CYLINDERS AND REGULATORS 

The Pro Steamer’s self-contained propane system is designed for use with a 9.1 kg. (20
lb.) Propane cylinder, equipped with a Type I cylinder valve. This appliance cannot be
connected to a standard Type II valve (with internal left-hand threads only).

DO NOT CONNECT TO A PROPANE GAS CYLINDER EXCEEDING THIS
CAPACITY, OR USE A CYLINDER WITH ANY OTHER TYPE OF VALVE.  

The Type I (Q.C.C.1) valve is recognizable by the large external thread on the outlet part
of the valve. Standard valves do not have these exterior threads. Any attempt to fit the
regulator(s) with anything other than the mating Type I (Q.C.C.1) connector, (recognized
by the large plastic coupling nut) will negate the important safety features designed into
the Type I (Q.C.C.1) system. Fitting a standard #510 P.O.L connector, will not provide the
excess flow control or temperature shut-off safety features built into the complete Type I
(Q.C.C.1) system.

The cylinder should not exceed 472 mm (18-1/2”) in height and 317 mm (12-1/2”) in
diameter. When purchasing a cylinder for your Pro Steamer, it must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the specifications of: 

a) Canada - The Canadian Transport Commission 

b) U.S.A. - The U.S. Department of Transportation 

The cylinder must also be equipped with: 

a) A shut-off valve terminating in a proper cylinder valve outlet specified in current
standards: 

1) Canada: CAN/CGA - 1.6 - M88 - Outdoor Gas Grills - Amend. 1. 

2) U.S.A.: ANSI/CGA-V-1-1977: Compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet
connections.

b) A safety relief valve having direct communication with the vapor space of the cylinder. 

c) A collar to protect the cylinder shut-off valve. 

d) An arrangement for vapor withdrawal. 

e) A bottom ring for securing to the cylinder support assembly. 

WARNING! 

• Always turn off the cylinder valve when your Pro Steamer is not in use.

• Handle cylinder valves with care.

• Never connect an unregulated LP gas cylinder to the Pro Steamer.

• Never store a spare cylinder under or near your Pro Steamer, or subject any cylinder

to excessive heat.

• Always keep cylinder(s) securely fastened in an upright position.
