Frequently Asked questions And Answers
1. what is the problem if the cooker takes too long or will not heat oil or cooking ingredients to desired
temperature? My cooker’s flame appearance is very weak.
Answer: If the hose assembly has a Type 1 Connection (black/green knob), it is equipped with a flow limiting
device. This device is intended to limit the flow of gas should there be a leak between the regulator and the appliance.
To achieve a positive gas seal, which will allow for maximum gas flow, the manual valve must be set to a
completely OFF position before the cylinder valve is opened. A good tip to remember is “Tank Is First On, Last Off.”
The Problem Can Be Remedied in Two Ways:
A. 1. Turn the manual valve to the OFF position. Close the tank valve completely by turning it clockwise
until it stops.
2. Check that the Type 1 Connection (black/green knob) is completely tightened to the tank valve.
3. Wait 5 seconds for the pressure to equalize and for the flow limiting device to reset.
4. Turn tank valve ON (counterclockwise.)
5. Turn the manual valve to an ON position.
6. Relight cooker following all lighting instructions contained in this manual. Check for proper flame
characteristics.

2. How long will the propane in my tank last?
Answer: On average, a full tank will give you approximately 15 hours of normal cooking.
3. I have a new style tank and it won’t connect to my regulator. What do I do?
Answer: The regulator supplied with this appliance has a Type 1 Connection which will attach to the tank valve
which has large threads on the valve outlet. These connect into the large plastic handnut (black or green). This tank will
also connect to earlier models of Metal Fusion cooker regulators which had a brass plug connector with left hand
threads, which will connect to the internal threads of the Type 1 tank valve (with a wrench). If your tank has a quick
disconnect valve (plug in type) our regulators can not connect to this tank.
4. I have a brand new cooker and I cannot get the burner to light. What’s the problem?
Answer: Make sure the tank has been filled with propane. Tanks purchased from the store shelf are most often
sold empty. If this does not solve the problem refer to Maintenance Instruction items #3 and #4, page 15. If you have
questions please call Metal Fusion, Inc. at (800) 783-3885.
