Do not use an open flame to check for
gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks
or open flames in the area while you
check for leaks. Sparks or open flames
will result in a fire or explosion, which
can cause serious bodily injury or
death and damage to property.
WARNING: You should check for gas
leaks every time you disconnect and
reconnect a gas fitting.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
You will need: A spray bottle or brush or rag and a soap
and water solution. (You can make your own soap and
water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap with 80%
water; or, you can purchase leak check solution in the
plumbing section of any hardware store.)
A) Check that burner control knob is in the off ( )
position (1). Burner control knob is shipped in
the off ( ) position, but you should check to be
sure that it is turned off. Check by pushing burner
control knob in and turning it clockwise. If it does
not turn, it is off. If it does turn, continue turning it
clockwise until it stops; then it is off.
B) Turn gas supply on at source (2).
WARNING: Do not ignite burner
when leak checking.
C) To check for leaks, wet fittings with the soap and
water solution, using a spray bottle, brush or rag. If
bubbles form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.
Apply the soap and water solution to the following
connections:
a) Regulator-to-tank adapter hose connection (3).
b) Tank adapter hose connection (4).
c)
Tank adapter hose-to-tank connection (5).
d) Tank adapter hose connection (6).
WARNING: If there is a leak at
