Portable L.P. Gas Barbecue Cylinders L.P. Gas Cylinder Liquefied Petroleum gas (abbreviated L.P. gas or propane), is highly flammable. It becomes liquid when stored under high pressure inside a cylinder and vaporizes when released. L.P. gas is heavier than air and tends to collect in low areas. It is important that there are no leaking connections on your gas grill that could cause a fire or explosion (see the section titled “LEAK TESTING”).
CAUTION Transporting the Cylinder (continued) Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder after filling to ensure that the cylinder is not over filled. WARNING Handle a full cylinder with care. Gas is under high pressure. Hose and Regulator The Type 1 connection system has the following features: 1. The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has been made. NOTE: The cylinder control valve must be turned off before any connection is made or removed. 2.
Filling and Purging Type 1 L.P. Gas Cylinders (continued) Connecting Type 1 L.P. Gas Cylinders WARNING Fig. 17 CGA-510 POL This procedure MUST be performed OUTDOORS only! Be sure the L.P. cylinder valve is closed. Attach to the grill. Read and follow the directions on the cylinder and fuel hose safety tags. CAUTION In the connection process, the grill side of the connection will seal on the back-check in the valve, resulting in a slight resistance.
Leak Testing Fixing A Fuel Leak DANGER TO PREVENT FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD: • NO SMOKING. DO NOT use or permit sources of ignition in the area while doing a leak test. • Perform leak tests outdoors only. • NEVER perform a leak test with fire or flame. How to Check for Leaks 1. Make a soapy solution of equal parts mild liquid dishwashing detergent and water. 2. Turn off all burner control knobs. 3. Turn on the fuel supply. Turn the cylinder valve knob counterclockwise (right to left) one rotation. 4.
