Regulator and LP Cylinder Connections
Your regulator is equipped with a Q.C.C. Type 1 quick connect system. It will not allow gas to flow until a
positive seal has been made. It has a thermal element that will shut off the gas flow if the temperature reaches
240 degrees F (115 degrees C). It also has a flow-limiting device that will restrict the flow of gas to 10 cubic
feet per hour (0.28 cubic meters per hour).
Before each use, check the gas hose for excessive abrasion or wear, or cuts. Replace a hose assembly showing
those signs with the hose assembly specified in the parts list before using the grill
.
