Braai Installation
Check your local building codes for the proper
method of installation. In the absence of local codes,
this unit should be installed in accordance with the
South African National Standard 1539, Storage and
Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases,
Correct LP Gas Cylinder Use LP gas braai models
are designed for use with a standard 9kg LP Gas
cylinder, not included with braai.
Never
connect your
gas braai to an LP gas cylinder that exceeds this
capacity.
WARNING
Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the
“LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this manual
.
CAUTION:
Spiders and small insects occasionally
spin webs or make nests in the braai
burner tubes during transit and
warehousing. These webs can lead
to gas flow obstruction, which could
result in a fire in and around burner
tubes. This type of fire is known as
“BURN-BACK” and can cause serious
damage to your braai and create an unsafe
operating condition for the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only
cause of “BURN-BACK”, it is the most common cause.
In the event of “BURN-BACK”, where the flame burns
back to the jet, immediately turn off the gas supply at
the burner control valve.
After ensuring that the flame is extinguished, re-light
the appliance as described below. Should the
appliance again “BURN-BACK”, close the valves and
examine the mixing tube or burner for any obstructions.
If there are no obstructions and the burn back still
occurs, call a technician to examine the appliance and
make any necessary repairs.
Do not make any adjustments or modifications to this
braai, a qualified LP gas technician should do any
adjustments.
To reduce the chance of “BURN-BACK”, you must
clean the burner tubes before assembling your braai,
and at least once a month for maintenance. Also
perform this burner tube cleaning procedure if your
braai has not been used for an extended period of time.
A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the braai.
CAUTION: Beware of Burn-Back
If an external electrical source is utilized for lights
or rotisserie motors
: The outdoor cooking gas
appliance, when installed, must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local building
regulations.
WARNING
Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply
hose away from any heated surfaces.
NOTE
: The normal flow of gas through the regulator
and hose assembly can create a humming noise. A
low volume of noise is perfectly normal and will not
interfere with operation of the braai. If humming noise
is loud and excessive you may need to purge air from
the gas line or reset the regulator excess gas flow
device. This purging procedure should be done every
time a new LP gas cylinder is connected to your braai.
Visually check the burner flames prior to each use. The
flames should look like this picture. If they do not, refer
to the burner maintenance part of this manual.

The braai must be used with a 2,8 kPa regulator that
complies with Maximum LP gas cylinder size (30cm
in diameter by 52cm tall).
