ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
The COMPANION model comes nearly ready to operate. You will need to install the 9’ LP
Fuel supply hose and the Regulator.
1. Wrap all fuel line connections with Teflon Tape.
2. Connect the small end of the 9’ LP fuel hose to the brass valve at the back of the burner
using a 5/8” wrench.
3. Connect the Regulator to an approved LP tank (Note: This is a left-hand thread).
4. Connect the large, swivel end of the 9’ LP fuel hose to the LP regulator using a ¾” wrench
(Note: This is a left-hand thread).
5. Check for gas leaks. Refer to Owners Manual.
OPERATION:
After for Checking for Gas Leaks…
1. Close all valves.
2. Open tank valve and set regulator pressure at 10-12 psi.
3. Open the door.
4. Close butterfly choke.
5. STAND CLEAR OF ALL FORGE OPENINGS.
6. Open forge control valve one turn, wait 3 seconds and push igniter button. If forge does
not light after pushing the igniter button 1 or 2 times, immediately CLOSE the forge valve
and allow the gas in the burner to clear before attempting to re-ignite.
7. Repeat procedure until forge has lit.
IMPORTANT: The forge has ignited correctly when blue
flame is observed in the heat chamber and heat temperature
is sufficient for desired use within 3 minutes. In the event of forge
fails to ignite properly, see Troubleshooting section of Owners Manual
8. Open butterfly choke.
9. Increase regulator pressure as desired.
NOTE: Operating forge pressure below 5 psi. will result in below standard
temperatures. Operating forge pressure above 15 psi will result in excessive
fuel consumption and NOT increase forge performance.
