Operating
The Weber Spider Stopper™ Guard(1) is factory installed.
It fits tightly around the air shutter section of the burner
tube and the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other
insects access to the burner tubes through the air shutter
openings.
General Maintenance
Weber Spider Stopper™ Guards
Your Weber Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas
appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects. They
can nest in the venturi section (Venturi(1), air shutter(2),
venturi fin(3) ) of the burner tubes. This blocks the
normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out
of the air shutter. This could result in a fire in and around
the air shutters, under the control panel, causing serious
damage to your barbecue.
(1)
We recommend that you inspect the Weber Spider
Stopper Guards at least once a year. (See Section
“Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the
Spider Stopper Guards if any of the following
symptoms should ever occur:

wing nuts(1) that hold the manifold to the cooking box.
Pull the manifold and valve assembly out of the
burners and carefully set it down.
9) Reinstall the Spider Stopper Guards. Slightly rotate
the Spider Stopper Guards so that the seams are in
line with the Venturi fins(1). There should be no gaps
in the seams or in the fit around the burners(2) and
valves(3).

Fill liquid propane cylinder
Check that all burner valves are off
Note - The liquid propane cylinder manufacturer is
responsible for the materials, workmanship and
performance of the cylinder. If the cylinder has a
defect, malfunctions, or you have a question regarding
the cylinder, call the cylinder manufacturer’s customer
service center. The phone number is on the warning
decal, which is permanently attached to the cylinder. If
the cylinder manufacturer has not resolved the issue to
your satisfaction, then contact the Customer Service
Representative in your region using the contact
information sheet provided with your manual.
To fill, take the liquid propane cylinder and filler
adapter to an RV center or look up gas-propane in the
phone book for other sources of liquid propane gas.
ꢀ WARNING:We recommend that your liquid
propane cylinder be filled at an authorized liquid
propane gas dealer by a qualified attendant, who
fills the tank by weight.
You will need: burner control knobs.
Valves are shipped in the OFF position, but you should
check to be sure that they are turned OFF. Put the
knob on each valve. Check by pushing down and
turning clockwise. If they do not turn, they are off.
Proceed to the next step. If they do turn continue
turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are
off. Proceed to the next step.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your liquid propane dealer that this is a new liquid
propane cylinder. The air must be removed from a new
liquid propane cylinder before the initial filling. Your
liquid propane cylinder dealer is equipped to do this.
The liquid propane cylinder must be installed,
transported and stored in an upright position, and
should not be dropped or handled roughly.
Never store or transport the liquid propane cylinder
where temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too
hot to hold by hand – for example: do not leave the
liquid propane cylinder in a car on a hot day).
For full instructions on safe handling of liquid propane
cylinders, see Section “Operating”.
Connect filled liquid propane cylinder
ꢀ WARNING: Make sure that the cylinder valve is
closed. Close by turning clockwise.
We utilize various LP tank manufacturers. Some of
the tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top
collar is the metal protective ring around the valve.)
Checking the fuel level in your tank
Check the fuel level by viewing the color indicator level
line on the side of the tank scale.

One series of tanks mount with the valve facing front.
The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from
the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated
below.
Hook the liquid propane cylinder onto the fuel gauge.
Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder
lock down. Tighten the wing nut.
Remove plastic dust cover from the fuel cylinder valve.
Screw the regulator coupling onto the cylinder
valve(1), clockwise, or to the right. Hand tighten only.
Note: This is a new type of connection. It tightens
clockwise and will not allow gas to flow unless the
connection is tight. The connection requires tightening
by hand only.
ꢀ WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the
connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a gas leak.
Check for gas leaks
ꢀ DANGER
Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
flames in the area while you check for
leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in
a fire or explosion which can cause
serious bodily injury or death and damage
to property.
ꢀ WARNING:You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.
Note - All factory-made connections have been
thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burners have
been flame-tested. As a safety precaution however,
you should recheck all fittings for leaks before using
your Weber Gas Barbecue. Shipping and handling may
loosen or damage a gas fitting.
(1)
ꢀ WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if
your barbecue was dealer or store assembled.
You will need: a soap and water solution, and a rag or
brush to apply it.
To perform leak checks: open tank valve by turning the
tank valve handwheel counterclockwise.
Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the
soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If
bubbles form or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.
Note - Since some leak test solutions, including soap
and water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections
should be rinsed with water after checking for leaks.
ꢀ WARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak
checking.

Liquid Propane (LP) Cylinder(s)
Safe handling tips for
Liquid Propane Gas
Cylinders
ꢀ The joint where the hose connects to the LP cylinder
must be leak tested each time the LP cylinder is
reconnected. For example, test each time the LP
cylinder is refilled.
ꢀ Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent
hole pointed downward so that it will not collect water.
This vent should be free of dirt, grease, bugs etc.
ꢀ The LP cylinder and connections supplied with your
Weber Gas Barbecue have been designed and tested
to meet government, American Gas Association, and
Underwriters Laboratories requirements.
Liquid Propane Cylinder requirements
ꢀ Replacement LP cylinders supplied by Weber satisfy
the above requirements. Check to be sure other
cylinders have a D.O.T. certification(1), and date
tested(2) is within five years. Your LP gas supplier can
do this for you.
ꢀ Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as
are gasoline and natural gas. LP gas is a gas at
regular temperatures and pressures. Under moderate
pressure, inside a cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the
pressure is released, the liquid readily vaporizes and
becomes gas.
ꢀ LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You
should be aware of this odor.
ꢀ LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may
collect in low areas and prevent dispersion.
ꢀ To fill, take the LP cylinder to an RV center, or look
up “gas-propane” in the phone book for other sources
of LP gas.
ƽ WARNING:We recommend that your LP cylinder
be filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a
qualified attendant, who fills the tank by weight.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.

ƽ WARNING: If you exchange your LP cylinder,
make sure you get a similar tank in return.Your LP
cylinder is equipped with a quick closing coupling
or type 1 valve and an OPD (Overfilling Prevention
Device). Other LP cylinders may not be compatible
with your barbecue connection.
ꢀ Air must be removed from a new LP cylinder before
the initial filling. Your LP dealer is equipped to do this.
ꢀ The LP cylinder must be installed, transported and
stored in an upright position. LP cylinders should not
be dropped or handled roughly.
ꢀ Never store or transport the LP cylinder where
temperatures can reach 125° F (too hot to hold by
hand - for example: do not leave the LP cylinder in a
car on a hot day).
Note - A refill will last about 20 hours of cooking time
