Getting Started
Connecting StarFire XT to a gas supply
StarFire XT can be used with natural gas (gas mixture, >85% methane, further
alkanes) and commercial butane/propane gas (gas mixture, 65%-10% butane, 20%-40%
propane). When connecting to natural gas be sure to use only approved and tested
gas safety hose with an inner diameter of 10 mm.
Changing the nozzles
To exchange gas nozzles, follow the following procedures:
Fitting the appropriate gas nozzle
The E nozzle for natural gas is fitted ex-factory for StarFire XT. Should you plan to use
either propane or butane as fuel, please change the nozzle.
Type of Gas
Natural gas (methane)
Butane/propane gas
CAUTION
STOP
StarFire XT must only be operated with the correct nozzle that corresponds to the
type of gas used. Only use nozzles supplied with StarFire XT. While changing
nozzles the user should inspect the o-ring located in the brass screw (see above) for
damage and replace if necessary.
Installing and removing adapters for gas connection
StarFire XT is supplied with a barbed 10mm tubing adapter. The adapter is to be used
when using house or natural gas and not intended for use with the CV360 gas cartridge.
• Insert the barbed adapter in the gas adapter opening of StarFire XT, until it clicks into
position.
• Connect to the gas supply with safety tubing and secure with a clip if necessary.
