Warning: Superb by Broilmaster
®
Gas Grills require Liquid
Propane (LP) cylinders equipped with an Overfill Protection
Device (OPD). An overfilled or improperly filled Propane
cylinder can be dangerous.
Always use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with
your Propane gas grill.
Note: Not all valve and cylinder combinations are compatible.
Check warning tag on valve and cylinder as well as external
fitting threads.
All Broilmaster pressure regulators and hose assemblies require
Propane cylinders with a Type 1 connection device as illustrated.
See Figure 17.
Pressure Regulator and Hose Assembly
The pressure regulator has an outlet pressure of not more than
eleven (11”) inches water column. It must be connected to the
Propane gas cylinder’s female valve outlet before the grill can be
operated.
Caution: Operation of a propane gas grill without the
pressure regulator and hose assembly will cause gas leaks which
could lead to fire or explosion, resulting in property damage
or personal injury.
The pressure regulator’s fitting must remain clean and free of
nicks and scratches. A dirty, nicked or scratched fitting can cause
a gas leak, resulting in an explosion or fire. Use only genuine

replacement parts unless otherwise specified by the
manufacturer.

discussed in the “Checking for Gas Leaks” Section of this manual
on page 9.
