Connecting & Disconnecting to Gas Source
Familiarise yourself with the general information and safety
guidelines located at the front of this manual.
Check
1. Gas cylinder is filled. A sloshing sound will be
heard when shaken.
2. The gas valve is in the ‘OFF’ position.
Connecting
1. Ensure cylinder and gas valve is in its full off position.
2. Check for any damage to either the cylinder connection
or the hose. NEVER attempt to use damaged
equipment.
3. When connecting the hose to the cylinder tighten
the nut to a positive stop by hand or spanner.
4. Open cylinder valve fully. If a leak can be heard at
either end of the hose turn cylinder off and tighten
joint. Wait 5 minutes before re-testing and use a soapy
water solution to check the joint. If bubbles appear the
connection will need to be re-tightened.
General Positioning
1. Never place or position the ring burner on combustible
material. Only use on a non-combustible surface.
2. Ensure the gas hose is straight and not knotted.

Before connecting and disconnecting appliance to
gas source, make sure burner controls are in ‘OFF’
position.
CAUTION:
When the appliance is not in use, the gas
must be turned off at the cylinder.
Check that the seals between the appliance and
the gas cylinder are in place and in good condition
before connecting the gas cylinder.
Do not use this appliance if it has damaged or
worn seals.
• Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tube should
be inspected and cleaned periodically.
•
This appliance must only be serviced by an
authorised person.
NOTE: ONLY USE ON A NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE
As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance will
keep them in top operating condition and prolong their
life. Your new gas appliance is no exception. By following
these cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your
appliance will be kept clean and working properly with
minimum effort.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or
make nests in the burner tubes during warehousing and
transit. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction
which could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes.
Cleaning with a soft brush before use and at least every
six months is recommended.
This type of fire is known as ‘FLASH-BACK’ and can cause
serious damage to your appliance and create an unsafe
operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed
burner tube is not the only cause of ‘FLASH-BACK’ it is
the most common cause and frequent inspection and
cleaning of the burner tubes is necessary.
Flash-Back
If fire occurs in and around the burner, immediately turn off
gas at its source and turn the burner control to ‘OFF’, wait
until the appliance has cooled, then clean the burner tubes
and burner ports.
Cleaning
After cooking, turn burner gas cylinder valve and burner
valve to ‘OFF’. Let the burner cool before attempting to
clean and store. After use brush excess dust, dirt and
debris from the burner surface. Ensure all the burner ports
are clean and open before storing and re-using. Ensure the
bottoms of all cooking pots / pans are cleaned of any dirt
or discolouration after use.
