Portable L.P. Gas Barbecue Cylinders

Liquefied Petroleum gas (abbreviated L.P. gas or propane), is highly flammable. It becomes liquid when stored under high pressure inside a cylinder and vaporizes when released. L.P. gas is heavier than air and tends to collect in low areas. It is important that there are no leaking connections on your gas grill that could cause a fire or explosion (see the section titled “LEAK TESTING”).

Portable LP gas grills require a fuel delivery system which is comprised of a valve [A], a hose [B], a regulator [C] with vent hole [G], an L.P. gas supply cylinder [D], a Type 1 coupling nut [E] and a Type 1 cylinder valve [F], (Fig. 1).

WARNING

Your new barbecue grill is equipped with a Type 1 coupling nut [E]. DO NOT attempt to connect to any other refillable L.P. cylinder not equipped with a mating Type 1 cylinder valve [F]. This grill may only be used with cylinder connecting devices approved by Coleman.

DANGER

DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. You may damage the valve. A damaged valve can cause a leak, which could result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury or death.

WARNING

Refillable cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area (Fig. 2).

Cylinder Specifications

Any refillable L.P. gas supply cylinder used with this grill must be approximately 12 inches diameter and 18 inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 80% and is approximately 20 pounds of propane.

The maximum weight of a properly filled cylinder will be approximately 38 pounds (47.7 lbs. nominal water capacity).

The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in a Type 1 L.P. gas cylinder valve outlet (see item [F], Fig. 1).

Fig. 2

A Type 1 compatible cylinder with a Type 1 cylinder valve has a back- check valve which does not permit gas flow, until a positive seal has been obtained.

The cylinder must be arranged in an upright position for vapor withdrawal. It must also include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. A safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor space of cylinder must be provided. This will expel high pressure gas if the cylinder is over filled or overheated which could result in fire or explosion.

All refillable L.P. gas cylinders used with this appliance shall be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for L.P. Gas Cylinders of the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable; and shall be provided with a listed overfilling prevention device, and a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.

Read labels on the L.P. Gas Supply Cylinder.

New refillable cylinders are always shipped empty for safety.

Allow only qualified L.P. gas dealers to fill or repair your refillable L.P. gas supply cylinder.

Inform the gas dealer if it is a new or used cylinder to be filled.

Caution the gas dealer not to overfill the cylinder.

After filling, have the gas dealer check for leaks and to see that the relief valve remains free to function.

CAUTION

Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder after filling to ensure that the cylinder is not over filled.
