18. Connecting LP Gas Tank to LP Grill

1.From rear of the Cart, place the foot ring of 20-1b tank into the hole of the Bottom Panel (J). Make sure the tank valve is in OFF position. Use the tank bolt to secure the tank in a fixed position with tank valve facing out to side of Cart.

2.Check the tank valve to ensure it has proper external mating threads to fit the hose and regulator assembly provided.

3.Make sure all grill burner valves are in OFF position with Grill.

4.Inspect the tank valve connection port and grill regulator assembly. Look for damage or debris. Remove any debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never use damaged or plugged equipment.

5.When connecting regulator and hose assembly to tank valve hand tighten quick coupling nut clockwise to a full stop (Fig.27) Do not use a wrench to tighten

because it could damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous condition.

6. Open tank valve fully (counterclockwise) once tank

and regulator are securely connected. Use a soapy water solution to check all connections for leaks

before attempting to light your grill once tank and regulator are securely connected. If a leak is found, turn tank valve off and do not use your grill until the leak is repaired.

CAUTION: When the appliance is not in use, gas must be turned off at the supply tank.
