LP TANK REQUIREMENTS:
A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be
checked by your LP supplier. Never use a cylinder with a
damaged valve. Always check for leaks after every LP tank
change. The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked
in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of
the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and designed
for use with a Type 1 system only. Do not change the
regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with the unit or
attempt to use a Type 1 equipped regulator/hose assembly
with a standard 510 POL tank/valve assembly. The cylinder
must be provided with a shut off valve terminating in an LP gas
supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as applicable, for
connection Type 1. If the appliance is stored indoors, the
cylinder must be disconnected and removed from the
appliance. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated area out of the reach of children.
NOTE:
When an LP unit is directly attached into an LP house
system, the step down regulator MUST be used to reduce
the supply pressure to a max. 14" W.C. and min. 11" W.C.
to the grill regulator.
