Model M5HPR1 Regulator Hose Assembly
Rapid gas flow from propane
tank activates EXCESS FLOW
safety device because
Regulator Valve is not in OFF
position
ATTENTION: Always turn Regulator Control Knob/Valve
to OFF position after every use! Propane Tanks, and this Cooker,
come equipped with a safety device that restricts the flow of gas should the
hose be cut or severed. While the safety device protects the operator,
it can sometimes impair lighting the cooker. To reduce trouble lighting
the cooker, always turn the regulator control knob/valve to the OFF position
after every use.
Turn Valve CLOCKWISE
to OFF position
