occur.
A dented or rusty cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane supplier. Never use a
cylinder with a damaged valve. Use only a propane supply cylinder constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-b339, Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable or the Specifica-
tions for LP-Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.). This appliance has been designed
for use with a 20 lb. (9.1 kg) size propane cylinder only (not supplied).
The propane cylinder must be provided with a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection
for outdoor cooking appliances. The propane cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in
a propane cylinder valve type QCC1, and a safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor
space of the cylinder. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and the cylinder
shall include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder shall incorporate a listed OPD (overfill protec-
tion device). Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this appliance. Never fill the cylinder beyond
80 percent full.
Use only the pressure regulator and hose assembly provided with this barbecue. Replacement pressure regu-
lators and hose assemblies must be specified by the manufacturer. Do not store a spare propane cylinder on
the shelf beneath the barbecue.
The regulator supplies a pressure of 11 inches. water column to the gas grill and has a QCC1 type fitting. Cyl-
inders to be used with this unit must be supplied with a QCC1 cylinder valve. A QCC1 cylinder has a positive
seating connection, which will not allow gas flow until a positive seal has been achieved. It is also equipped
with an excess flow device. In order to attain full flow to the grill, the valves must be in the off position when
the cylinder valve is turned on.

valve. Insert the black QCC1 regulator nipple onto the QCC1 fuel valve. Hand tighten clockwise. Do not use
tools. Leak test all joints prior to using the grill. A leak test must be performed annually and each time a cylin-
der is hooked up or if a part of the gas system is replaced.
If this grill is to be connected directly to a house propane gas supply line, follow the instructions for the natural
gas hook-up. Optional side burners must also follow the natural gas hook-up instructions. Note: The propane
tank heat shield is not required when the grill is connected to a fixed fuel supply, as its sole function is to shield
the propane tank normally used with the grill. Ensure that the supply pressure is 11 inches water column.
