2. Attach the supplied hose and regulator to the gas inlet.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Connecting & Disconnecting to Gas Source
Familiarise yourself with the general information and safety guidelines located at the front of this manual.
Check

1. Gas cylinder is filled. A sloshing sound will be heard when shaken.
2. The gas valve is in the ‘OFF’ position.

Connecting

1. Ensure cylinder and gas valve is in its full off position.

2. Check for any damage to either the cylinder connection or the hose. NEVER attempt to use damaged equipment.

3. When connecting the hose to the cylinder tighten the nut to a positive stop by hand or spanner.
   NOTE: The supplied LCC27 regulator and hose will only suit the safe LCC27 gas cylinder connection.

4. Open cylinder valve fully. If a leak can be heard at either end of the hose turn cylinder off and tighten joint. Wait 5 minutes before re-testing and use a soapy water solution to check the joint. If bubbles appear the connection will need to be re-tightened.

General Positioning

2. Ensure the gas hose is straight and not knotted.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance will keep them in top operating condition and prolong their life. Your new gas appliance is no exception. By following these cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your appliance will be kept clean and working properly with minimum effort.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the burner tubes during warehousing and transit. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes. Cleaning with a soft brush before use and at least every six months is recommended.
This type of fire is known as ‘FLASH-BACK’ and can cause serious damage to your appliance and create an unsafe operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of ‘FLASH-BACK’ it is the most common cause and frequent inspection and cleaning of the burner tubes is necessary.
Flash-Back
If fire occurs in and around the burner, immediately turn off gas at its source and turn the burner control to ‘OFF’, wait until the appliance has cooled, then clean the burner tubes and burner ports.
Cleaning
After cooking, turn burner gas cylinder valve and burner valve to ‘OFF’. Let the burner cool before attempting to clean and store. After use brush excess dust, dirt and debris from the burner surface. Ensure all the burner ports are clean and open before storing and re-using. Ensure the bottoms of all cooking pots/pans are cleaned of any dirt or discolouration after use.

IMPORTANT
Before connecting and disconnecting appliance to gas source, make sure burner controls are in ‘OFF’ position.
CAUTION: When the appliance is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the cylinder.
Check that the seals between the appliance and the gas cylinder are in place and in good condition before connecting the gas cylinder.
Do not use this appliance if it has damaged or worn seals.

• Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tube should be inspected and cleaned periodically.
• This appliance must only be serviced by an authorised person.

NOTE: ONLY USE ON A NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE ONLY USE ON SOLID GROUND
NOTE: THE SUPPLIED LCC27 REGULATOR AND HOSE WILL ONLY SUIT THE SAFE LCC27 GAS CYLINDER CONNECTION.

bottle
Control knob is closed| Turn knob onto high when lighting
Food is not cooking or is taking too long| Burner has gone out| Check that the gas bottle is not empty and re-ignite burner
Regulator and hose will not fit my cylinder| Your gas cylinder is a POL style gas cylinder connection| Swap your gas cylinder for a gas cylinder the safer LCC27 Safe Lok gas cylinder connection

AFTER USE
Turn the gas cylinder valve off and wait for the flame to go out. Then turn the appliance gas valve off.
AERATION
To ensure the flame is clean and blue, that is NO yellow tip to flame or sooting, adjust the primary air disk.
The primary air disk can be adjusted clockwise/counter clockwise by hand.
The ideal positioning of the aeration disk when measured from the venturi tube is:
RB2SL
– INNER # 1 – 2mm open
– OUTER # 4 – 3mm open
RB3SL
– INNER # 1 – 7mm open
– 1st MIDDLE# 2 – 7mm open
– OUTER # 4 – 3mm open
RB4SL
– ALL BURNER RINGS 3mm open
