pane in the hose was not fully discharged from the hose a er its last use, the
propane gas vapor remaining in the hose may have condensed back into a liquid
which will cause the GrillGun’s Check Valve to stop the fuel flow. (See previous
point about the Check Valve and read the Check Valve instruc ons on page 16.)
Being sure NOT to pull the Handle Trigger, barely turn on the Gas Valve Knob
(rotate counterclockwise, to the le ) to start the flow of propane through the
torch.
Pull and release the Finger Trigger to ignite the fuel flow. The GrillGun should
light and there should now be a small flame coming out of the Fire Bell.
WARN‐
ING: When you light the GrillGun, fire may flash out of the back side of the Fire
Bell. Keep hands, skin and clothing clear of the backside of the Fire Bell when
ligh ng.
If you have the gas flow too high, the flame may not light when you pull the trig-
ger. If this happens, keep turning
down
the gas flow rather than turning it up
and pull and release the trigger again, un l it lights.
Once lit, the intensity of the flame is controlled either with the Gas Valve or the
Handle Trigger. Adjust the Gas Valve to provide a higher flow of fuel, or leave it
set to a low flow of fuel and use the Handle Trigger to give a burst of high veloci-
ty flame.
WARNING:
Pulling the Handle Trigger bypasses the Gas Valve, causing
fuel to flow through the GrillGun even if the Gas Valve is turned down or off.
To be able to pull the Handle Trigger, depress the Handle Trigger Lock with your
“pinky” finger to unlock the Handle Trigger and pull in with your fingers to get a
strong and sudden burst of fuel.
Note:
The Gas Valve turned all the way up pro-
vides the same fuel flow as the Handle Trigger fully pulled - 2 ways to control the
same flame.
To turn off the GrillGun, turn the Gas Valve Knob fully clockwise (to the right) to
shut off the gas flow, and release the Handle Trigger.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the 8' adapter hose, you need to burn all the fuel in
the hose before turning off the GrillGun. To do this, turn off the valve at the tank
and allow the GrillGun to con nue opera ng un l the fuel in the hose is fully
exhausted and burned.
Cool the ex nguished GrillGun by either standing it in its Bo le Stand, hanging it
up by its Hook Ring, or laying it down on a non-flammable surface to cool down.
Be vigilant while it cools, so no one touches it. Then separate it from the fuel
source, replace the vinyl protec ve cap onto the gas connector and secure it in a
protected place.
Bo le usage p:
For extended burning with the portable 1-lb bo les, you should
have several bo les on hand to swap out as they freeze up and lose pressure.
You should get 4-6 full, two-minute burns out of each bo le, depending upon
the temperature of the bo les at the me. Around 2 minutes into the burn, you
will see a no ceable fall-off in pressure and the bo le will become very cold.
Swap out bo les at that me and let the cold one warm back up to room tem-
perature.
