Only the pressure regulator and hose assembly
supplied with the grill should be used. Any
replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly
must be specified by the grill manufacturer.

L.P. Tank Requirements
A dented or rusty L.P. tank may be hazardous and
should be checked by your L.P. supplier. Never use
a cylinder with a damaged valve. The L.P. gas
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/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for
Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and
Commission.
The cylinder must be provided with a shut valve
terminating in an L.P. gas supply cylinder valve
outlet specified, as applicable, for connection type
QCC1 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder
valve outlet and inlet connection ANSI/CGA-V-1.
The cylinder supply system must be arranged for
vapor withdrawal. The cylinder must include a collar
to protect the cylinder valve.
Manifold pressure: (operating): 10” water column
(W.C.), (non-operating): 11.2” water column (W.C.).
L.P. GAS HOOK-UP:
Ensure that the black plastic grommets on the LP
cylinder valve are in place and that the hose does
not come into contact with the grease tray or the
grill head.
CONNECTION:
Your grill is equipped with gas supply orifices for
use only with liquid propane gas. It is also equipped
with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly for
connection to a standard 20lb. L.P. cylinder (18-1/4”
high, 12-1/4” diameter).
To connect the L.P. gas supply cylinder, please
follow the steps below:
1. Make sure tank valve is in its full off position
(turn clockwise to stop)
2. Check tank valve to assure it has proper
external male threads (type 1 connection per
ANSIZ21.81)
3. Make sure all burner valves are in their off
position.
4. Inspect valve connections, port, and regulator
assembly. Look for any damage or debris.
Remove any debris. Inspect hose for damage.
Never attempt to use damaged or obstructed
equipment. See your local L.P. gas dealer for
repair.
5. When connecting regulator assembly to the
valve, hand tighten the nut clockwise to a
complete stop. Do not use a wrench to tighten.
Use of a wrench may damage the quick
coupling nut and result in a hazardous
condition.
6. Open the tank valve fully (counterclockwise).
Use a soapy water solution to check all
connections for leaks before attempting to light
the grill, see below. If a leak is found, turn the
tank valve off and do not use the grill until a
local L.P. gas dealer can make repairs.
To disconnect L.P. gas cylinder:
1. Turn the burner valves off.
2. Turn the tank valve off fully (turn clockwise to
stop).
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the tank
valve by turning the quick coupling nut
counterclockwise.
GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak
tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete
gas tightness check must be performed at the
installation site due to possible mishandling in
shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being
applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole
system for leaks following the procedures listed
below. If the smell of gas is detected at anytime you
