OPERATION
1. The hose and regulator is a pre-assembled unit. DO NOT take apart. Simply
connect the hose and regulator assembly to the LP gas cylinder and to the cooker.
2. Make sure the valve on the LP cylinder is clean. Connect the hose to the
cylinder valve by turning the hand wheel to the right (Hand tighten).
CAUTION: The control valve controls the “volume”of gas only. Use the valve on
the propane tank to turn the gas supply on or off.
3. Connect the valve to the propane cylinder. Use the regulator valve to increase or decrease the amount
of gas needed. Closing the regulator valve on the hose will shut off the flow of gas to the burner.
NOTE: Using a small brush or spray bottle, splash on a soapy liquid (ex. Dish
washing liquid and water, or 50% non-ammonia soap and 50% water) on the
connections around the regulator and cylinder connection. Any bubbles that
appear indicate a gas leak. If so, turn off the gas and tighten the fittings some
more. DO NOT use the cooker if a gas leak is detected and cannot be stopped.
4. After you are certain there are no leaks, turn tank valve and regulator valve to
“OFF”position. Wait 5 minutes for any gas fumes to go away before lighting.
5. When you are sure there are no leaks, turn cylinder valve and regulator control
valve on hose to the closed position. Reopen cylinder valve fully.
6. Have a standard match, fireplace match or long-nosed propane lighter
lit and ready to place over the burner.
7. Before lighting, Turn air control shutter on the burner to an almost
closed position. After lighting, turn air control shutter to open position to
achieve a better flame.
8. Light the burner from the bottom, keeping hands and face away from
the top of the cooker. Place lighter over the burner, then slowly open regulator valve until
burner ignites. Adjust air shutter on burner for a blue flame. (In direct sunlight, flame
may appear clear.) Adjust the regulator control valve for desired flame height.
9. When lighting for the first time, you will smell paint burning at the top for a few minutes. This is normal.
When finished using the cooker, turn off gas from the cylinder valve first. It will take a few seconds for the
fire to go out and for the propane gas to “bleed”from the hose and regulator assembly. After the fire is
completely out, turn regulator control valve to the “OFF”position.
