CAUTION
Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder after filling to ensure
that the cylinder is not over filled.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly with the Type 1 fitting
supplied with the appliance must be used. Do not use another
hose and regulator assembly other than the one supplied with the
grill or a Coleman® replacement pressure regulator assembly. The
pressure regulator and hose assembly provided is factory set at
an outlet pressure of 11 inches water column (1/2 psi).
• Keep the small vent hole in the regulator clean of dirt and debris
(see item [G], Fig. 14).
• Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you think the regulator is not
working properly.
WARNING
• DO NOT attempt to adjust the regulator as this could
create a situation causing personal injury or property
damage.
WARNING
During assembly of the grill and when attaching or replacing
the L.P. gas cylinder, insure that the gas supply hose is free
of kinks and/or damage and is at least 3 inches away from
hot surfaces such as the grill housing.
Hose and Regulator
Transporting the Cylinder
• Transport only one cylinder at a time.
• Transport the cylinder in an upright and secure manner with a
control valve turned off and the cap in place.
• DO NOT transport the cylinder in the passenger compartment,
unless you have an open window ventilation.
• DO NOT leave the cylinder in direct sunlight or in a high heat area
such as a closed car trunk. High heat areas could cause the relief
valve to vent gas.
• Use a cylinder cap on the cylinder valve outlet during transport
and when the cylinder is not connected to the grill.
• Keep the cylinder valve closed when not in use.
• Take the cylinder directly home after it has been filled.
The Type 1 connection system has the following features:
1. The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection
has been made.
NOTE:
The cylinder control valve must be turned off before any
connection is made or removed.
2. The system has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas
in the event of a fire.
3. The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will
limit the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
4. NEVER use grill without leak testing this connection.
WARNING
Handle a full cylinder with care. Gas is under high pressure.
DANGER
• NEVER store a spare L.P. gas supply cylinder under the grill
body or inside the grill enclosure or in the vicinity of any heat
producing appliance. (Fig. 16)
• NEVER fill the cylinder beyond 80% full.
Failure to follow this information exactly could result in an
explosion and/or fire causing death or serious injury.
• When using cylinder exchange: If your grill is equipped with a
Type 1 cylinder, be sure the exchanged cylinder is a Type 1
cylinder, as a 510 POL cylinder will not fit Type 1 regulator.
• This tank is easily filled with a standard CGA 510 POL filling
connection. (Fig. 17)
• New cylinders must be purged before filling. Tell your L.P. Gas
dealer if your cylinder is new and has not been previously filled.
The L.P. Gas cylinder has a Type 1 cylinder valve with a back-
check module in its outlet which will not permit gas to flow until
an evacuation device is installed. To purge the L.P. Gas cylinder,
the back-check module must be opened with an evacuation
device.
Take these instructions to the L.P. gas dealer.
DANGER
Purging and filling of L.P. Gas cylinders must be performed
by personnel who have been thoroughly trained in accepted
L.P. Gas industry procedures. Failure to follow this instruction
may result in explosion, fire, serious personal injury, or
death.
