CHECKING FOR LEAKS:
CAUTION:
Strong odors, colds, sinus congestion, etc. may prevent the detection of propane by smell.
Use caution and common sense when testing for leaks.
Note:
The leak test must be performed in an area that has adequate lighting in order to see if bubbles are
developing and not in a windy or noisy area so larger leaks can be detected by smell or sound.
1. Create a mixture of 50% water and 50% liquid dishwashing soap.
2. Open the lid.
3. Ensure all control knobs are set to the “OFF” position.
4. Ensure gas hose is tightly connected to gas source.
5. Turn on the fuel supply at the source.
6. Apply the soap water mixture to the following:
Hose connection to gas manifold.
Sear burner connection to hose.
Sear burner valve stem cap.
The full length of gas supply hoses.
Quick
disconnect
coupler.
7. Check each place listed (A– E) for growing bubbles which
indicates a leak. Large leaks may not be detected by
bubbles but should produce a rushing sound or gas smell.
8. Turn off gas supply at source.
9. Turn on control knobs to release gas pressure in hose.
10. Turn control knobs to “OFF” position.
11. Tighten any leaking connections.
12. Repeat soapy water test until no leaks are detected.
13. Turn off gas supply at source until you are ready to use your grill.
14. Wash off soapy residue with cold water and towel dry.
15. Wait 5 minutes to allow all gas to evacuate the area before lighting grill.
CAUTION
:
DO NOT
use the grill if leaks cannot be stopped.
Note:
The leak test must be performed in an area that has adequate lighting in order to see if bubbles
are developing.
