GAS REQUIREMENTS

LP gas grill models are designed for use with a 

standard 20 lb. liquid propane gas (LP) tank with 

type (1) valve connections. (Not included)

Never connect your gas grill to an LP tank that 

exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 

12 inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the 

maximum size LP gas tank to use. A propane tank 

with an OPD (Overfill Prevention Device) must be 

used. This safety feature prevents the tank from 

being over-filled which can cause malfunction of 

the LP gas tank, regulator and/or grill. 

The LP cylinder must be constructed and 

marked in accordance with the specifications 

for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of 

Transportation (DOT) and designed for use with 

a Type 1 system only. Be sure to read and follow all 

LP connection instructions.

A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be hazardous 

and should be avoided. If in doubt, have it 

checked by your LP supplier. Always check 

for leaks after every LP cylinder change. (See 

Checking For Leaks)

Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-

ventilated area out of the reach of children. If 

your grill is stored indoors, the LP cylinder must 

be stored outside, in upright position and away 

from excessive heat.

CONNECTING TO A SIDE BURNER

You will need a ‘T’ adapter fitting (not provided) 

or similar connection to connect a single gas line 

to both a side burner and a grill.  We recommend 

a licensed gas technician install all gas lines. See 

below figure for installation of a ‘T’ adapter.

IMPORTANT

All installation and all installation parts must 

conform to local codes with the National 

Electrical Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 70 latest 

edition and the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 

Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the U.S. and CGA-B149.1/.2 

in Canada

LIQUID PROPANE INSTALLATION

NOTE:

Ventilation is require in the enclosure 

on opposite sides to create cross-ventilation.  

Liquid propane is heavier than natural gas and 

vents should be located near the bottom of the 

enclosure. 

Before lighting the burners, inspect the gas 

supply piping or hose. If there is evidence of 

cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be replaced 

prior to use. Always keep your face and body 

as far away from the grill as possible when 

lighting. 

WARNING!

Never operate the grill unattended. 

DO 

NOT OPERATE ROTISSERIE BURNER WITH 

WARMING RACK INSTALLED
