L.P. GAS INSTALLATION
Cascade™Gas Grills that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly.
(Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill or a replacement pressure
regulator and hose assemblies specified by Cascade™). This assembly is designed to connect directly to a standard
20 lb. L.P. cylinder. L.P. Cylinders are not included with the grill. L.P. Cylinders can be purchased separately at an
independent dealer.
L.P. TANK INFORMATION
Never use a dented or rusted L.P. tank or cylinder with a damaged valve.
L.P. cylinders are equipped with an O.P.D (Overfilling Prevention Device). The device shuts off the flow of gas to a cylin-
der after 80% capacity is reached. This limits the potential for release of gas when the cylinder is heated, averting a fire
or possible injury.
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in an L.P. gas supply cylinder outlet
specified, as applicable, for connection No. 510 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet con-
nection ANSI/CGA-V-1. Cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. (The L.P. cylin-
der must have an overfill protection device, OPD, and a collar to protect the cylinder valve.)
The L.P. gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for L.P. gas cylinders
of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CAS-B339, “ Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission.
”
L.P. TANK USE
• When turning the L.P. tank on, make sure to open the valve SLOWLY two (2) complete turns to insure proper gas flow.
Most gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank, when gas is allowed to escape
rapidly it shuts off the gas supply. Opening the valve rapidly may simulate a gas leak, causing the safety device to
activate, restricting gas flow causing low flames. Opening the valve slowly will insure this safety feature is not falsely
triggered.
• When not in use, gas supply cylinder valve is to be in the “ OFF” position.
• The tank supply system must be stored upright to allow for vapor withdrawal.
• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected before each use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or
wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being used again.
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children
and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other
enclosed area.
• Only a qualified gas supplier should refill the L.P. tank.
• Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder
is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the sylinder
valve outlet theat is provided with the cylinder valve. Other
types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.

Do not store a spare L.P. gas cylinder under or near
