VM508K / VM658K Assembly

Step 24: Install the LP Cylinder

(LP Models ONLY)

Parts Required:

(1)LP Gas Cylinder (not included) Figures 25 & 26

NOTE: Check your User’s Manual for the cylinder filling requirements, how to attach the regulator and how to test for leaks before you try lighting the grill.

CAUTION: Make sure the hose is not touching any hot or sharp surfaces.

Place the LP Cylinder into the hole in the bottom panel. Next secure it from moving by lifting the cylinder retainer wire and latching the bent edge over the lip of the cylinder. The final step is to connect the regula- tor to the cylinder.

CAUTION: Do not turn on/ignite the grill until after performing a leak check at all gas connection points and fittings. With the main LP cylinder valve OPEN, and ALL CONTROL KNOBS FULLY OFF, use a spray solu- tion of 50% liquid soap and 50% water onto all gas connection points and fittings. The formation of bubbles indicates an air leak that must be repaired and verified with this leak test before the grill is ignited.

NOTE: Ensure all plastic coatings have been removed from all stainless steel parts before using the grill.
