Fill liquid propane cylinder

Note - The liquid propane cylinder manufacturer is responsible for the materials, workmanship and performance of the cylinder. If the cylinder has a defect, malfunctions, or you have a question regarding the cylinder, call the cylinder manufacturer’s customer service center. The phone number is on the warning decal, which is permanently attached to the cylinder. If the cylinder manufacturer has not resolved the issue to your satisfaction, then contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual.

To fill, take the liquid propane cylinder and filler adapter to an RV center or look up gas-propane in the phone book for other sources of liquid propane gas.

WARNING: We recommend that your liquid propane cylinder be filled at an authorized liquid propane gas dealer by a qualified attendant, who fills the tank by weight.

IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.

Tell your liquid propane dealer that this is a new liquid propane cylinder. The air must be removed from a new liquid propane cylinder before the initial filling. Your liquid propane cylinder dealer is equipped to do this. The liquid propane cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright position, and should not be dropped or handled roughly.

Never store or transport the liquid propane cylinder where temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too hot to hold by hand – for example: do not leave the liquid propane cylinder in a car on a hot day).

For full instructions on safe handling of liquid propane cylinders, see Section “Operating”.

Check that all burner valves are off

You will need: burner control knobs.

Valves are shipped in the OFF position, but you should check to be sure that they are turned OFF. Put the knob on each valve. Check by pushing down and turning clockwise. If they do not turn, they are off. Proceed to the next step. If they do turn continue turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are off. Proceed to the next step.

Connect filled liquid propane cylinder WARNING: Make sure that the cylinder valve is

closed. Close by turning clockwise.

We utilize various LP tank manufacturers. Some of the tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is the metal protective ring around the valve.)
