Leak Test
The gas leak testing procedure should be conducted every time a gas cylinder is refilled and
reconnected to the appliance, or after any new gas connection is made. Never use a naked flame to
check for gas leaks.
In a small container, mix up a solution of water and detergent or soap. Mix the solution well.
Make sure that the gas supply valve on the gas cylinder or the shut off valve on
the supply line is turned on.
Make sure that the gas control valves on the appliance are all turned off.
Using a brush or spray bottle apply the solution to the gas line and each joint in
the gas line, including the hose and regulator.
Bubbling of the solution will indicate that there is a leak present.
Re-tighten or re-seal any joints that are leaking.
If a leak persists contact your distributor or the manufacturer for assistance.
Connection to Barbecue & Gas Supply
Disconnecting The Gas Supply
If you need to disconnect the gas supply for any reason, always ensure that all gas controls on the appliance

If installed in an enclosure, remove the gas cylinder from the enclosure before disconnecting the gas line
from the appliance. Tighten all connections before placing the gas cylinder back in its enclosure.
Regulators which fit inside
the mouth of the cylinder

Regulators which screw onto
the outsdie thread of the
cylinder valve are tightened
by turning clockwise.
