8.  DO NOT use any pressure regulator or hose assembly  
 

other than those supplied with the appliance.

 

Replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly   

 

must be those specified. Replacement parts may be   

 

obtained from the distributor.

9.  Installation and use of this appliance must conform with
 

New Zealand Standard 5601 “Gas Installations”.

10. This appliance is designed to operate with a standard
 

9Kg LPG cylinder with Approved Cylinder Connection.

11. The valve outlet must be maintained in good condition.
 

When the cylinder is not in use, be sure to cover it with

 

a dust cap. A leak test should be performed with soapy

 

water whenever connecting a new cylinder. NEVER use

 

a flame to test for leaks.

12. The LPG cylinder must be turned off whenever the
 

appliance is not in use. When the appliance is to be   

 

stored indoors, the LPG cylinder and the appliance must

 

be disconnected and the cylinder stored in accordance

 

with LPG Dangerous Goods Regulations. 

13. Store the appliance upright in an area sheltered away
 

from weather conditions. The use of a cover is  

 

 recommended.

SAFETY FEATURES

The appliance has been designed with several safety 
features which include a tip over switch and a flame 
safeguard system which means if the pilot goes out it will 
automatically turn off. 

Regulator Safety Feature

All QCC regulators (the part that attaches to the gas 
cylinder to regulate the flow of gas) have a safety feature 
included that restricts gas flow in the event of a gas leak. 
You can inadvertently activate this safety feature without 
having a gas leak. This typically occurs when you turn on 
the gas using the appliance control knob before you turn on 
the gas cylinder valve. If the gas regulator safety feature 
activates, the appliance will operate with reduced output as 
gas flow is restricted. 
These steps should be taken first to reset the gas regulator
safety device:

1.  Turn gas cylinder valve off.
2.  Turn appliance off.
3.  Disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder.
4.  Wait 30 seconds.
5.  Reconnect the regulator to the gas cylinder.
6.  Leak test the connection using a soapy water solution.
 

Ensure no bubbles appear before proceeding.

7.  Slowly open the gas cylinder valve all the way. Do not
 

put excessive force on the valve at the full open  

 

 

position, to avoid damaging the valve.

8.  Light the appliance as per the instructions provided. 

Any modification to the appliance not described in the
installation instructions may compromise the safety of this
appliance. Special concern is as follows:

 

(1) DO NOT bypass thermocouple safety burner;

 

(2) DO NOT operate appliance without the guards or  

 

     reflector;

 

(3) DO NOT shorten post length;

Clothing or other flammable materials should not be hung
from the appliance, or placed on or near the appliance.
The area above the post may be extremely hot.
Direct contact with these metal surfaces should be avoided
in order to prevent burns or clothing ignition. 

Q.C.C. Cylinder Connection Device 

Screw the coupling nut of regulator into the cylinder valve outlet.
