Installation
4.
If the information in “2” and “ 3” is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
5.
Always transport in an upright position.
6. Do not smoke when transporting your cylinder.
7. 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.
LP GAS CYLINDER (NOT SUPPLIED WITH THIS GRILL)
The LP cylinder to be used with this grill must have a 20 lb. / 9.1 kg. capacity incorporating a Type 1 cylinder
valve and an over-filling protection device (OPD). Do not connect this grill to an existing #510 POL cylinder
valve with left hand threads. The Type 1 valve can be identified with the large external threads on the valve
outlet. Do not connect to a propane cylinder exceeding this capacity. Do not connect to a cylinder that uses any
other type of valve connection device.
REGULATOR AND LP CYLINDER CONNECTIONS
CAUTION
The gas pressure regulator provided with this outdoor appliance must be used. This regulator is set for an
outlet pressure of 11” water column.
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 exceeds
240°F / 115°C. It also has a flow-limiting device that will restrict the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour. Before
each use, check the gas hose for excessive abrasion or wear, or cuts. Replace a hose assembly showing
those signs immediately.
TO CONNECT THE CYLINDER TO THE REGULATOR AND HOSE
1.
Ensure the LP cylinder is “OFF” by turning the hand wheel clockwise until it stops.
2.
Place the cylinder on the hook beside the body with the valve facing outward.
3.
Be sure all burner controls are turned to the “OFF” position.
4. Remove the safety cap from the cylinder valve.
5. Center the nipple of the regulator into the cylinder valve.
6. Turn the black nut clockwise until it stops.
Hand tighten only. Do not use a wrench.
WARNING
1. Do not connect this grill to any unregulated sources of propane.
2.
Before each use, check the gas hose for excessive abrasion, wear, or cuts. Replace a hose assembly
showing those signs with the hose assembly specified in the parts list before using the grill.
3.
Always perform the Leak Test listed below before using your grill for the first time after the cylinder has
been changed, any gas components have been changed, the regulator flow-limiting device has been
activated, or after a long period of non-use.
4.
Do not attempt to connect this grill to the LP system of a motor home or trailer.
