Connecting A Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) Cylinder
To The Grill
1. Place the fixed gas cylinder in the designated hole
in the bottom of the cart. Attach tank clamp to cylinder
and cart using wing nut (supplied with the cart). Make
sure the LPG cylinder valve is in the full OFF position.
(Turn clockwise to close.)
2. Check the cylinder valve features to ensure it has
proper external mating threads to fit the hose and
regulator assembly provided. (Type 1 connection per
ANSI Z21.58a-1998)
3. Make sure the burner valve is in the OFF position.
4. Inspect the valve connection port and regulator as-
sembly. Look for any damage or debris. Remove any
debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never attempt to use
damaged or plugged equipment.
5. Connect brass fitting on the end of the hose/regulator
assembly to valve of grill (remove red cap from valve).
6. When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to
the cylinder valve, hand tighten nut clockwise to a full
stop (see Figure 6). DO NOT use a wrench to tighten
because it could damage the Quick Coupling Nut and
result in a hazardous condition.
7. Open the cylinder valve fully (counterclockwise). Use
a commercially-available, non-corrosive leak check
solution to check all connections for leaks before
attempting to light the grill. If a leak is found, turn
the cylinder valve off and do not use the grill until
repairs are made.
