coupling nut counterclockwise by hand only - do not use 
tools to disconnect. Loosen cylinder screw beneath 
bottom shelf or disconnect other retention means, then lift 
LP cylinder up and and out of cart. Install safety cap onto

spaces such as a carport, garage, porch, covered patio 
or other building. Never leave an LP cylinder inside a 
vehicle which may become overheated by the sun.

•Do not store an LP cylinder in an area where children play.

•LP gas is nontoxic, odorless and colorless when 
produced. For Your Safety, LP gas has been given an 
odor (similar to rotten cabbage) so that it can be smelled. 

•LP gas is highly flammable and may ignite unexpectedly 
when mixed with air.

•Use only licensed and experienced dealers.
•LP dealer must purge new cylinder before filling.

•Dealer should NEVER fill LP cylinder more than 80% of 

LP cylinder volume. Volume of propane in cylinder will 
vary by temperature.

•A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately close 

LP cylinder valve and call local LP gas dealer for 
assistance.

•Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas into the 

atmosphere. This is a hazardous practice.

•To remove gas from LP cylinder, contact an LP dealer or 

call a local fire department for assistance. Check the 
telephone directory under “Gas Companies” for nearest 
certified LP dealers.

•Use LP cylinders only with these required 

measurements: 12" (30.5cm) (diameter) x 18" (45.7 
cm) (tall) with 20 lb. (9 kg.) capacity maximum.

•LP cylinders must be constructed and marked in 

accordance with specifications for LP cylinders of the 
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or for Canada, 
CAN/CSA-B339, cylinders, spheres and tubes for 
transportation of dangerous goods, Transport Canada 
(TC). See LP cylinder collar for marking.

•LP cylinder valve must have:

•Type 1 outlet compatible with 

regulator or grill.

•Safety relief valve.

•UL listed Overfill Protection Device (OPD). This OPD 

safety feature is identified by a unique triangular hand 
wheel. Use only LP cylinders equipped with this 
type of valve.

•LP cylinder must be arranged for vapor withdrawal 

and include collar to protect LP cylinder valve. 
Always keep LP cylinders in upright position 
during use, transit or storage.

•Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of 

replacing your empty LP cylinder through an exchange 
service. Use only those reputable exchange companies 
that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their cylinders.  
Exchange your cylinder only for an OPD safety 
feature-equipped cylinder as described in the "LP 
Cylinder" section of this manual.

•Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright 

position during use, transit or storage.

•Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BEFORE 

•Place safety cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the 

cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of safety cap 
on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the 
cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in 
leakage of propane.

•Leak test must be repeated each time LP cylinder is 

exchanged or refilled.

•Do not smoke during leak test.
•Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
•Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated 

area, away from ignition sources such as gas fired or 
electrical appliances. During leak test, keep grill away 
from open flames or sparks.

•Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and water 

solution. Brush soapy solution onto areas indicated by 
arrows in figure below.

▲ Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to 

gas train components can result.

WARNING

If “growing” bubbles appear do not use or move the LP 
cylinder. Contact an LP gas supplier or your fire 
department!

1.LP cylinder must be properly secured onto grill. (Refer 

to assembly section.)

2.Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.

3.Turn LP cylinder OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise 

to a full stop.

4.Remove the safety cap from LP cylinder valve. Always 

use cap and strap supplied with valve.

5.Hold regulator and insert nipple into 

LP cylinder valve. Hand-tighten the 
coupling nut, holding regulator in a 
straight line with LP cylinder valve 
so as not to cross-thread the 
connection.

6.Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to a full stop. 

The regulator will seal on the back-check feature in the 
LP cylinder valve, resulting in some resistance. An 
additional one-half to three-quarters turn is required 
to complete the connection. Tighten by hand only – 
do not use tools.

NOTE:
If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect 
regulator and repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still unable 
to complete the connection, do not use this regulator!

DANGER

• Do not insert any tool or foreign object into the valve 

outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the 
valve and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result 
in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
