HOW TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
To check for leaks, turn on gas supply with the appliance gas valves in the OFF position (DO NOT
IGNIGHT) Check for leakage by brushing a solution of soapy detergent and water onto the connection
points at the bottle and the appliance. If bubbling is evident (it may take more than 30 seconds to
appear) this indicates a gas leak is present. If disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and tightening the
connection does not rectify the leak you should close the gas cylinder valve and consult the place of
purchase for assistance.

Revision 2 November 2012
PROCEDURES FOR GAS LEAKAGE
The strong and distinctive odour of gas may make you aware of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak:
Immediately turn off the main gas supply.
Turn off all appliances and pilot lights;
Do not allow gas to build up in the area. Open all the windows and doors.
Do not use any naked flame or other ignition source (such as light switches, power points, mobile
phones and pagers);
Do not operate any electrical equipment in the vicinity of a gas leak;
Contact your licensed gas fitter to repair the leak and re-light the appliance.

MAINTENANCE
Do not touch hot surfaces. Do not attempt any cleaning or maintenance within 30 minutes of the appliance
being used. Periodic maintenance should be performed at intervals not exceeding 6 months or when evident
such as with flame abnormality or burner discolouration. Flame abnormality or burner discolouration is
generally a sign of gas supply restriction or blocked burner ports.
The pilot provides a flame to light the main burner. If the pilot is blocked by debris, spider webs, etc., the
pilot flame may be too small resulting in erratic ignition of the main burner. If this occurs, it will be necessary
to clean the pilot with compressed air. It is recommended that an authorised person perform all maintenance.
If the appliance fails to operate normally, contact the place of purchase, or their authorised agent for advice
and service. DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS YOURSELF.
It is also recommended that the hose assembly and regulator inlet fitting seals be checked for damage,
abrasion, cracking or displacement before each use. PVC hose assemblies may harden with age and should
be replaced if this occurs. If a replacement part or assembly is required please contact place of purchase or
authorized service agent for advice.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY AN AUTHORIZED
PERSON.
Disconnect gas supply and ensure appliance is cold before servicing.
Burner removal
The gas control needs to be removed to allow removal of the burner. Remove gas control handle
by unscrewing centrally located 10mm hex screw. Remove gas control cover by unscrewing
centrally located upper and lower 10mm hex screws. Unscrew pilot and thermocouple connections
from gas control. Loosen and remove the gas control by rotating until the burner galvanised supply
pipe is disengaged from the galvanised elbow. Remove the burner galvanised supply pipe.
Remove the burner by unscrewing centrally located 10mm hex screws. Note the pilot and
thermocouple assembly is secured independently via a bracket onto the burner locating frame.
This can also be removed to prevent damage to the assembly. Replace in reverse order ensuring
all connections are gas tight.
Pilot and flame safeguard (thermocouple) removal
The gas control needs to be removed to allow removal of the pilot and thermocouple assembly.
Remove gas control handle by unscrewing centrally located 10mm hex screw. Remove gas control
cover by unscrewing centrally located upper and lower 10mm hex screws. Unscrew pilot and
thermocouple connections from gas control. Assembly is located adjacent to the second duckbill
injector. Remove from bracket or loosen 8mm hex screws and remove pilot and thermocouple.
Replace in reverse order ensuring all connections are gas tight.
Adjustment to pilot
If the pilot flame has reduced in size or if the flame is not enveloping the top of the thermocouple
the pilot aeration may need cleaning. Loosen 8mm hex screws and remove pilot head. The
aeration slide should be fully open and the 3mm diameter aeration hole free of debris. When
assembled the gap between the pilot head and thermocouple is 10mm and between pilot head and
duckbill injector is 20mm.
