The regulator supplies a pressure of 11 inches water column to the gas grill and has a QCC1 type fitting. Cylinders to be used
with this unit must be supplied with a Sherwood #3349 QCC1 cylinder valve. A QCC1 cylinder has a positive seating connection,
which will not allow gas flow until a positive seal has been achieved. It is also equipped with an excess flow device. In order to
attain full flow to the barbecue, the valves must be in the off position when the cylinder valve is turned on.
PROPANE CYLINDER SPECIFICATIONS: A dented or rusty cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane
supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Use only a propane supply cylinder constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the Canadian Transport Commission (CTC) or the US Department of Transportation
(DOT). This appliance has been designed for use with a 20lb. (9.1 kg) size propane cylinder only (not supplied).
The propane cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in a propane cylinder valve type QCC1, and a safety relief
device having direct communication with the vapour space of the cylinder. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapour
withdrawal and the cylinder shall include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder shall incorporate an OPD (overfill
protection device).
