CARING FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT

ELECTRICAL CAUTION

• If any accessory installed on this barbeque requires an external electrical

power source, it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local

PROVIDING POWER TO YOUR BARBEQUE

To provide power to the barbecue, plug grounded electrical cord into rear electrical box as shown. (Fig.15)

laws or in the absence of local laws, with the Canadian Electrical Code

CSA C22.1 or in the U.S., with the National Electrical Code ANSI-NFPA 70.

• The three-prong plug provides protection against shock hazard and should

be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do

not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

• To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to

properly earthed outlets only.

• Ensure all electrical supply cords and fuel supply hoses are kept well away

from any heated surfaces.

Plug electrical cord into properly grounded GFI (Ground Fault Interrupt) receptacle. If use of an extension cord is required, be sure that it is a minimum 16 AWG,

3 wire well insulated cord, marked

for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and properly grounded. (Fig.14)

CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly earthed outlets only.

L.P. GAS CYLINDER

Gas cylinders manufactured today have mechanisms to provide worry free barbequing year round:

Q.C.C.1 or Type 1-Quick Connect Coupling Valve, ensure fast tank hook-ups requiring only hand tightening. The redundant valve system inhibits the flow of gas to the burner if the connection is not 100% correct.

O.P.D. or Overfill Protection Device prevents accidental gas leaks caused by cylinder “over pressurization”, the leading cause of cylinder gas leaks. The float in the tank will automatically stop filling at 80% capacity, leaving a 20% area for the expansion of liquid. Without this safety feature, the relief valve may open and discharge propane, creating a potential safety hazard. An O.P.D. cylinder is easily distinguished by its triangular hand wheel valve. (Figure 3)

Any attempt to connect a regulator, with other than the:

i)Mating Type 1 connector (recognized by the large black coupling nut) or

ii)Standard #510 P.O.L. fitting,

by use of adapters or any other means, could result in damage, fire or injury and may negate the important safety features designed into the Type 1 system. The connection of a #510 P.O.L. fitting will not provide the flow control or temperature shut-off features built into the complete Type 1 system.

We strongly recommend use of a propane cylinder with Q.C.C.I and O.P.D. safety features.

THE CYLINDER MUST ALSO BE EQUIPPED WITH:

TM

Look for the Gas Guardian symbol to easily identify propane cylinders with these safety features.

1. SPECIFICATIONS

Self-contained propane gas barbeque systems are designed to be used only with a 9.1 kg (20 lb) propane cylinder, equipped with a Type 1 cylinder valve and incorporating an overfill protection device (O.P.D). This barbeque cannot be connected to an existing #510 P.O.L. type valve (ones with left-hand threads). The cylinder for your gas barbeque must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications of L.P. gas cylinders:

NEW OPD

O.P.D.

a. A shut-off valve terminating in a proper cylinder valve outlet specified in current standards:

Canada: CAN/CGA - 1.6a - M98 - Outdoor Gas Grills - Amend.

U.S.: ANSI Z 21.58a-1998 OUTDOOR COOKING APPLIANCES.

b.A listed overfilling protection device (O.P.D.).

c.A safety relief valve having direct communication with the vapor space of the cylinder.

d.A collar to protect the tank shut off valve.

e.An arrangement for vapor withdrawal.

f.A bottom ring for securing to tank support assembly.

THE CYLINDER SHOULD NOT EXCEED 472 MM (18 1/2") IN HEIGHT AND 317 MM (12 1/2") IN DIAMETER.

SAFETY:

• Always turn off the cylinder valve tightly when your barbeque is not in use.

Handle tank valves with care.

Never connect an unregulated L.P. gas cylinder to your barbeque.

Never store a spare cylinder under or near your barbeque when in use.

Never subject any cylinder to excessive heat or direct sunlight.

Always keep your in-use cylinder securely fastened in an upright position.

In Canada: The National Standards of Canada CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission. In the U.S.: U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)

DO NOT CONNECT TO A PROPANE GAS CYLINDER EXCEEDING THIS CAPACITY, OR USE A CYLINDER WITH ANY OTHER TYPE OF VALVE CONNECTION DEVICE. The Type 1 valve is recognizable by the large external thread on the outlet part of the valve. Standard existing valves do not have these exterior threads.

Do not insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. You may damage

 

the back-check. A damaged back-check can be the source of a leak. Leaking

 

propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury or death.

Never fill the cylinder beyond 80% full.

WARNING

If the above instructions are not followed exactly,

a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
