Propane Cylinder Specifications

A dented or rusty cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane supplier. Never use a
cylinder with a damaged valve. The LP-gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance
with the U.S. D.O.T. Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders or the Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for
Transportation of Dangerous Good and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339, as applicable.
This appliance has been designed for use with a 20 lb. (9.1 kg) or 30 lb (13.6 kg) size propane cylinder only
(not supplied).
The LP-gas supply cylinder must be provided with a cylinder-connection device compatible with the
connection for the appliance. The propane cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in
a propane cylinder valve type QCC1, and a safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor
space of the cylinder. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and the cylinder
shall include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The LP-gas cylinder must be provided with a listed
overfill protection device (OPD). Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this appliance. Never
fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
Use only the pressure regulator and hose assembly provided with this appliance. Replacement pressure
regulators and hose assemblies must be specified by the manufacturer. The regulator supplies a pressure
of 11 inches. water column to the appliance and has a QCC1 type fitting. Cylinders to be used with this
unit must be supplied with a QCC1 cylinder valve. A QCC1 cylinder has a positive seating connection,
which will not allow gas flow until a positive seal has been achieved. It is also equipped with an excess flow
device. In order to attain full flow to the appliance, the valve must be in the off position when the cylinder
valve is turned on.
WARNING!
A fire will result if the gas supply hose makes contact with the underside of the
appliance.

bolt and nut supplied.
2. Tighten the lag screw into the mounting surface leaving
approximately 1/4" of thread above the surface.
3. Slide propane bottle into position so that the bracket slides
under the head of the lag screw.
4. Tighten the lag screw onto the bracket.
5. For fastening to a concrete surface a concrete anchor will
be required. (Not supplied)
Cylinder Connection: Ensure the gas regulator hose
is kink free. Remove the cap or plug from the cylinder
fuel valve. Insert the black QCC1 regulator nipple onto
the QCC1 fuel valve. Hand tighten clockwise. Do not use
tools. Leak test all joints prior to using the appliance.
A leak test must be performed annually and each time
a cylinder is hooked up or if a part of the gas system is
replaced.
If this appliance is to be connected directly to a house
propane gas supply line, follow the instructions for
the natural gas hook-up.
