OPERATION
Pre-Start Checks
Prior to using the appliance at any time, it is advisable to inspect the appliance using the following checklist.
Appliance, Gas Controls and Burner
Inspect all major components on the appliance:
• Check the burner, glass tube and reflector for any damage or build up of carbon, spider webs or nests etc.
• Check the glass flame tube for damage or cracks, do not use the appliance if cracks in the glass are present.
• Check that the wire guard is secured and undamaged.
• Check the appliance controls - (flame adjustment control and starter button) - the flame adjustment control should rotate
smoothly and the starter button, when pressed, should cause a spark to occur at the burner ignition probe.
• Ensure the ignition probe is clear of dust and debris.
Gas Hose & Regulator - Gas Line Connections
• Inspect the appliance gas hose and regulator for abrasion, cuts or other damage. If there are signs of wear, abrasion or
damage, you must replace the hose and regulator.
• If the gas hose / regulator has been disconnected from the appliance for a period of time - inspect the POL connector to
ensure it is free of any dirt, spider webs or nests etc. If not cleared, these elements can cause a blockage that will prevent
the appliance from functioning.
Gas Cylinder & Cylinder Valve
• Inspect the gas cylinder and cylinder valve for any signs of wear or damage.
• The gas cylinder should be clean and show no signs of rust or dents. If the cylinder is corroded or, has been dropped or,
sustained a dent, it will need to be inspected at an authorised cylinder inspection station. (Or swap over your cylinder for
a freshly filled one at your nearest cylinder exchange retailer).
• If the gas cylinder has been disconnected from the appliance for a period of time - inspect the cylinder valve / outlet to
ensure it is free of any dirt, spider webs or nests etc. If not cleared, these elements can cause a blockage that will prevent
the appliance from functioning.
Gas Leak Test
• Before using the appliance, it is advisable to perform a leak
test on each gas line connection.
• Prior to performing a leak test be sure there are no live
ignition sources present such as a naked flame or pilot
light for another gas appliance.
• Never ever check for gas leaks with a naked flame.
Leak Test Procedure
1. Connect the appliance hose & regulator to the gas
cylinder and make sure the valve on the gas cylinder is
turned off.
2. Check that the gas control on the appliance is turned to
the 'OFF' position.
3. Turn the gas cylinder valve on. Now, brush or spray
a mixture of detergent and water on all connections
including the Hose, Regulator, POL Connection, Cylinder
Valve - If bubbles form on any connection point along the
gas line or, on the gas hose, this is an indication that a
leak is present.
4. If you smell gas or a leak is discovered, turn the gas
cylinder valve off, disconnect the regulator from the gas
cylinder and do not use the appliance until the leak is
repaired. (For example, either the connection must be
re-tightened or the hose must be replaced).
