GAS INSTRUCTIONS
REFILLING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
We recommend that you refi ll the LP cylinder before it is completely empty.
Removal of the LP cylinder
1) Close cylinder valve (turn clockwise).
2) Unscrew regulator coupling by turning counterclockwise, by hand only.
3) Loosen cylinder lock wing nut and turn cylinder lock up out of the way.
4) Lift cylinder off.
To refi ll, take LP cylinder to a “Gas Propane” dealer.
WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be
fi lled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualifi ed
attendant, who fi lls the cylinder by weight. IMPROPER
FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
CAUTION: When transporting the LP cylinder make
sure the plastic dust cover is in place over the valve.
This will keep dust and dirt from the threaded portion
of the valve.
CHECKING THE FUEL LEVEL IN YOUR TANK
Check the fuel level by viewing the color indicator level line on the side of the
tank scale.

SAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LIQUID PROPANE GAS
CYLINDERS
• Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as are gasoline and
natural gas. LP gas is a gas at regular temperatures and pressures.
Under moderate pressure, inside a cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the
pressure is released, the liquid readily vaporizes and becomes gas.
• LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You should be aware of this
odor.
• LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect in low areas and
prevent dispersion.
• To fi ll, take the LP cylinder to an RV center, or look up “gas-propane” in
the phone book for other sources of LP gas.
WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be
fi lled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualifi ed
attendant, who fi lls the tank by weight. IMPROPER
FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
• Air must be removed from a new LP cylinder before the initial fi lling. Your
LP dealer is equipped to do this.
• The LP cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright
position. LP cylinders should not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Never store or transport the LP cylinder where temperatures can reach
125° F (too hot to hold by hand - for example: do not leave the LP
cylinder in a car on a hot day).
Note - A refi ll will last about 20 hours of cooking time at normal use. The fuel
scale will indicate the propane supply so you can refi ll before running out.
You do not have to run out before you refi ll.
