INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
To connect the liquid propane gas supply cylinder:
1. The cylinder valve should be in the "OFF" position. If not, turn the valve clockwise until it stops.
2. Make sure the cylinder valve has the proper type-1 external male thread connections per ANSI
Z21.81.
3. Make sure the burner valves are in the "OFF" position.
4. Inspect the valve connections, port and regulator assembly. Remove debris and inspect the hose
for damage.
5. When connecting the regulator assembly to the valve, use your hand to tighten the nut clockwise
until it stops.
6. Use of a wrench could damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous situation.
7. Open the cylinder valve fully by turning the valve counterclockwise.
8. Before lighting the grill, use a soap and water solution to check all the connections for leaks.
9. If a leak is found, turn the cylinder valve "OFF" and DO NOT use the grill until a local liquid
propane dealer can make repairs.
WARNING
NEVER attempt to use damaged or obstructed equipment. See your local liquid propane dealer for
repair.
DISCONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER

2. T urn the liquid propane cylinder valve "OFF" by turning clockwise until it stops.
3. D etach the regulator assembly from the cylinder valve by turning the quick coupling nut

LEAK TESTING

Although gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete leak test must
be performed at the installation site. Before each use, check all gas connections for leaks using the
procedures listed below. If the smell of gas is detected at any time, you should immediately check the
entire system for leaks.

BEFORE TESTING

Make sure all packing materials have been removed from the grill, including the burner tie-down
straps.
