Learning'.

To adjust gas flow therefore adjusting flame intensity.
