Hose and Regulator, Transporting the Cylinder

L.P. Gas Cylinder cont.

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

•The cylinder must be arranged 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 overfilled or overheated which could result in fire or explosion.

•All L.P. gas cylinders used with this appliance shall be con- structed 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.

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

•New cylinders are always shipped empty for safety.

•Allow only qualified L.P. gas dealers to fill or repair your 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 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 cylinder after filling to ensure that the cylinder is not overfilled.

Hose and Regulator

The Type 1 connection system has the following features:

1.The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has been made.

NOTE: The cylinder control valve must be turned off before any connection is made or removed.

2.The system has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas in the event of a fire.

3.The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will limit the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.

4.NEVER use grill without leak testing this connection.

WARNING

•DO NOT attempt to adjust the regulator as this could create a situation causing personal injury or property damage.

The pressure regulator and hose assembly with the Type 1 fitting supplied with the appliance must be used. Do not use another hose and regulator assembly other than the one supplied with the grill or a Coleman replacement pressure regulator assembly. The pressure regulator and hose assembly provided is factory set at an outlet pressure of 11 inches water column (1/2 psi).

•Keep the small vent hole in the regulator clean of dirt and debris (see item [G], Fig. 10, pg. 4).

•Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you think the regulator is not working properly.

WARNING

During assembly of grill and when attaching or replacing the L.P. gas cylinder, insure that the gas supply hose is free of kinks and/or damage and is at least 3" away from hot sur- faces such as the grill housing.

Transporting the Cylinder

•Transport only one cylinder at a time.

•Transport cylinder in an upright and secure manner with a control valve turned off and the cap in place.

•DO NOT transport cylinder in passenger compartment, unless you have an open window ventilation.

•DO NOT leave cylinder in direct sunlight or in a high heat area such as a closed car trunk. High heat areas could cause the relief valve to vent gas.

•Use a cylinder cap on cylinder valve outlet during transport and when the cylinder is not connected to grill.

•Keep cylinder valve closed when not in use.

•Take the cylinder directly home after it has been filled.
