INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
- Ensure that all taps are turned off on the gas appliance and on the regulator (turn clockwise towards (-)).
- Attach the hoses to the regulator and to the gas appliance respectively. Push the hoses all the way onto the ribbed part of the hose nozzles. Use the hose clamps and tighten with a spanner or screwdriver.
- Thread the gas cartridge onto the regulator. Hand tight only.
- Open tap fully on the regulator (turn anticlockwise towards (+)).
-
When the regulator is to be used outdoors, it shall be positioned or protected against direct penetration by any trickling water.
-
Check that seals (between the regulator and the gas cartridge) are in place and in good condition before connecting to the gas cartridge.
-
Inspect seal before using the regulator.
-
Check for leaks at all joints using soapy water.
NEVER USE A NAKED FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. -
Do not use the regulator if it has damaged or worn seals.

Do not use a regulator which is leaking, damaged or which does not operate properly.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
-
In normal conditions of use, in order to ensure correct operation of the installation, it is recommended that this device is changed within 10 years of the date of manufacture.
-
The operating temperature range of the device is 0-50°C.
-
WARNING: When the regulator is installed downstream of another regulator, the supply pressure range shall be correct for the regulated pressure range of the upstream regulator, plus any loss shall not exceed P value marked on the device.
-
Excess Flow Valve (EFV):
– The regulator is equipped with an excess flow valve (EFV) safety device. This is the sign to stop the gas flow in the event of a sudden flow change on the outlet side of the regulator.
– When used on a cartridge, the excess flow valve may close if the gas cartridge is moved during use.
– Close the valve (on the supply line, the cartridge, or the regulating device) in the event of operation of the excess flow valve, and only open it after having rectified the cause of the excess flow valve (EFV) operating.
– The tap on the regulator shall always be in the fully open position so as to allow the operation of the excess flow valve. -
This regulating device shall not be positioned lower than the tank or cylinder valve, to avoid gas vapour which may have re-liquefied from draining into the regulator. Pipes and hoses used to connect to the inlet of the regulating device, shall slope continuously back to the tank or cylinder.
-
When using fuel-burning equipment (especially in confined spaces) make sure the ADEQUATE VENTILATION.

It is recommended that all hoses should be examined at frequent intervals and replaced if there is any sign of damage or deterioration.
CHANGING THE GAS CARTRIDGE
-
WARNING: Never change the cartridge close to naked flames.
DO NOT SMOKE WHILE CHANGING THE CARTRIDGE. -
The gas cartridge shall be changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outside, away from any sources of ignition, such as naked flames, pilots, electric fires and away from other people.
-
If there is a leak on your regulator (smell of gas), take it outside immediately into a well-ventilated flame free location where the leak may be detected and stopped. If you wish to check for leaks on your regulator, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame, use soapy water.
- Turn off the unit completely. Be careful the gas cartridge could be hot.
- When changing cartridges make sure that the valve on the empty cartridge is clean and free from debris in the connection area.
- Turn the On/Off dial clockwise to turn the gas supply off. Hold the regulator and unscrew the regulator from the cartridge by turning anticlockwise. If a hiss is heard or you smell gas, reconnect the regulator by turning clockwise and place the appliance and the cartridge outside in a well-ventilated area.
- When the regulator is disconnected ensure the valve on the cartridge is kept free from debris and stored in a cool, dry place until next use. Please deposit empty cartridges in a safe environmentally friendly way.
- Make sure that the rubber washer is in a good condition and not damaged, and that the valve outlet is clean.
- Check the seals before connecting a new gas cartridge to the regulator.
- Ensure the regulator operation valve is turned to the Off position by turning clockwise. Screw the regulator onto the cartridge by turning clockwise. Firmly tighten the regulator onto the valve, but do not overtighten it.
- The outlet connection E of the regulator is suitable for connecting to an 8 mm or 10 mm inside diameter hose.
The hose may be secured onto the regulator and appliance nozzle with hose clips for a more secure fit.
