Hose & Regulator Safety
The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the
barbecue are suitable for LPG only.
A gas regulator adjusted to have an outlet pressure of
2.75kPA is supplied for connection to the LPG cylinder.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied
with the barbecue must be used. Replacement pressure
regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified by
the barbecue manufacturer.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to the
gas cylinder, take care to avoid unnecessary twisting or
kinking of the flexible hose.
After the assembly has been secured, turn on the gas and
check for leaks by brushing a soap and water solution over
all connections.
If you are unable to correct the leak by tightening the
connections, turn off the gas and contact the supplier
immediately.
Always ensure the barbecue is kept away from flammable
materials and the gas cylinder clear of any heat source.
When changing over from an empty gas cylinder to a full
one make sure this procedure is carried out in a flame free
atmosphere.
