1. LP (propane) gas is colorless, tasteless, heavier than air, and is flammable and
explosive. Combustion of propane consumes oxygen and produces carbon
monoxide (a poisonous gas). Therefore, never operate an outdoor gas appliance
inside a building or confined area where ventilation may be restricted. Make
sure the LP Cylinder and outdoor gas appliance is placed in an open area.
Do not obstruct flow of combustion and ventiliation air.
2. Follow lighting procedures as stated with your gas appliance.
3. This LP regulator hose assembly is for OUTDOOR use only.
4. Keep the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
5. Clean and inspect LP hose assembly before each use of the appliance.
If there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks, the hose must be replaced
prior to the appliance being put into operation.
Contact Barbour International Inc. to purchase replacement.
6. The valve on the propane cylinder is the "ON/OFF" valve. When finished cooking,
or in case of an emergency, turn the tank valve clockwise to the "OFF" position.
Be sure to close the tank valve after use and before disconnecting the hose.
7. Use Bayou Classic®regulator hose assemblies only in accordance with state and
local ordinances and codes. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Storage
and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58 or CSA B149.1,
Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code; or CGA-B149.2 Installation Code.

Check for Gas Leaks
LEAK TESTING:
To prevent fire or explosion hazard:
•DO NOT smoke or permit ignition sources in area while conducting leak test.
• Perform test OUTDOORS only in a well ventilated area.
• Never perform a leak test with a match or open flame.
• Never perform a leak test while the outdoor gas appliance is in use or
while hot after use.
DANGER
WHEN TO PERFORM A LEAK TEST:
• After assembling your outdoor appliance and before lighting for the
first time, even if purchased fully assembled.
• After replacing any regulator hose assembly.
• Every time a 20-lb LP gas cylinder is refilled, or if any of the appliance
components are replaced.
• Any time your outdoor gas appliance has been moved.
• At least once per year, or if your outdoor gas appliance has not been used
for more than 60 days.
WARNING
After assembly is complete, always check for gas leaks before operating.

Problems with lighting an Outdoor Gas Appliance:
Most LP Hose Regulator assemblies are equipped with a safety device to greatly
reduce gas flow should the hose be cut or severed. Sometimes this safety device
may be activated when lighting the appliance. To prevent this, ALWAYS make sure
all valves are in the closed position (LP cylinder valve, regulator, gas control valves).
Turn LP cylinder valve one full turn to allow gas to flow to regulator.
Then S-L-O-W-L-Y open the regulator or gas control valve to allow gas to flow to
burner while performing the lighting procedure specified in your outdoor appliance
owner’s manual. Does not apply to 5HPR-40
1. Prepare a soapy water mixture using 50% water
and 50% liquid dishwashing soap.
2. Close the LP Cylinder valve, regulator control valve
and all appliance control valves.
Gas Leak Testing
ATTENTION: Always turn LP Cylinder Valve and Regulator
Control Knob/Valve to OFF position after every use!
Spray ALL tank, valve and
hose connections with a soapy liquid
to check for gas leaks. Appearance
of bubbles indicates a leak.
Refer to Owner’s Manual supplied with your outdoor appliance for lighting instructions.
Lighting Instructions
3. Rotate LP Cylinder Valve counter-clockwise one turn.
Gas will flow through and stop at closed appliance
control valve(s).
4. Using a small brush or spray bottle, apply soapy water mixture to all connections
on cylinder valve, regulator and appliance control valve(s). Repeat procedure
for full length of hose. Any expanding bubbles that appear indicate a gas leak
at that connection. If so, turn off the gas and tighten leaking connections.
Repeat soapy water test until no leaks are detected.
Do Not use outdoor gas appliance if gas leak cannot be stopped.
Contact a qualified appliance repair service.
5. After you are certain there are no leaks, turn LP cylinder valve to "OFF" position.
Wait 5 minutes for any gas fumes to evacuate before operating the outdoor
appliance.
