RUSTA DAKAR Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 4

ENG
USE
• The heater is designed to only be used with liquefied petroleum gas.
• A gas cylinder of up to 11 kg is needed to run the heater.
• The heater and gas cylinder must be connected to a CE-approved regulator and hose
with an operating pressure of 30 mbar.
• Using the incorrect regulator or hose is dangerous and can cause injuries.
• Worn or damaged hoses must be replaced immediately. Regularly check the condition
of the hose. We recommended replacing the hose every two years.
• It is prohibited to make modifications to the gas cylinder. This can have fatal
consequences.
• The gas cylinder must not be dropped or handled carelessly.
• The gas in the cylinder is under high pressure and must not be exposed to
temperatures over 50°C.
• Contact your nearest Rusta store for information on which regulator fits your gas
cylinder and your heater.
CONNECTING THE GAS CYLINDER TO THE HEATER
• Make sure that the gas cylinder's valve is turned off.
• Connect the regulator's wing nut to the thread on the gas cylinder's valve. Tighten the
wing nut anti-clockwise by hand; do not use a tool as this could damage the valve's seal.
• Connect the hose to the heater's nipple. If the hose is difficult to put on, you can try
putting a little soap on the hose. The hose must be connected to the heater's nipple
using a hose clamp.
• Check to make sure the hose is not clogged and that there are no knots or kinks in it.
• When you put the gas cylinder in the heater, it must not come into contact with the back
of the burner plate. Check that the hose is not against the back of the burner plate.
• Check for leaks in the gas cylinder, regulator, hose and heater, before you start using
the heater. See the section Checking for leaks.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
• Mix soap with water. Check that the valve on the gas cylinder is closed and that the
heater control is in the off position.
• Apply soap solution onto the gas cylinder's valve, regulator, hose and connector to the
heater.
• Open the valve on the gas cylinder. If there are small bubbles, there is a leak.
• Close the valve on the gas cylinder and tighten the hose connectors. Perform the test
again. If there is still a leak, contact your Rusta store.
