CHANGING THE GAS CYLINDER
Take the heater outside and remove the rear panel.
Take out the gas cylinder and place it on the ground next to the heater. Unscrew the
regulator

ATTEMPTING TO DISCONNECT THE REGULATOR.
Before connecting the refilled cylinder, check that the nose seal on the regulator is not
damaged and is still in good condition. If in doubt, take the regulator to an authorised dealer
to be checked.
Fit the new gas cylinder into the rear of the heater body. Ensure that the cylinder is placed in
such a manner that the hose is not trapped or block in any way.
Fit the rear heater guard back on to the body securing the clips on both sides.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
There is very little maintenance required on this appliance. Important points to remember are:
Always check that the regulator seal is undamaged when changing the gas cylinder.
Always check that the hose is in good condition before using, and that it is securely clamped
on to the appliance and the regulator.
It is recommended that the hose be replaced every two years whether it has been used or
not. When replacing the hose, make sure that it is with a hose that complies with SABS 1156-
2 or BS 3212. These are available mainly from Hardware Stores and from the manufacturer
and are orange in colour.
Remember when replacing the hose to replace the hose clamps at
the same time.
With the exception of the hose and the regulator, there are no user fitted parts available for
this heater. Should the heater not be functioning properly, an authorised service agent must
check it, and if replacement parts are required, they will ensure that the correct parts are
supplied and fitted correctly.
It is recommended to have your heater checked at your local hardware store at the beginning
of every season.
