2. Turn off the tank valve by turning the control
knob clockwise until it stops.
4. Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever
the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust
cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with
the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may
result in leakage of propane.
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the tank
valve by turning the quick coupling nut
counterclockwise.
LEAK TESTING
GENERAL
Although gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior
to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be
performed at the installation site. Before each use check
the whole system for leaks following the procedures listed
below.
If the smell of gas is detected at anytime, you should
immediately check the entire system for leaks.
BEFORE TESTING
Make sure all packing materials have been removed from
the grill, including the burner tie-down straps.
WARNING
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use
.
Do not use the grill until all connections have been
checked and do not leak.
Do not smoke while leak testing.
Never leak test with an open flame.
Make a solution of one part liquid detergent and one part
water. You will need a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply
the solution to the fittings. For the initial leak test, make
sure the liquid propane cylinder is full.
Error!
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer
should be used on the grill. Substitutions will void the
warranty.
GAS FLOW CHECK
Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory
prior to shipment. However, variations in the local gas
supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips,
excessive noise or lifting.
If any of these conditions exist, first check to see if the
burner is blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. If the
burners are clear of foreign objects or debris, please
contact customer service at 1-800-554-5799 for further
assistance.
Always check for leaks after every liquid propane cylinder
change.
It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the
shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings.
Bubbles indicate leaks.
Disconnected liquid propane cylinders must have
threaded valve plugs tightly installed, and must not be
stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
WARNING
Storage of an outdoor cooking gas appliance indoor is
permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and
removed from the outdoor cooking gas appliance
.
The gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder when
the unit is not in use.
If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be
disconnected and removed from the appliance. Cylinders
must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of
the reach of children.
WARNING
Cylinder must be stored outdoors out of the reach of
children and must not be stored in a building, garage
or any other enclosed area
.
TO TEST
1. Make sure the control valves are in the “OFF”
position, and turn the gas supply “ON”.
2. Apply the soap solution to all pipe fittings, from the
liquid propane cylinder up to and including the
connections to the burners. Soap bubbles will appear
where a leak is present.
3. If a leak is present, immediately turn off the gas
supply and tighten leaky fittings.
4. Turn the gas back “ON” and recheck.
5. Should the gas continue to leak from any of the
fittings, turn off the gas supply and contact customer
service at 1-800-554-5799.
6. If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or
the hose is cut, it must be replace prior to the outdoor
cooking gas appliance being put into operation.
