Connecting Gas Cylinder
1.
ALwAyS
place the propane cylinder on the tank
holder under the cart.
2.
ALwAyS
confirm that all burner control knobs are
in the •
OFF
position before activating the gas
supply.
3. Before connection, be sure that there is no debris
caught in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the
regulator valve, or in the head of the burner and
burner ports.
4.
ALwAyS
connect the gas supply regulators as
follows: Insert the nipple of the valve coupling into
the tank valve and tighten the connection collar by
turning it clockwise with one hand while holding
the regulator with the other hand.
5. Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator
valve when the grill is not in use.
6.
DO NOT
obstruct the flow of combustion air and
ventilation air to the grill.
7. Keep ventilation openings of the cylinder
enclosure free and clear from debris.
Please make sure the cylinder valve connection
device shall properly and safely mate with the
connection device attached to the inlet of the pressure
regulator.
Checking for Leaks
1. Make 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part
liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2. Make sure control knobs are in the •
OFF
position.
3. Spray some solution on the tank valve up to the
valve connection. (See diagram to below.)
4. Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles.
If no bubbles appear, the connection is secure.
5. If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Go to step 6.
6. Disconnect the regulator from the tank and
reconnect. Make sure the connection is tight and
secured.
7. Retest with solution.
8. If “growing” bubbles appear do not use or move the
LP cylinder. Contact an LP gas supplier or your fire
department!
To prevent fire or explosion
hazard when testing for a leak:
1.
ALwAyS
perform the “leak test“
before lighting the grill and each
time the cylinder is connected
for use.
2.
DO NOT
smoke or allow other
sources of ignition in the area
while conducting a leak test.
3. Conduct the leak test outdoors
in a well-ventilated area.
4.
DO NOT
use matches, lighters
or a flame to check for leaks.
5.
DO NOT
use grill until all
leaks have been stopped. If
you are unable to stop a leak,
disconnect the propane supply,
call for gas appliance service or
your local propane gas supplier.
