LP Cylinder Exchange
Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option
of replacing your empty LP cylinder through an ex-
change service. Use only those reputable exchange
companies that inspect, precision fill, test and cer-
tify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only for
an OPD safety feature-equipped cylinder as de-
scribed in the "LP Cylinder" section of this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in
upright position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BE-
FORE connecting to grill.
• Place safety cap on cylinder valve outlet whenev-
er the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type
of safety cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is
provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of
caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane
LP Cylinder Leak Test
For your safety.
Leak test must be repeated each time LP cylinder
is exchanged or refilled.
• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
• Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ven-
tilated area, away from ignition sources such as
gas fired or electrical appliances. During leak
test, keep grill away from open flames or sparks.
• Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap
and water solution. Brush soapy solution onto
areas indicated by arrows in figure below.
• Do not use household cleaning agents Damage
to gas traincomponents can result.

If "growing" bubbles appear, do not use or move

fire department!
Connecting Regulator to the LP Cylinder
1. LP cylinder must be properly secured onto grill.
(Refer to assembly section.)
2. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
3. Turn LP cylinder OFF by turning hand-wheel
clockwise to a full stop.
4. Remove the safety cap from LP cylinder valve.
Always use cap and strap if supplied with valve
5. Hold regulator and insert nipple into LP cylinder
valve. Hand-tighten the coupling nut, holding
regulator in a straight line with LP cylinder
valve so as not to cross-thread the connection.
6. Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to
a full stop. The regulator will seal on the back-
check feature in the LP cylinder valve, resulting
in some resistance. An additional one-half to
three-quarters turn is required to complete
the connection. Tighten by hand only – do
not use tools.
NOTE:
If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect
regulator and repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still
unable to complete the connection, do not use this
regulator!
