GENERAL WARNINGS: WARNING • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • 3 Leak test all connections before first use, even if grill was purchased fully assembled and after each tank refill. Check the propane tank rubber seal for damage. Always check the grill and propane tank prior to each use as indicated in the “Checking for Leaks” & “Pre-Start Check List” sections of this manual. Never use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas.
• Grill is hot when in use. To avoid burns: • • • • • • DO NOT attempt to move the grill. Block the wheels so the unit does not accidentally move. Wear protective gloves or oven mitts. DO NOT touch any hot grill surfaces. DO NOT wear loose clothing or allow hair to come in contact with grill. Not for commercial use. DO NOT use this grill for anything other than its intended purpose. USE CAUTION AND COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING YOUR GAS GRILL.
LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) SPECIFICATIONS: LP gas cylinder (not supplied with this grill) The LP (Liquid Propane) gas cylinder specifically designed to be used with this grill must be 12” (30.5 cm) diameter x 18” (45.7 cm) tall and have a 20 lb. (9.1 kg) capacity incorporating a Type 1 cylinder valve and an over-filling protection device (OPD). This grill is designed to fit Worthington, Manchester or SMPC brand 20 lb. (9.1 kg) cylinders.
LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) RUBBER SEAL INSPECTION: • Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for cracks, wear or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber seal can cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire or severe bodily harm. • Inspection should be done each time the propane tank is connected to the grill, has been refilled, exchanged or has not been used for more than 60 days. • Do not use a propane tank with a damaged rubber seal.
HOSE AND REGULATOR: Your grill is equipped with a Type 1 connection device with the following features: 1. The system will not allow gas flow from the cylinder until a positive connection to the valve has been made. Note: The cylinder valve and all grill burner knobs must be turned OFF before any connection is made or removed. 2. A regulator flow limiting device, when activated, restricts the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
DANGER To prevent fire or explosion hazard: • DO NOT smoke or permit ignition sources in the area while conducting a leak test. • Perform test OUTDOORS in a well ventilated area that is protected from the wind. • Never perform a leak test with a match or open flame. • Never perform a leak test while the grill is in use or while grill is still hot. WHEN TO PERFORM A LEAK TEST: • • • • After assembling your grill and before lighting for the first time, even if purchased fully assembled.
PRE-START CHECK LIST: DANGER Property damage, bodily harm, severe burns, and death could result from failure to follow these safety steps. These steps should be performed after the grill has been assembled and prior to each use. DO NOT operate this grill until you have read and understand ALL of the warnings and instructions in this manual. • Ensure that the grill is properly assembled. • Inspect the gas supply hose for burns, chaffing, kinks, and proper routing before each use.
5. To light other burners, follow steps 3-4. 6. If burner does not ignite using the igniter, see “Match Lighting the Main Burners” section. 7. To turn off, turn each control knob clockwise until it locks in the “OFF” position. This does not turn off the gas flow from the cylinder. Note: If burner does not light or flame is too low, See “Trouble Shooting” section of the owners manual. MATCH LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNER: 1. Open lid before lighting burner. 2.
OPERATING THE GRILL: WARNING • • • • • • • Read and follow all warnings and instructions contained in the preceding sections of this manual. Flavoring chips must be contained in a metal smoking box to contain ash and prevent fires. DO NOT cover cooking grates or other components with aluminum foil, as this blocks ventilation and damage to grill or personal injury may occur. DO NOT leave your grill unattended while “ON” or in use. DO NOT move grill when in use. DO NOT use water on a grease fire.
ROTISSERIE COOKING: • • Your grill was pre-drilled from the factory to include mounting holes for a rotisserie (sold separately). Read and follow all instructions provided with the rotisserie. Save instructions for future reference. WARNING • When using an AC current rotisserie, it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes: • In the US: The National Electrical Code – ANSI-NFPA No.
PROPER CARE & MAINTENANCE: WARNING: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on the cooking surfaces prior to grilling as loose bristles may attach to food. CLEANING INTERIOR OF GRILL: • We recommend cleaning off food residue immediately after cooking by gently scrubbing grates with wire bristle brush and then turning burners to HIGH for approximately 5 minutes.
BURNER ASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE: • Although your burners are constructed of stainless steel, they may corrode as a result of the extreme heat and acids from cooking foods. Regularly inspect the burners for cracks, abnormal holes, and other signs of corrosion damage. If found, replace the burner. • DO NOT block ventilation areas in back of lid, sides, back or cart compartment of grill.
TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE: WARNING • • • • • • • • Never move a grill when hot or in use. Make sure that cylinder valve is closed and burner knobs are in the off position. DO NOT store a spare LP gas cylinder (filled or empty) under or near the grill. Never store flammable liquids or spray canisters under or near the grill. If the outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the LP gas supply cylinder.
