A dented or rusty L.P. tank may be hazardous and should be
checked by your L.P. supplier. Never use a cylinder with a
damaged valve. The L.P. gas cylinder must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the specifications for L.P. gas cylinders
of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes
for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as
applicable. Overfilling prevention device (OPD) shall be provided
on cylinder & QCCI connection on the cylinder valve, ANSI/CGA-
V-1. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal. The cylinder must include a collar to protect the
cylinder valve. The cylinder must be provided with a shut off valve
terminal in an L.P. gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as
applicable, for connection type QCC1 in the standard for
compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection
ANSI/CGA-V-1. Manifold pressure:11” water column(W.C.).
Ensure that the black plastic grommets on the LP cylinder valve
are in place and that the hose does not come into contact with the
grease tray or the grill head.
You grill is equipped with gas supply orifices for use only with
