- Connection
- Gas cylinder
- Seals
Connecting The Gas Cylinder
- Check before assembly that the control knob (3) is set to position – (turned clockwise all the way).
- Hold the gas cylinder upright when connecting it to the valve (4).
- Placer the valve on the burner valve and carefully screw the burner on the valve, so that it is flush with the valve seals. Check that the thread has meshed correctly. Only tighten by hand. Do not overtighten, this can damage the container valve.
DISCONNECTING THE GAS CYLINDER
- Check that the burner is extinguished before disconnecting the gas cylinder.
- Unscrew the gas cylinder from the valve clockwise when the burner has cooled.
- Store the burner and gas cylinder protected from naked flames and other sources of heat.
- Check the seals before connecting a new gas cylinder.
- The gas container must be replaced in a well-ventilated area, preferably outdoors. Keep onlookers and pets at a safe distance.
HOW TO USE
-
Only use the product with butane with direct pressure.
-
Check that the control knob-/+ (3) is in the- position.
-
Shake the gas cylinder before use.
-
Turn the control knob (3) anticlockwise 2/3 of a turn.
Gas flows out through the burner nozzle with a hissing sound. Press the lighter button (2) to light the flame in the burner (1). -
Hold the burner in the vertical position when first ignited for 45 seconds to allow the burner to heat up before tilting the burner to another position. Failure to do so may result in a sudden increase in the flame.
-
Adjust the flame by turning the control knob anticlockwise (+) or clockwise(-). The flame should be 13 to 19 mm high to avoid overconsumption of gas or it becoming unstable.
In cold weather the flame becomes smaller. To achieve a bigger flame, let the gas cylinder reach room temperature before use. In cold weather there is a big risk of the flame going out if the burner is turned upside down.
TURNING OFF
- Close the valve after use by turning the control knob clockwise all the way.
- Check that the flame has gone out, that the burner has cooled, and that there are no other flames in the vicinity.
- Unscrew the gas cylinder from the valve clockwise when the burner has cooled.
