How does Montag defeat the Mechanical Hound? Be as detailed as possible

first he burns the hound with the flamethrower, then after he gets stuck with the needle, he burns it again which overheats the circuits which causes the hound to explode

"He felt it scrabble and seize his leg and stab the needle in for a moment before the fire snapped the Hound up in the air, burst its metal bones at the joints, and blew out its interior in the single flushing of red color like a skyrocket fastened to the street. Montag lay watching the dead-alive thing fiddle the air and die."

HAVE A BLESSED DAY!!!
