Step 6 – Gas Leak Test
Only propane gas is intended for use with this burner. Never use natural gas; the •
burner will not operate properly.
Every time your burner is attache• d to a gas cylinder, the Gas Leak Test should be ex-
ecuted.
Anything that can easily ignite, such as matches, lighters, sparks and lit cigarettes •
must be kept away from burner when performing the Gas Leak Test. Never use a
flame to test for gas leaks.
Never perform Gas Leak Test indoors. It must always take place outdoors in a well-•
ventilated area.
All cookware must be removed from the cooker top before you perform the Gas Leak •
Test.
PROCEDURE:
Remove all cookware from the cooker top.•
Rotate the gas cylinder valve counter-clockwise to the off position. Rotate the •
regulator control valve counter-clockwise to the off position.
Combine 3 parts water with 1 part liquid dish soap. Mix well. Apply the mixed •
solution to the gas cylinder valve, the regulator control valve and down the
entire length of the hose to the burner.
Slowly rotate the gas cylinder valve clockwise to the on position and monitor •
the entire area of the gas cylinder valve for soap suds. NEVER LEAVE GAS
CYLINDER VALVE IN THE ON POSITION FOR MORE THAN 12 SECONDS.
If soap suds appear, rotate the gas cylinder valve counter-clockwise to the off
position. To fix the leak, remove and replace the connection for proper fit. If the
soap solution makes the area too slippery for a firm grip, clean the area with
a damp cloth to eliminate the soap. Once corrected, reapply the soap solution
and repeat the test.
When the gas cylinder valve has passed the Gas Leak Test, rotate the reg-•
ulator control valve clockwise to the on position and examine the area of
the regulator control valve, down the entire length of the hose and up to the
burner for soap suds. NEVER LEAVE GAS CYLINDER VALVE IN THE ON
POSITION FOR MORE THAN 12 SECONDS. If soap suds appear, there is
a gas leak in the area. If there is a leak in the area of a connection, it can be
repaired by retightening the fitting. If there is a leak in the hose, the hose must
be replaced before you can continue with operation. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
PATCH THE HOSE. Once the test is completed without any leaks, you can
continue with use of your burner but you must wait a minimum of five minutes
before igniting the burner.
Cylinder is not included with appliance•
Never use a gas cylinder without a protective collar or larger than 20 lbs. •
If soap suds persist throughout any portion of the Gas Leak Test, terminate use im-•
mediately. For assistance with this malfunction, contact your propane dealer or Bruce
