Side Burner Manual

Hose and Regulator
The Type 1 connection system has the following features:
- The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has
been made.
NOTE: The cylinder control valve must be turned off before
any connection is made or removed.
- The system has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas in the event of a fire.
- The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will limit the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet
per hour.
- NEVER use side burner without leak testing this connection.
LP (Propane) Gas Supply Connection
1. The tank valve should be in the “OFF” position. If not, turn the knob
clockwise until it stops.
2. Make sure all burner valves are in the “OFF” position.
3. Always connect the gas supply regulator as follows:
Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn the coupling nut
clockwise until the coupler tightens up (see picture). Do not over
tighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on and turn the burner
control valves on the unit to the “HIGH” position for about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to
purge before attempting to light the burners.
PRE-OPERATION LEAK TESTING
DANGER
1. Do not insert any tool into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and
cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
2. If a leak is detected at any time or you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately close pipeline valve and
call LP gas supplier or you fire department!
3. Check all gas supply fittings before each use and each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to
the regulator. Have a qualified service technician leak test the side burner any time a part of the side
burner system is replaced.
WARNING
Never attempt to attach this side burner to the self-contained LP gas system. Do not use side burner
until leak testing.
WARNING:
Always take a leak test before lighting the side burner to prevent a possible fire or
explosion. Never store a spare propane cylinder in the vicinity of this side burner, or in the vicinity of
any
other potential heat source.
