Connection and replacement of the gas cylinder (LPG version)
The GaLiO Fire Pit Corten is delivered together with an elastic gas linkage which, on one end is connected to the valve
of the device and on the other end to the 37mbar regulator (in the twist-on version) ready to be connected to the gas
cylinder. One needs to control the expiry date of both of the regulator as well as the gas linkage and if necessary (for
instance: broken, cut, scratched linkage) replace the components for new ones according to national standards and
norms.
The GaLiO Fire Pit Corten fireplace can use metal or steel bottles or composite bottles filled with propane-butane gas
or propane gas. This device features a twist-on regulator with current pressure of 37 mbar. It can be replaced into a
regulator with a quick-release with pressure regulator of 37 mbar.
WARNING!!!
NEVER use an unstable gas connection or a regulator for other gas pressure.
Gas cylinders have two types of connectors:
•
Twist-on connection: The most important thing is the black seal. Always check if the seal is present and that it
hasn’t been damaged during the
gas cylinder replacement. Some connections have a knob to fasten them in
place while others require the use of a wrench. Tighten securely (left thread). Using the tool pay attention not
to fasten the connection too tightly as this may damage the seal.
•
Quick-release: For this type of connection no tool is required. On/off regulation of gas connection is made
through a switch on the regulator or on a special connector. In case of using a connector with a thread
regulator of an old type put a special emphasis on checking if the connecting nut has been tightly fastened
with the help of wrench.
