FIXING THE GAS REGULATOR TO THE CYLINDER
1. Confirm the barbecue control knob is in the off position.
2. Hand-tighten the regulator supplied with this barbecue to the
gas cylinder by screwing in an anti-clockwise direction.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! As the regulator is fitted with a
soft nose, it should only be tightened a further 1/4 turn after
resistance is first felt.
NOTE!
The regulator (Fig 1) and Adjustable Valve (Fig 2) are designed to
self align, only tighten the threaded fitting.
IMPORTANT
Refer to the Leak Test section of this manual.
LP GAS REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator provided with this appliance must be
used. Substitution of regulator by any other device or any other
manufacturer is dangerous and could result in serious injury.
The gas pressure regulator is shipped loose and must be installed
prior to operating your grill. See assembly instructions for proper
installation.
IMPORTANT
Only a factory supplied gas regulator should be used. See parts
list for replacement items.
LP FUEL
WARNING!
LP is a flammable gas. Improper handling may result in an
explosion and/or fire and serious accident or injury. Your grill is
designed to operate with LP gas and equipped with the proper
orifice for LP gas.
DO NOT connect this grill with any gas supply other than LP. LP gas
is heavier than air and settles in lower areas. Make certain adequate
ventilation is available when using your grill. The gas cylinder may be
stored outside in a well-ventilated area out of reach of children when
the grill is not in use.
LPG GAS TANK
The grill is designed to be used with a refillable LPG gas tank using
the connecting hose and regulator provided.
Keep any electrical supply cord or fuel supply hose away from any
heated surfaces.
IMPORTANT
• Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to your gas
grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your
gas grill has been set to the correct outlet pressure.
• Use only the regulator and hose assembly supplied
with your gas grill.
• Have your LP gas tank filled by a reputable gas dealer
and visually inspected at each filling.
• Never fill the gas tank beyond 80% full. Have your
gas dealer check the release valve after every filling to
ensure that it remains free of defects.
• This appliance shall only be used with a ULPG gas
cylinder/cartridge not exceeding 9kg and certified.
• Use only a universal LPG disposable gas cylinder
certified to DOT-39 NRC 232/290 M1110, OR refillable
Universal LPG cylinder certified to AS2030.
WARNING!
IT MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO ATTEMPT TO FIT OTHER
TYPES OF GAS CONTAINERS
1lb Regulator (KR 101) and 1lb Gas bottle & (DOT-39 NRC 232/290
M1110) connections shown below.
Take care to ensure that the rubber seal inside the 1lb
regulator is in good condition.
LEAK TESTING
WARNING!
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAK AT ANY
TIME.
LEAK TEST ANNUALLY AND WHENEVER THE GAS
BOTTLE IS REMOVED OR REPLACED.
When to Test:
The BBQ gas bottle, regulator & hose assembly
should be checked for leaks, using the soapy water leak test, every
time you reconnect your regulator to the BBQ gas bottle. You
should also test after any long period of non-use, such as at the
beginning of BBQ season.
What to use:
You will need a soapy water solution to check for any
leaks. Mixing liquid hand soap with water will work fine (do not use
any other household cleaning products).
How to Test:
Put some soapy water in a spray bottle or a dish.
Turn on the gas bottle but do not turn on the BBQ. Next, spray
the entire valve, regulator and hose assembly with the soapy water
including where the hose connects to the BBQ. Alternatively, you
can apply the soapy water with a paint brush, basting brush.
Bubbles will form if there is a gas leak and you may also smell the
gas. If you find a leak, turn off the gas bottle immediately!
Do not turn back on or attempt to use the BBQ if a gas leak has
been detected, contact your local BBQ Dealer for repair.
If there is a leak from your BBQ appliance (smells of gas) and you
can not stop the gas flow, remove the appliance to a well ventilated
location away from any ignition source. Check for leak using soapy
water. Do not try to detect leak using flame. If leak persists ensure
fuel source is disconnected.
OPERATION
WARNING!
Before proceeding, be certain you understand the safety
information contained in this manual
This barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 66%
of the cooking area as a solid plate. Full coverage of plates will
cause excessive build-up of heat and damage the barbecue.
IMPORTANT
The regulator supplied with this BBQ may incorporate an
Excess Flow Control Safety Device. The Excess Flow Control
will activate to prevent gas flow should a regulator malfunction
occur. It is important that the BBQ operator understands that all
gas valves on the BBQ are closed in the OFF position prior to
opening the gas cylinder valve. If the BBQ valves are open prior
to opening the cylinder valve, the Excess Flow Control will be
activated and prevent the BBQ from being lit. To reset, close the
BBQ valves and gas cylinder valve, wait for 1 minute and use
correct lighting procedure as detailed below.
CHECK BEFORE LIGHTING
Check burner air inlet openings (behind inlet guard on right end of
body) for insect nests or blockages. Make sure the slots in burner
tube are open.
IMPORTANT
First time use. It is important that the grill be lit and allowed to
operate at least 30 minutes before any food is place on the grill
grid. Some smoke may appear during the initial operation of
the grill. This is normal. These are the preservatives used during
manufacturing. After initial heating, grill is ready for use. After
burning off the grill, lightly spray the cooking grid, drip pan and
inside of lid, with cooking oil so food does not stick to the grid
and the inside is easier to clean.
1. Make sure the regulator valve assembly is properly secured into
the burner end.
2. Place the grill’s feet in a down position.
3. Always open lid when lighting.
WARNING!
DO NOT USE ADAPTORS with this appliance for
connection to the cylinder.
PRIOR TO LIGHTING OR USING YOUR GRILL FOR THE
FIRST TIME
Oils used during the manufacturing process of Stainless Steel can
cause the Stainless Steel to discolour. Before initial use, first remove
all P.V.C protective film and cardboard wrapping from all surfaces.
Clean the grill with a Stainless Steel cleaner. Never use abrasive
cleaners as these will change the appearance or damage your grill.
When all the above has been completed you may now proceed to
follow the lighting instructions.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Locate lighting access hole on left side panel of the BBQ.
2. Insert match or lighter through access hole next to the burner
tube. Keep flame next to burner while actuating gas control
knob on the adjustable valve
(Fig 2)
or
(Fig 1)
, push gas
burner control knob “IN” and then turn counter-clockwise to
“HIGH” while watching burner flame.
3. If burner does not light in 3-5 seconds, turn burner off. Wait 5
minutes and repeat lighting procedure.
