Portable L.P. Gas Barbecue Cylinders
WARNING
A liquid propane tank, not connected for use with this gas barbecue,
shall not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Liquefied Petroleum gas (abbreviated L.P. gas or propane), is
highly flammable. It becomes liquid when stored under high pres-
sure inside a cylinder and vaporizes when released. L.P. gas is
heavier than air and tends to collect in low areas. It is important
that there are no leaking connections on your gas grill that could
cause a fire or explosion (see "LEAK TESTING", Pg. 8).
Portable LP gas grills require a fuel delivery system which is
comprised of a valve [A], a hose [B], a regulator [C] with vent
holes [G], an L.P. gas supply cylinder [D], a Type 1 coupling nut [E]
and a Type 1 cylinder valve [F]. (Fig. 10). Illustration in Fig. 10 is
for description purposes only. The valve assembly for this grill is of
a different configuration.
Protect regulator assembly vent holes [G] from freezing rain,
rain, snow and water. See Fig. 10 for vent locations.
WARNING
Your new barbecue grill is equipped with a Type 1 coupling nut
[E]. DO NOT attempt to connect to any other L.P. cylinder not
equipped with a mating Type 1 cylinder valve [F]. This grill is
not to be used with any other cylinder connection device.

L.P. Gas Cylinder
• DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet.
You may damage the valve. A damaged valve can cause
a leak, which could result in explosion, fire, severe per-
sonal injury or death.
• If the grill is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the
supply cylinder(s).
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of
children and must not be stored in a building, garage or
any other enclosed area. (Fig. 11)
Cylinder Specifications
• Any L.P. gas supply cylinder used with this grill must be
approximately 12 inches diameter and 18 inches high. The
maximum fuel capacity is 80% and is approximately 20 pounds
of propane.
• The maximum weight of a properly filled cylinder will be
approximately 38 pounds (47.7 lbs. nominal water capacity).
• The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in a
Type 1 L.P. gas cylinder valve outlet (see item [F], Fig. 10,
pg. 4).
