INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the plastic valve cover from the Liquid
Propane cylinder. Make sure the gas hose for this
grill never makes contact with the grease cup or
the grill firebox.
CONNECTING THE LP CYLINDER
To connect the Liquid Propane gas supply cylinder:
• The cylinder valve should be in the "OFF"
position. If not, turn the valve clockwise until it
stops.
•
Make sure the cylinder valve has the proper
type-1 external male thread connections per
ANSI Z21.81.
• Make sure the burner valves are in the "OFF"
position.
•
Inspect the valve connections, port and
regulator assembly. Remove all debris and
inspect the hose for any damage.
• When connecting the regulator assembly to the
valve, use your hand to tighten the nut
clockwise until it stops. Using a wrench could
damage the quick coupling nut and result in a
hazardous situation.
• Open the cylinder valve turning the valve
counterclockwise.
• Before lighting the grill, use a soap and water
solution to check all the connections for leaks.
•
If a leak is found, turn the cylinder valve "OFF"
and do not use the grill until a local Liquid
Propane dealer can make repairs.
DISCONNECTING THE LP CYLINDER
• Turn the grill burner valves "OFF" and make sure
the grill is cool.
• Turn the Liquid Propane cylinder valve "OFF" by
turning clockwise until it stops.
•
Detach the regulator assembly from the cylinder
valve by turning the quick coupling nut
counterclockwise.
• Place the dust cap on the 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 a leakage of
propane.
