HOSE
Areplacement flexible hose connector shall comply with the low pressure requirements of
the Standard for PIGTAILS AND FLEXIBLE HOSE CONNECTORS FOR LP-GAS,
ANSI/UL 569.
It shall be an integral assembly for use with outdoor cooking appliances, including
connectors permanently attached to either end of the hose.
Aqualified gas engineer must be consulted to ensure the correctness of the connections,
and a `LEAK TEST` must be employed before operating the grill.
LEAK TEST
Make a solution of one half liquid soap with one half water.
Turn the grill control knob to the `OFF` position.
Turn the LP cylinder valve counter-clockwise to turn on the gas supply to the grill.
Brush the soap solution on all hoses, tubing, fittings, valves and connections.
Look for any soap bubbles. The bubbles indicate that there is a leak.
If the gas leak is located at a gas connection, tighten the connection. If the leak can not be
stopped, do not use the grill until the part is properly repaired or replaced.
Replace all leaky hoses, tubing and valves.
Turn the LP cylinder valve clockwise to turn off the gas supply to the grill.
Wipe away soapy bubbles at end of test.
BEFORE OPERATING THE GRILL
Make sure everyone who operates the grill reads and understands the information in this
manual.
Conduct the following checks before operating the grill:
Inspect the hose. If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it
must be replaced prior to the outdoor cooking gas appliance being put into operation. The
replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
Check the proper mounting of the LP cylinder. See section under `LP CYLINDER`.
Perform the mandatory leak test, see section under `LEAK TEST`, before the first use of
the grill, after storing the grill for a long time, after transporting the grill and after filling the
LP tank.
Check and clean the burner venturi tubes periodically.
Check to make sure the control knob is at the `OFF` position before turning on the gas
supply at the LP cylinder.
