regulator as shown for proper
connection to LP tank valve
7. Turn the coupling nut clockwise to tighten to
a full solid stop. The regulator will seal on the
back-check feature in LP tank valve, resulting
in some resistance. An additional one-half to
three quarters turn is required to complete
connection. Tighten by hand only – do not use
tools.
NOTE: If you cannot complete connection,
disconnect regulator and repeat steps 6 and 7. If
you are still unable to complete the connection, do
not use this regulator!
• Do not insert any foreign objects into the valve
outlet. You may damage the valve and cause a
leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion,
fire, severe personal injury, or death.
• Never attempt to attach this appliance to the
self-contained LP gas system of a camper or
trailer or motor home.
WARNING

3. Slowly open LP tank valve by turning hand
wheel counter clockwise. If you hear a rushing
sound, turn gas off immediately. There is a
major leak at the connection. Correct the leak
before proceeding.
4. Brush 50/50 soap and water solution onto
indicated connections shown.
5. If "growing" bubbles appear, there is a leak.
Close LP tank valve immediately and retighten
connections. If leaks cannot be stopped, do
not try to repair. Call for replacement parts.
Order new parts by giving the serial number,
model number and name of items needed to the
Service Center at 1.800.650.2433.
6. Always close LP tank valve after performing
tank leak test by turning hand wheel clockwise.
WARNING
• Do not use appliance until
leak checked.
• If you cannot stop a gas leak,
immediately close LP tank valve and
call LP gas supplier or your
fire department!
Hose Check
• Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut
or worn. Replace damaged hose assembly before
using appliance. Use only valve/hose/regulator
specified by manufacturer. See product sheet for
hose & regulator information.
Valve Check
Visually inspect the valve to burner assembly to
ensure the orifice is properly located in the burner.
As shown.
Low FLow Mode
This regulator is equipped with a Low-Flow
detection device for your safety.
Troubleshooting
To prevent your regulator and tank from going
into Low-Flow Safety Mode, follow these simple
guidelines:
1. TIGHTEN. Ensure that all control knobs on the
stove and tank are turned OFF. Use a wrench
to connect hose to stove. Connect regulator to
tank. Securely tighten.
2. SLOWLY OPEN. Twist open the knob on your
propane tank slowly. When opened too quickly,
the regulator will enter into Safety Mode, which
greatly reduces heat output and gas flow to
your stove.
Lighting Instructions
Follow the instructions exactly.
1. Check that the burner control knob and the
cylinder valve are turned to the "OFF" position.
2. Turn on the fuel supply by rotating the cylinder
valve knob counter-clockwise to full open.
3. DO NOT stand with head, body, or arms over the
grill when lighting.
Lighting The Main Burner
1. Make sure the control knob is in the "OFF"
position.
2. Push and turn the control knob to the "HIGH"
position.
3. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn
control knob to "OFF", wait 5 minutes to allow
gas to dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.
If burner does not ignite, wait 5 minutes, see
"Match Lighting the Main Burners" section.
4. To turn off, turn the control knob clockwise until
it locks in the "OFF" position. This does not turn
off the gas flow from the cylinder.
Note: If burner does not light or flame is too low,
you may have spider or other insect blockage in
burner. See "Burner Assembly/Maintenance" under
Proper Care and Maintenance. Also refer to Low
Flow section.
Match Lighting The Main Burners
1. Turn the burner control knob to "OFF".
2. Use a long nose lighter and place through
lighting hole in the front of the grill to
approximately 1/2" (1 to 2 cm) from the burner.
3. Turn on the control knob to the "HIGH" position.
The burner should light within 5 seconds.
4. If the burner does not light, turn the control
knob to "OFF" and wait 5 minutes for gas to
dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.
5. If the burner does not light within the first
few attempts of match lighting, there is a
problem with the gas supply. Turn off the gas
at the burner and cylinder. DO NOT attempt to
operate the grill until the problem is found and
corrected. See "Trouble Shooting" section of
this manual.
Turning LP Cooker Off
• Turn knob to OFF position.
• Turn LP tank OFF by turning hand-wheel
clockwise to a full stop.
Burner Flame Check
• Light burner; rotate knob from HIGH to LOW. You
should see a smaller flame in LOW position than
seen on HIGH. Always check flame prior to each
use. The air damper mounted on the front of your
burner helps to control the amount of primary air
that mixes with the LP gas. A blue flame with
little or no yellow flame provides the best heat.
Adjust the air damper by turning it clockwise or
counterclockwise until the desired flame is
