OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Disconnecting A Liquid Propane Gas
(LP Gas) Tank From Your Grill:
1. Turn the burner knobs and LP gas tank
valve to the full OFF position.
(Turn clockwise to close.)
2. Detach the hose and regulator assembly
from the LP gas tank valve by turning the
quick coupling nut counterclockwise.
See Fig. 5.
CAUTION: When the appliance is not in
use, the gas must be turned off at the
supply tank
.
L.P. TANK INFORMATION
Never use a dented or rusted L.P. tank or cylinder with a damaged valve.
L.P. cylinders are equipped with an O.P.D. (Overfilling Prevention Device). The device shuts off
the flow of gas to a cylinder after 80% capacity is reached. This limits the potential for release of
gas when the cylinder is heated, averting a fire or possible injury.
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in an L.P. gas supply cylinder outlet
specified, as applicable, for connection No. 510 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder
valve outlet and inlet connection ANSI/CGA-V-1. Cylinders must not be stored in a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area. (The L.P. cylinder must have an overfill protection device
and a collar to protect the cylinder valve.)
The L.P. gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications for L.P. gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the
National Standard of Canada, CAN/CAS-B339, "Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the
Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission."
L.P. TANK USE
• When turning the L.P. tank on, make sure to open the valve SLOWLY two (2) complete
turns to ensure proper gas flow. Most gas tanks now come equipped with a leak
detector mechanism internal to the tank. When gas is allowed to escape rapidly it shuts
off the gas supply. Opening the valve rapidly may simulate a gas leak, causing the
safety device to activate, restricting gas flow causing low flames. Opening the valve
slowly will ensure this safety feature is not falsely triggered.
• When not in use, gas supply cylinder valve is to be in the "OFF" position.
• The tank supply system must be stored upright to allow for vapor withdrawal.
• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected before each use of the grill. If there is
excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being used
again.
