1, CONNECTING THE CYLINDER
1) Place the gas filled cylinder into the back of the heater,
2) and fix the back cover to the back side of the heater by tightening the screws.
3) Clip on the gas regulator to the gas cylinder
4) Turn the regulator on.
5) Where the regulator is not supplied please contact your gas dealer to advise of
correct type for the gas cylinder being used.
6) IMPORTANT TEST FOR LEAKS:
This must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, free from naked flames and any other
sources of ignition. With the regulator connected to the cylinder turn on the regulator
control. Brush all hose connections, pipe connections to the valve and gas cylinder valve
with a 50:50 solution of detergent and water. A stream of bubbles forming indicates a
leak. If a leak is found turn off at the regulator and disconnect the regulator from the
bottle and remove the gas cylinder outdoors or to a well ventilated area. Contact your
gas supplier for assistance. DO NOT USE THE HEATER.
6. After leak testing is satisfactorily carried out close the back door of the heater. It may
be necessary to move the heater slightly to allow the regulator and hose to fit in the back
without kinking the hose
2, HOW TO CHANGE A CYLINDER
(a) Turn off at the regulator and allow the heater to cool fully before removing and
replacing the cylinder. Do not attempt to replace the cylinder whilst the heater is still
running.
(b) Cylinders must be replaced in a flame free environment.
(c) Do not smoke while changing the cylinder.
(d) When you need to replace your empty cylinder, turn the gas off at the valve or
regulator of the cylinder and take the empty cylinder out of the heater.
(e) Remove the regulator from the empty cylinder.
(f) Following the steps described under “connecting the cylinder”, connect a new
cylinder.
