WARNING
WARNING
To ensure gas tight connections, complete the gas leak test procedure before and after gas hose connection and after every reconnection of
the gas cylinder. Failure to do so may result in a fire or explosion.
Leak test procedure
• Ensure all gas valves are in the ‘OFF’ position.
• In a small container, mix a solution of water and
detergent or soap.
• After connection of the hose, turn on the gas supply at
the gas bottle.
• Using a brush apply the solution to all gas connection
points and look for bubbles forming.
• Bubbling will indicate a leak.
• Turn off the gas supply and re-tighten the joint.
Repeat the leak test.
• If the leak persists, turn off the gas at the bottle and
contact a licensed gas fitter to correct.
