CHECKING FOR LEAKS:

CAUTION: Strong odors, colds, sinus congestion, etc. may prevent the detection of propane by smell.
Use caution and common sense when testing for leaks.
Note: The leak test must be performed in an area that has adequate lighting in order to see if bubbles
are developing and not in a windy or noisy area so larger leaks can be detected by smell or sound.
1. Create a mixture of 50% water and 50% liquid dishwashing soap.
2. Open lid.
3. Ensure all control knobs are set to "OFF".
4. Turn on gas at cylinder valve. Turn cylinder valve knob counter-clockwise
to full open. If you hear a rushing sound or smell gas, turn gas off.
Tighten any leaking connections. If leak is detected at connection nut
and tightening does not stop leak, reinspect propane tank rubber seal.
5. Apply a soapy water mixture to the following:
Supply tank (cylinder) weld.
A
Back side of connection nut to brass nipple.
B
Connection nut to tank valve.
C
Brass nipple connection into regulator.
D
Regulator connections to gas supply hoses.
E
Gas supply hose connection to side burner valve assembly.
F
Side burner valve stem cap.
G
Hose connection to gas manifold.
H
The full length of gas supply hose.
I

J
6. Check each place listed (A–J) for growing bubbles, which indicates a
leak. Large leaks may not be detected by bubbles but should produce a
rushing sound or gas smell.
7. Turn off gas supply at cylinder valve.
8. Turn on control knobs to release gas pressure in hose.
9. Turn control knobs "OFF".
10. Tighten any leaking connections. If leak is detected at connection nut
and tightening does not stop leak, reinspect propane tank rubber seal.
(see page 6)
11. Repeat soapy water test until no leaks are detected.
12. Turn off gas supply at cylinder valve until you are ready to use your grill.
13. Wash off soapy residue with cold water and towel dry.
14. Wait 5 minutes to allow all gas to evacuate area before lighting grill.
WARNING: DO NOT use grill if leaks cannot be stopped. Contact a
qualified gas appliance repair service.
