Hook Up And Tank Requirements - ProFire PERF30R Owner's Manual

L.P. GAS CONNECTION AND TANK
A dented or rusty L.P. tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your L.P. sup-
plier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. The L.P. cylinder must be constructed
and marked in accordance with the specifications for L.P. gas cylinders of the U.S. De-
partment of Transportation (DOT). This appliance is approved with a combination L.P.
gas/propane cylinder valve and QCC1 fitting, the gas must be turned off at the supply cyl-
inder when the unit is not in use.
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.
The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and must include a
collar to protect the cylinder valve. Disconnected cylinders must not be stored in a build-
ing, garage, or any other enclosed area. The grill is designed to operate on Propane gas
regulated at a gas pressure of 10" water column (W.C.) (2.7kPa). A regulator adjusted to
this pressure must be installed in the gas supply line before the grill is connected to the
propane source. ProFire LP Gas grills use a QCC1 gas connection fitting. This safety
system is utilized to ensure your safety. Check with your LP gas utility or dealer for a
tank that will accommodate a QCC1 fitting. Your gas grill utilizes ONLY the QCC1 fitting.
Any other could affect the performance of you grill. Use only the type regulator and hose
specified by ProFire.
L.P. cylinders must never be connected directly below the grill without proper ventilation.
Never enclose L.P. cylinders in any enclosure that can trap any leaking gas. Only 20 lb.
cylinders should be used with your ProFire grill.
Connect the "QCC1 regulator to the tank by placing the black plastic fitting on to the
threaded valve of the tank and tighten clockwise. Be sure to tighten snugly but do not
over tighten or use a wrench or other tool to tighten. To remove regulator, close the
valve on the tank, turn the black plastic fitting counterclockwise.
Do not turn gas valve on unless connection
between regulator and tank is complete. Be-
fore attempting to light grill, be certain the
gas valve knobs are in the "OFF" position,
turn tank on by turning knob on top of the
tank counterclockwise, Check all connections
for leaks by spraying a solution of 50% liquid
soap and 50% water. If bubbles appear there
is a leak, turn off gas and have a certified gas
installer repair the leak.
