Never fill the propane cylinder beyond 80% full. 

This grill is designed to connect to a standard 20 lb L.P. cylinder only, please refer to the Step 13 of assembly instructions for the 

installation.

Connecting the Gas Cylinder 

 
LP (Propane) Gas Supply Connection

 

1.  Always place the propane cylinder on the tank brackets located on the right side of the cart. 
2.  Always confirm that all burner control knobs are in the OFF position before activating the gas supply. 
3.  Before connection, be sure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the regulator valve, or in  

the head of the burner and burner ports.  

4.  Always connect the gas supply regulators as follows: 

Insert the nipple of the valve coupling into the tank valve and tighten the connection collar by  
turning it clockwise with one hand while holding the regulator with the other hand. 
(See diagram to right.) 

5.  Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the grill is not in use. 
6.  Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air and ventilation air to the grill. 
7.  Keep ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris. 
8.  Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Install only the type of dust cap on cylinder valve outlet 

that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane. 

 

DANGER

 

To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak: 

1.  Always perform the “leak test“ on page 12 before lighting the grill and each time the cylinder is connected for use. 
2.  Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.  
3.  Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area. 
4.  Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks. 
5.  Do not use grill until all leaks have been stopped. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the propane supply, call for gas 

appliance service or your local propane gas supplier. 

 

Checking for Leaks

 

1.    Make 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water. 
2.    Make sure control knobs are in the “OFF” position. 

3.    Spray some solution on the tank valve up to the regulator connection.  

(See diagram to right.) 

4.    Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles. If no bubbles appear,  

the connection is secure.                                    . 

5.    If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Go to step 6. 
6.    Disconnect the regulator from the tank and reconnect. Make sure the connection is secured. 
7.    Retest with solution. 
8.    If you continue to see bubbles, replace the cylinder.
