Necessary Information to
2. Installation must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with ei-
ther the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1, NFPA 54 (USA), or CAN/CGA-B
149.2 Propane Installation Code (Canada)
and CAN/CGA-B 149.1 Natural Gas Instal-
lation Code.
Safely Use a Gas Grill
To check local codes, contact your local
gas dealer or gas company listed in the
Yellow Pages for recommended installa-
tion procedures and regulations.
3. This appliance is not intended to be in-
stalled in or on a recreational vehicle and/
or boat.
4. Keep the barbecue grill at least 24 inches
(61 cm) away from any combustible con-
struction.
•
Do not use a grill under a ceiling or cover
where the heat or flame could cause dam-
age.
•
•
Choose a level surface where the grill is
not facing directly into the wind.
Avoid moving the grill during use.
5. The grill area must be clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and any
other flammable liquids or vapors.
Choosing a Safe Location
for a Gas Barbecue Grill
•
Do not use lighter fluid or charcoal bri-
quettes in a gas grill. The flow of combus-
tion and ventilation air is not to be ob-
structed. The ventilation openings of the
cylinder enclosure must be kept free and
clear from other debris. Do not store grill
covers or other items in the cylinder area.
1. The gas barbecue grill may only be used
for cooking out-of-doors.
•
Do not operate this barbecue in garages,
breeze ways, sheds or any enclosed area.
Operating this or any gas-fired appliance
in an enclosed area can produce a build-
up of carbon monoxide, which could result
in injury or death.
•

10. Make sure that the drip pan is in place
under the grill bottom.
•
Hot drippings from cooking food could
damage the fuel supply system.
IMPORTANT: NEVER leave a grill unat-
tended when in use.
Portable L.P. Gas
Barbecue Grills
WARNING: Do not use natural gas in an
appliance designed for L.P. gas. Use only
liquid propane (L.P.) gas in an appliance de-
signed for L.P. gas.
6. Do Not store a spare L.P. gas cylinder
under or near this appliance.
L.P. Gas
Liquid Propane (abbreviated L.P.) gas is
stored under high pressure inside a cylinder
and will vaporize when released. It is impor-
tant that there are no leaky connections on
the grill fuel supply system. Refer to the
Leak Testing section of this manual.
Do not store an L.P. cylinder in a building,
garage or any other enclosed area. In-
stead, store the cylinder outdoors in a
well ventilated area, away from people
and out of the reach of children.
7. NOT FOR USE BY CHILDREN
• Place your barbecue grill in a location
away from children and pets.
The L.P. Fuel Supply System
An L.P. gas grill requires a fuel delivery sys-
tem made up of a L.P. gas cylinder, a fuel
regulator with hose and a gas-control valve.
• Do not leave grill unattended when in use.
8. The outside of the barbecue grill will be-
come hot during use.
• To avoid burns, do not touch any hot grill
surface. If necessary, use a protective
glove when operating control knobs, tank
shut-off valve or lid handle.
• Do not place combustible material, such
as cloth or plastic, on grill surface during
use.
• Do not lean on side tables or place more
than 15 pounds of weight on a side table.
9. The warming drawer is only to be used for
keeping food warm.
• Do not place any flammable material in
the warming drawer.

4. The pressure regulator and hose assem-
bly provided is factory set at an outlet
pressure of 11 inches water column (.4 lb.
per sq. Inch).
WARNING: Any attempt to adjust the regu-
lator is dangerous and could create a situa-
tion causing personal injury or property dam-
age. Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you think
the regulator is not working properly.
L.P. GAS SUPPLY CYLINDER
L.P. Cylinders can be obtained at the store
where you purchased your grill or from an
authorized L.P. gas dealer.
FUEL REGULATOR AND HOSE
The fuel regulator supplied is equipped with a
Type 1 coupling nut. Do not attempt to con-
nect to any other L.P. cylinder not equipped
with a mating Type 1 cylinder valve. This grill
is not to be used with any other cylinder con-
nection device.
The fuel regulator and hose assembly with the
Type 1 fitting supplied must be used with the
appliance. Do not use a hose and regulator
assembly other than the one supplied with the
grill or a manufacturer’s replacement fuel
pressure regulator assembly.
The Type 1 connection system has the follow-
ing features:
1. The system will not allow gas to flow until
a positive connection has been made.
L.P. GAS CYLINDER SPECIFICATIONS
Any L.P. gas-supply cylinder used with this
grill must be approximately 12 inches
diameter and 18 inches high. The maximum
fuel capacity must be 20 pounds of propane.
Full-cylinder weight should be approximately
38 pounds (43.7 lbs. Nominal water
capacity).
2. The system has a thermal element that will
shut off the flow of gas between 240°F and
300°F.
3. The system has a flow-limiting device
which, when activated, will limit the flow of
gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.

that will not permit gas to flow until an
evacuation device is installed. To purge the
L.P. gas cylinder, the back-check module
must be opened with an evacuation device.
When using a cylinder exchange, be sure the
exchanged cylinder is a Type 1 cylinder: a
510 POL cylinder will not fit a Type 1 regula-
tor.
FILLING AND PURGING
TYPE 1 L.P. GAS CYLINDERS
PURGING AND EVACUATION DEVICES
FOR L.P. GAS CYLINDER WITH TYPE 1
CYLINDER VALVES
DANGER: Purging and filling of L.P. gas cyl-
inders must be performed by personnel who
have been thoroughly trained in accepted
L.P. gas industry procedures. Failure to follow
this instruction may result in explosion, fire,
severe personal injury or death.
A. Hose-end valve with a bleed port: Purg-
ing can be accomplished using a hose-
end valve containing a bleed port, which
also allows for evacuation without the
use of an adapter.
IMPORTANT: Purge new cylinders before
filling. This tank is easily filled with a standard
CGA 510 POL filling connection.
B. Hose-end valve without a bleed port:
When a hose-end valve does not have a
bleed port, a separate device must be
used for evacuation.
C. Purging using a Type 1 connection: L.P.
gas cylinder evacuation can be accom-
plished during each purging by using a
Type 1 connection. The Type 1 valve out-
let has 1-5/16” external ACME right-hand
thread that will accept this connection.
CAUTION: After purging or filling an L.P.
gas cylinder, do not insert a POL plug into
the valve outlet. Insertion of this plug will
prevent the back-check from closing. Use
ONLY the provided cap and strap attached
to the outlet. Close the cylinder valve knob
before returning the cylinder to the customer.
Filling a Type 1 Cylinder Valve
Example A: shows a CGA-510 POL fitting.
For proper purging procedures in the USA,
refer to: Safety Bulletin NPGA#133, “Purging
L.P. Gas Cylinders,” and Safety Bulletin
NPGA#130, “Recommended Procedures for
Filling Cylinders.”
DANGER: Do not fill an L.P. gas cylinder
beyond 80% full. If this information is not fol-
lowed exactly, a fire causing serious injury or
death may occur.
The L.P. gas cylinder has a Type 1 cylinder
valve with a back-check module in its outlet
