GAS LEAK TESTING
WARNING
Gas leak testing must be performed outdoors in a well ventilated area every time cylinder is connected to stove.
Always keep unit away from open flames, sparks or lit cigarettes.
•
•

•
Never use a flame to check for gas leaks.
The control knobs are used when lighting the burners and to adjust the flame.
Never use a unit that has a gas leak. Contact The Brinkmann Corporation’s Customer Service Department for
replacement parts or repairs at 1-800-527-0717.

Regulator Assembly
Step 2
Prepare a soapy water solution (one part dishwashing
liquid to three parts water) to test for gas leaks in the
connections. Apply a generous amount of the soapy
mixture to the regulator assembly at the regulator and
stove fitting (located on the right side of stove).
Step 3
With the burner control knobs in the "OFF" position,
check for bubbles where propane canister attaches to
regulator assembly and at stove fitting. If soapy
mixture starts bubbling, gas is leaking through the
connections. Disconnect the propane canister.
Retighten the connection that is leaking gas. Repeat
procedure with soapy mixture until gas no longer
leaks. NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS
LEAKS.
Watch for Bubbles

Step 4
Once all gas leaks have been sealed, WAIT AT LEAST 5
MINUTES FOR GAS FUMES TO DISSIPATE BEFORE

AFTER-USE SAFETY
• Always allow the stove to cool completely before handling.
• Always disconnect the propane cylinder from stove when not in use - a safety cap should be placed on
the propane cylinder.

ventilated, shaded area away from any heat source or open flame.
• Fold wind guards and lid back into their closed position. Unfold legs to lock lid down.
PROPER CARE & MAINTENANCE
• Wash cooking grill with hot, soapy water, rinse well and dry before storing. Wipe remaining exposed parts
of stove with damp cloth. Do not use abrasive materials.
• To protect your stove, the unit must be kept clean and covered at all times when not in use.
• If rust appears on the exterior surface of your stove, clean and buff the affected area with steel wool or fine
grit emery cloth. Touch-up with a good quality high-temperature resistant paint.
• Only use replacement/accessory parts manufactured by The Brinkmann Corporation. Repairs should be
performed by The Brinkmann Corporation. For parts or repairs, contact The Brinkmann Corporation’s
Customer Service Department at 1-800-527-0717.
• Cover and store stove in a protected area away from children and pets.
• After product has been stored and prior to reusing, verify that burners are free from leaves, insects, spider
webs, dirt, etc. as these items can obstruct the flow of combustion air.
• Prior to each use, visually check the burner flame for proper operation as described on page 5.
DO NOT use if burner/flame is not operating properly.
• This stove requires an unobstructed airflow to operate correctly.
• During use or storage, always keep the stove area clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
NOTE: Due to the intense heat from burner, it is normal for paint burn off and discoloration to occur on stove
during the first few uses.
