LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER REQUIREMENTS
(20-lb Cylinder)
A dented or rusty Liquid Propane cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your supplier. Never use
a cylinder with a damaged valve. The Liquid Propane cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance
with the specications for Liquid Propane cylinders by the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) or
the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous
Goods Commission.
The 20-lb cylinder must have a shut off valve terminating in a valve outlet specied, as applicable, for connection
type QCC1 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection ANSI/CGA-V-1.
Storage of an outdoor cooking gas appliance indoor is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and
removed from the outdoor cooking gas appliance. The cylinder system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
The cylinder must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
Manifold pressure: (operating) 11 inches water column (W.C.), (non-operating) 11.2 inches water column (W.C.).
The Liquid Propane cylinder must be tted with an Overll Protection Device (OPD).
Remove the plastic valve cover from the Liquid Propane cylinder. Make sure the grill gas hoses do not contact the
grease pan or grill rebox when the Liquid Propane cylinder is placed into the cart.
CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
• To connect the Liquid Propane gas supply cylinder:
• The cylinder valve should be in the “OFF” position. If not, turn the valve clockwise
until it stops.
• Make sure the cylinder valve has the proper type-1 external male thread connections
per ANSI Z21.81.
• Make sure the burner valves are in the “OFF” position.
• Inspect the valve connections, port and regulator assembly. Remove debris and
inspect the hose for
damage.
• When connecting the regulator assembly to the valve, use your hand to tighten the nut clockwise until it stops.
Use of a wrench could damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous situation
• Open the cylinder valve fully by turning the valve counterclockwise.
• Before lighting the grill, use a soap and water solution to check all the connections for leaks.
• 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.
Note: Do not over extend the hose to reach the propane tank. The hose
should have some slack in it to ensure it does not tip.
