to the cylinder valve is acceptable, provided it is non-locking and can be opened without the use of tools.
The cylinder valve must be visible.
4. There must be a minimum clearance of 2 inches (51mm) between the floor of the LP-gas cylinder
enclosure and the ground.
5. The enclosure must be designed so that the LP-gas cylinder can be connected, disconnected and the
connections inspected and tested outside the cylinder enclosure. Any connections that can be disturbed
when installing the cylinder in the enclosure must be accessible be for testing inside the enclosure.
6. Maximum Cylinder Size: 20 lbs. (9 Kg)

professionally inspected before use.
13. Cylinders must be equipped with QCC Type 1 (Quick Closing Coupling) outlet.
14. Propane Cylinders must be equipped with a safety relief valve.
15. UL listed Overfill Protection Device (OPD); This OPD safety feature is identified by a unique triangular hand
wheel.
Only use cylinders equipped with this type of valve. (Fig. 8)
WHAT TO DO if SAFETY VALVE has tripped:
1. Turn off Propane Cylinder.
2. Disconnect the Propane Hose and Regulator from the Propane Cylinder.
3. Reconnect the Propane Hose and Regulator to the Propane Cylinder.
4.
Turn Gas Valve on slowly.
HANDLING PROPANE CYLINDERS: (NOT Included with Grill)
1. Government regulations prohibit shipping full Propane cylinders. New cylinders (not included) must be
taken to a Propane filling station for filling.
2. A full cylinder is under high pressure; always handle with care, and transport secured and in an upright
position. Protect the valve from accidental damage.
3.
Do not tip the propane cylinder while connecting it to your grill’s regulator
4. If the cylinder is tipped over while connected to your grill, shut it off and disconnect it; then have it checked
