LEAK TESTING FOR VALVES, HOSE AND REGULATOR
WARNING
NOTE: When doing a leak test on this appliance, make sure to tighten and test all loose connections. A slight
leak in the system can result in a low flame or a hazardous condition resulting in a fire or explosion.
1. NEVER smoke during leak testing.
2. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame.
3. Mix a solution of equal parts mild detergent or liquid soap and water.
4. Turn all burner control knobs to “OFF”.
5. Ensure that the connections from the regulator to the
burner and tank are tight and secure (see picture).
6. Completely open the LP tank valve by turning the cylinder
valve knob counter clockwise (right to the left). If you hear
a rushing sound, turn off the gas supply immediately. There
is a major leak at the connection.
7. If there is no rushing sound, brush soapy solution onto
areas where bubbles are shown in the LP tank
(see picture).
8. If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close the LP
tank valve immediately and retighten connections.
9. Always close the LP tank valve after performing a leak test
by turning the tank valve knob clockwise.
LP GAS SUPPLY TANK DISCONNECTION
To disconnect the LP tank from the side burner:
1. Turn the burner valves “OFF”.
2. Turn the tank valve “OFF”. (Turn shut off valve clockwise to stop.)
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the tank valve by turning the quick coupling nut counterclockwise.
