CORRECT
LP GAS TANK USE
• LP gas grill models are designed
for use with a
standard
20lb. (9.1kg)
Liquid Propane
Gas (LP Gas)
tank, which is not included
with the grill. Never connect
your gas grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds this
capacity.
A tank of approximately
12" (305mm)
in
diameter
by 18-1/2"
(472mm)
high is the maximum
size LP gas tank to use. You must
use an "OPD" gas
tank which offers
a listed Overfill
Prevention
Device.
This safety feature
prevents
tanks from being
overfilled
which can cause malfunction
of the LP gas
tank,
regulator
and grill.
• The LP gas tank must be constructed
and marked
in accordance
with the Specifications
for LP-Gas
Cylinders
of the U.S. Department
of Transportation
(D.O.T.)
or the National
Standard
of Canada,
CAN/CSA-B339,
Cylinders,
Spheres
and Tubes for
Transportation
of Dangerous
Goods;
and
Commission,
as applicable.
• The LP gas tank must have a shut off valve
terminating
in a LP gas supply tank valve outlet
that
is compatible
with a Type 1 tank connection
device.
The LP gas tank must also have a safety
relief device
that has a direct
connection
with the vapor
space of
the tank.
• The tank supply
system
must have a means for
vapor withdrawal.
• The LP gas tank used must have a collar to protect
the tank valve.
• Never
connect
an unregulated
LP gas tank to your
gas grill. The gas regulator
assembly
supplied
with
your gas grill is adjusted
to have an outlet
pressure
of
11"water
column
(W.C.) for connection
to an LP gas
tank.
Only use the regulator
and hose assembly
supplied
with your gas grill. Replacement
regulators
and hose assemblies
must
be those
specified
by
Sears.
See the Parts List.
Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve
after every filling
to ensure
it remains
free of
defects.
Always
keep the LP gas tank in an upright
position.
Do not subject
the LP gas tank to
excessive
heat.
• Never
store an LP gas tank indoors.
If you store
your gas grill indoors, always
disconnect the LP gas tank
first and store it safely outside.
• LP gas tanks must be stored
outdoors
in a
well-ventilated
area and out of the reach of
children.
• Disconnected
LP gas tanks
must not be stored
in a
building,
garage,
or any other
enclosed
area.
• The regulator
and hose assembly
can be seen after
opening
the door and must be inspected
before each
use of the grill. Tf there is excessive
abrasion
or wear or
if the hose is cut, it must be replaced
prior to using the
grill again.
• Never
light your gas grill with the lid closed or
before checking
to ensure
the burner tubes
are fully
seated over the gas valve orifices.

allow children
to operate
your grill. Do not
allow children
or pets to play near your grill.

or drugs may impair
the ability
to assemble
and operate
the appliance.

readily
accessible.
Tn
the event
of an oil or grease fire, do not attempt
to extinguish
with water. Use a Type B extinguisher
or
smother
with dirt, sand,
or baking
soda.
• In the event
of rain, cover the grill and turn off
the burner
and gas supply.

and ensure
the locking casters
are locked before
use.
