4. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to set up your Wiltec Outdoor Gas Stove:
- Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
- Placement: Place the stove on a stable, level, non-combustible surface, away from any flammable materials. Ensure there is ample overhead clearance.
- Connect Gas Cylinder: Ensure the gas inlet valve on the stove is in the 'OFF' position. Connect the gas regulator hose from your propane or butane cylinder to the stove's gas inlet valve. Tighten securely by hand, then use a wrench for a final snug turn. Do not overtighten.
- Leak Test: Before lighting, perform a leak test. Open the gas cylinder valve slightly. Apply a soapy water solution to all connections. If bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close the gas cylinder valve immediately and re-tighten connections. Repeat the test. If leaks persist, do not use the stove and contact customer support.
- Initial Preheating: For the first use, preheat the stove for a few minutes to eliminate any manufacturing residues. This ensures optimal and safe operation.
