INSTALLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) ONTO THE GRILL:
1.
Check that the cylinder valve is closed by turning the knob clockwise. Inspect cylinder valve rubber seal
for cracks or deterioration. Do not use propane tank with damaged seal as a gas leak may occur.
2. Place the cylinder into the notches of the tank holder on the bottom of right legs.
3. Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the right side of the grill, and so that the hose is
not kinked or damaged. Then slide tank brace over cylinder handle and secure tightly.
•
Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for cracks,
wear or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber
seal can cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an
explosion, fi re or severe bodily harm.
•
Inspection should be done each time the propane tank
is connected to the grill, has been refi lled, exchanged or
has not been used for more than 60 days.
•
Do not use a propane tank with a damaged rubber seal.
Exchange the tank or have the rubber seal replaced at a
qualifi ed propane fi lling station.
