CONNECTION —
CONNECTION —
The propane cylinder valve connection provided with this grill incorporates the four
important safeguards listed:
HAND ASSEMBLY
1)
Make sure the cylinder valve and all appliance valves are in their "OFF" positions.
2)
When connecting regulator/burner valve assembly to cylinder valve, turn large
plastic nut clockwise until it stops.
3)
Gas will not flow unless plastic nut is fully engaged.
4)
HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
DISCONNECTING CYLINDER
1)
Turn cylinder valve and all appliance valves "OFF".
2)
Turn large plastic nut counterclockwise to disengage coupling.
WARNING: Do not use a tool to tighten the connection.
Using a tool could damage the regulator coupling and could
cause a leak resulting in serious bodily injury or death, or in
a fire or an explosion causing damage to property.
LIQUID PROPANE TANK SAFETY TIPS
Remember to handle your portable liquid propane tank carefully when you take
it to your dealer for a refill. Avoid dropping it or bumping it against sharp objects.
Liquid propane tanks are sturdily constructed, but a series of hard jolts could
damage the container.
When transporting the tank to your local propane gas dealer, make sure the valve
is closed tightly and the protective cover is in place. Prop the tank securely in an
upright position so it can't roll around your vehicle.
If you plan to make stops for other shopping or errands, have your liquid propane
tank filled at the last stop before going home. Again, see that the refilled tank is
secure in an upright position, and when you return home, remove the refilled tank
from your vehicle. Never leave a portable liquid propane tank inside a vehicle
which may become overheated by the sun.
Your local liquid propane gas dealer will gladly offer you additional safety tips.
STORE LIQUID PROPANE TANK SAFELY
Whether you're between cross-country treks in your recreational vehicle or looking for
a place to keep the liquid propane tank that provides fuel for your outdoor grill, keep in
mind some basic safety rules about storing portable liquid propane tanks. Don't store
the tanks - whether full or empty - inside your home, the living area of an R.V., a garage,
basement or workshop. It isn't likely that liquid propane will leak from the tanks, but if
it should, the fuel could be exposed to sparks from automobiles, power tools or other
appliances. When storing or transporting your LP tank, it must remain in an upright
position. Never lie your LP tank down on its side whether it is full or empty. Never store
a spare tank near your grill.
CAUTION: Never transport or move your grill or grill tank
without fi rst closing the manual valve on your liquid propane
gas tank.

LIQUID PROPANE GAS GRILLS
LIQUID PROPANE GAS GRILLS
EXCESS FLOW CONTROL
The propane regulator assembly incorporates a flow limiting device designed to supply
the grill with sufficient gas flow, yet control any excess flow.
Rapid changes in pressure can trigger the flow limiting device. If the cylinder valve is
turned to allow gas flow while a burner valve is open, the surge of pressure will cause
the device to activate. The device will remain closed until the pressure is equalized. This
should occur within a 5-second time frame. If the flame remains low, shut off the gas
valves, wait five seconds and relight grill one burner at a time.
To ensure that this does not cause difficulty in lighting the grill, follow these instructions:
1)
Make sure all burner valves are OFF.
2)
Open cylinder valve and wait 5 seconds.
3)
Follow lighting instructions.
TEMPERATURE-ACTIVATED SHUT-OFF
The large plastic nut on the regulator assembly is designed in coordination with a check
valve in the cylinder valve to shut off the flow of gas when exposed to temperatures
between 240-300ºF.
In the event of a fire or hose break, one of the safeguards will function to control or stop
the flow of gas from the propane cylinder. Never attempt to use damaged equipment.
IMPORTANT
When connecting or replacing any gas pipe with pipe threads or fi ttings, all joints must
be sealed with leak-proof sealing compound approved for use with natural and propane
gases. After making connections, check all joints for leaks using soapy water and a
brush.
CAUTION: Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever
the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap
on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of
propane.
The best place to store a liquid propane tank is in a shady or protected spot outdoors,
behind your home or garage, but where it is out of reach of children. Liquid propane
won't evaporate, because it's in a strong, closed container. And it won't lose any of its
clean-burning heat content, even if left outside year-round.
WARNING: When not connected to your grill, any LP gas tank
must be stored in an upright position in a cool, shady, ventilated,
outdoor location away from your grill or any other heat source. If
this information is not followed exactly, a fi re causing death or
serious injury may occur.
FILLING A PROPANE TANK
It is extremely important that your LP tank be filled properly when you take it to be
refilled. Be sure to use a reputable LP dealer and ask him (and watch, if possible) how
he fills the tank and knows when to stop. An overfilled LP tank can be dangerous. The
proper way to fill a tank is by weight. The empty tank should be placed on a scale and
the scale weights readjusted to a weight which would allow up to 80% of the total weight
of propane (LP) to be put into the tank. When this weight is reached, the filling operation
must be ended. If the tank is not completely empty, the scale readjustment must be
changed to consider the propane (LP) already in the tank.
