Type 1 Connector
Regulator
HOSE AND REGULATOR (INCLUDED WITH THE BURNER)
WARNING
Check hose for breaks or wear before each use.
The Type 1 connection system has the following features:
• The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has been
made.
• The tank control valve must be turned off before any connection is made or
removed.
• The system has a thermal element that will shut off the gas flow in the event
of a fire.
• The system has a flow-limiting device that will limit the flow of gas to 10
cubic feet per hour when activated.
• NEVER use the burner without leak testing this connection.
LP (PROPANE) GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
1. The tank valve should be in the “OFF” position. If not, turn the knob clockwise
until it stops.
2. Make sure all burner valves are in the “OFF” position.
3. Always connect the gas supply regulator as follows:
Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn the coupling nut clockwise
until the coupler tightens up (see picture). Do not over-tighten the coupler. Turn
the main tank valve on “ON” and turn the burner control valves “ON”.
4. 4. The outdoor cooking gas appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system. To do so, close its manual shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi {3.5 kPa}. Rotate the knob
to the “HIGH” position for about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to purge before attempting to light the
burners.
PRE-OPERATION LEAK TESTING
DANGER
• Do not insert any tool into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and cause a
leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
• If a leak is detected at any time, or you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately close the tank’s shutoff valve
(the gas supply from the LP tank to the burner) and call LP gas suppliers or your fire department.
• Check all gas supply fittings before each use and each time the gas supply tank is connected to the regulator.
Have a qualified service technician leak test the burner any time a part of the gas system is replaced.
• Never attempt to attach this side burner to the self-contained LP gas system. Do not use the side burner
until leak testing has been completed.
