• Press in and turn the variable control knob to the PILOT position (counter-clockwise 90 degrees).
• Hold the knob down for 90 seconds.
• While holding the knob, press the igniter button several times until the pilot flame lights.
• Release the knob once the pilot flame is lit.
• Turn the variable flame knob to the maximum position and leave for 5 minutes before adjusting to the desired heat.

Turning Off: Turn the variable control knob to the pilot position, push it in, and move to the OFF position. Turn off the cylinder valve completely.

Maintenance and Storage

• Check the hose and regulator for damage or leaks regularly. Replace the hose if it shows signs of cracking or deterioration.
• Keep the burner, control compartment, and air passageways clean.
• Wipe surfaces with a soft, moist rag. Do not use combustible or corrosive cleaners.
• Always turn off the gas valve on the cylinder after use and disconnect the valve for storage.

Troubleshooting

If the pilot will not light, check if the gas valve is open, the cylinder is empty, or if there is air in the supply system. If the pilot will not stay on, check for debris around the pilot, loose connections, or a faulty thermocouple. If the burner will not light, ensure the pressure is sufficient and the control is set correctly.
