Gas Cylinder Leak Test
For your safety
• Leak test must be repeated each time gas cylinder is exchanged
or refilled.
• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
• Barbecue must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area,
away from ignition sources such as gas fired or electrical
appliances. During leak test, keep barbecue away from open flames
or sparks.
• Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and water
solution.
Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to gas
train components can result.
Brush soapy solution onto areas indicated by arrows
in figure below.
5. Hold regulator and insert nipple into
cylinder valve. Tighten the
coupling nut, holding regulator in a
straight line with gas cylinder
valve so as not to cross-thread the connection.
