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.
