THE FUEL SYSTEM
Gas
BBQ’s are used around the world safely by millions of people when simple safety
precautions are followed.
The gas regulator and hose supplied with your portable BBQ is designed specifically
for use with your Goldair Portable BBQ and should not be substituted with any other
brand or model.
The gas burner is constructed of tubular stainless steel and should not require
maintenance other than inspection for insect nests inside the air intake slots.
The regulator attaches directly to the end of the burner, which extends out of the right
end of the BBQ with a propane cylinder thread. The regulator operates in the following
positions; indicated by the pointer at the top of the regulator, when installed on your
BBQ.
Once the regulator is in as far as it will go, tighten it with a wrench.
LOCK OFF
– This stops the flow of gas to the burner and locks the regulator in the
OFF position. Unless the control dial is moved counter-clockwise from Lock Off, no
other position can be set.
TO TURN ON PUSH DOWN
– You must push “IN” the knob to release the knob from
the
“OFF” position.
HIGH
– This position provides the highest gas flow and hottest cooking temperatures.
MED
– This position provides cooking temperatures between HIGH and LOW.
LOW
– This position provides the lowest cooking temperature.
USE ONLY THE GAS VALVE / REGULATOR AND HOSE SUPPLIED WITH YOUR
BBQ, THE USE OF ANY OTHER REGULATOR MAY RESULT IN A FIRE OR
FLASH BACK.
LPG REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator is shipped loose and must be correctly installed prior to
operating your Portable BBQ. For proper installation instructions, see assembly
instructions later in this booklet.
Care should be taken to store the regulator in a clean, secure location when the BBQ
is not in use. The threaded cylinder connection area should be kept clean and free of
dust, dirt, sand or any foreign matter. Clean both the regulator and LP cylinder
threaded areas prior to connecting the cylinder or gas bottle to the regulator.
PROPANE AND LPG FUELS
WARNING: Propane and LPG are flammable gases. Improper handling may result in
an explosion and/or fire and serious accident or injury. Your BBQ is designed to
operate with propane or LPG gas only and is equipped with the proper orifice for
these fuels.
CAUTION:
Do not connect this BBQ to any gas supply other than propane or LPG.
Propane and LPG gas is heavier than air and settles in lower areas. Ensure adequate
ventilation is available when using your BBQ. The gas cylinder should be stored
outside in a well-ventilated area, out of reach of children when the BBQ is not in use.
NEVER OPERATE YOUR PORTABLE BBQ ON BUTANE GAS.
