Only the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the outdoor cooking gas appliance must be used. Replacement
pressure regulators and hose assembly must be those specified by the outdoor cooking gas appliance manufacturer. Use only
20-pound cylinders equipped with a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.
The cylinder must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Do not drop or handle the cylinder roughly. Disconnect the
propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the grill is not in use.
Storage of the appliance indoors is permissible ONLY if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance. Store
cylinder outdoors and keep out of the reach of children. Do not store the cylinder in a building, garage or other enclosed areas.
Never store your cylinder where temperatures can reach over 51.7
℃
.
Before connecting, make sure there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, regulator valve or in the head of the
burner and burner ports. Connect regulator valve and hand tighten firmly. DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion air or
ventilation air to the grill. Ensure the propane cylinder is in an upright position to allow the gas to leave the cylinder. Otherwise
the overfill prevention device within the cylinder will prevent proper gas flow.

Connecting & Disconnecting the Gas Cylinder
LP (Propane) Gas Supply Connection & Disconnection
1.
Always place the propane cylinder on the tank brackets located on the right side of the cart.
2.
Always confirm all burner control knobs are in the OFF position before activating the gas supply.
3.
Before connection, be sure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the
regulator valve, or in the head of the burner and burner ports.
4.
Always connect the gas supply regulators as follows: Insert the nipple of the valve coupling into the
tank valve and tighten the connection collar by turning it clockwise with one hand while holding the
regulator with the other hand.(See diagram to right.)
5.
Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the grill is not in use.
6.
Always confirm all burner control knobs are in the OFF position before disconnecting the gas supply.
7.
Before disconnecting, be sure that the tank valve is in OFF position.
8.
Always disconnect the gas supply regulators as follows: Loosen the connection collar by turning it
counter-clockwise with one hand while holding the regulator with the other hand and take the nipple
of the valve out of the tank valve (See diagram to right.) Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air and
ventilation air to the grill. Keep ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.
9.
Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Install only the type of dust cap on cylinder
valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
DANGER
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak:
1.
Always perform the “leak test“ as below before lighting the grill and each time the cylinder is connected for use.
2.
Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.
3.
Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
4.
