Connecting the L.P. Gas Cylinder

Connecting the Regulator to Cylinder

1.The top knob on the supply cylinder must be closed. See that the top cylinder knob is turned clockwise to a full stop.

2.Check that all the grill burner knobs are turned off.

3.Remove the protective caps from the cylinder valve and coupling nut, if present.

4.Hold the regulator in one hand and insert the nipple into the valve outlet. Be sure the nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The coupling nut connects to the large outside threads on the valve outlet. Use care not to cross thread the connection.

5.Hand tighten the coupling nut clockwise until it comes to a full stop. Tighten by hand only. Do not use tools.

6.CAUTION: In the connection process, the grill side of the connection will seal on the back check in the valve, resulting in a slight resistance. The connection requires about one-half to three-quarters additional turn to complete the connection.

NOTE: If you cannot complete the final connection, disconnect the regulator and repeat steps 4 through 6. If you are still unable to complete the connection, do not use this valve and regulator.

7.Make sure the hose has no kinks or sharp bends and clears any areas that will become hot during use. Never put strain on the hose where it joins a fitting. The rubber fuel supply hose must not touch the bottom grill casting during use.

8.Before lighting grill, check all connections for leaks using a mild soapy-water solution.

9.Place an aluminum 3-1/2” x 6” loaf pan into the opening in the heat shield located beneath the grill bottom. During use the pan will catch hot grease drippings that could damage the fuel supply system.
