How to Check for Leaks
Fig. 30
No Smoking
No Flame
If you detect a leak:
1. Turn off the fuel supply. Turn on the control
knobs to release pressure in the hose, then
turn the control knobs back to off.
2. Wash off soapy solutions with cold water
and towel dry.
3. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint, or
by replacing the faulty part with a
replacement part recommended by
Coleman. DO NOT attempt to repair the
cylinder valve if it should become
damaged; the cylinder MUST be replaced.
4. If you are unable to stop a leak, shut off
the gas supply at the cylinder valve.
Remove the cylinder from the stove. Call a
gas appliance serviceman or L.P. gas
dealer. DO NOT use stove until the leak is
corrected.
When to test for leaks:
1. Perform a leak test each time the gas
supply cylinder is connected to the hose
end. Leak test anytime a part of the gas
system is replaced.
2. Perform a leak test at least once each year
whether the L.P. gas supply cylinder has
been disconnected or not.
3. Have a dealer check the cylinder for
deterioration after 12 years, according to
DOT regulations. Immediately replace the
cylinder if any deterioration is found.
Fixing A Fuel Leak
CAUTION
Inspect the gas supply hose before each
use. If there are cuts, damage, excessive
abrasion or wear, replace the hose prior to
operating the appliance. During assembly
of the stove and when attaching or
replacing the L. P. gas cylinder, insure that
the gas supply hose is free of kinks and/or
damage and is at least three inches away
from hot surfaces such as the stove
housing. Use only hose replacements
specified in the parts list.
