Gas & LP Tank Connections LP Gas Cylinder Requirements: (The LP-Gas Cylinder is not supplied with your MHP Grill.) The LP cylinder should be equipped with an OPD (Overflow Prevention Device) and a QCC! Or Type 1 (CGA810) cylinder connection. This cylinder connection is compatible with the grill connection. OPD is an internal mechanical device that limits the amount of liquid propane and prevents overfilling the LP cylinder.
CONNECTING THE LP CYLINDER (Fig. 19 ) Install the gas cylinder in the back of your grill, with the open side of the tank valve collar pointing towards the square hole in the tank enclosure. Ensure that all hoses, fittings and regulators are properly protected from heat and accidental damage. Hoses can be burned or chaffed if routed improperly. (See Hose and Regulator, page 3). Be sure all burner control valves on the grill are turned “OFF”.
