2.4.1 L.P. Gas Cylinder
Gas cylinders manufactured today have mechanisms to provide worry free
barbequing year round:
Q.C.C.1 or Type 1-Quick Connect Coupling Valve, ensure fast tank hook-ups requir-
ing only hand tightening. The redundant valve system inhibits the flow of gas to
the burner if the connection is not 100% correct.
O.P.D. or Overfill Protection Device prevents accidental gas leaks caused by
cylinder “over pressurization”, the leading cause of cylinder gas leaks. The float
in the tank will automatically stop filling at 80% capacity, leaving a 20% area for
the expansion of liquid. Without this safety feature, the relief valve may open and
discharge propane, creating a potential safety hazard. An O.P.D. cylinder is easily
distinguished by its triangular hand wheel valve. Figure 4)
Look for the Gas Guardian symbol to easily
identify propane cylinders with these safety
features.
1. SPECIFICATIONS
Self-contained propane gas barbeque systems are designed to be used only with a
9.1 kg (20 lb) propane cylinder, equipped with a Type 1 cylinder valve and incor-
porating an overfill protection device (O.P.D). This barbeque cannot be connected
to an existing #510 P.O.L. type valve (ones with left-hand threads). The cylinder
for your gas barbeque must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications of L.P. gas cylinders:
In Canada: The National Standards of Canada CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres
and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission.
In the U.S.: U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)
DO NOT CONNECT TO A PROPANE GAS CYLINDER EXCEEDING THIS CAPACITY,
OR USE A CYLINDER WITH ANY OTHER TYPE OF VALVE CONNECTION DEVICE.
The Type 1 valve is recognizable by the large external thread on the outlet part
of the valve. Standard existing valves do not have these exterior threads. Any
attempt to connect a regulator, with other than the:
i) Mating Type 1 connector (recognized by the large black coupling nut)
or
ii) Standard #510 P.O.L. fitting,
by use of adapters or any other means, could result in damage, fire or injury and
may negate the important safety features designed into the Type 1 system. The
connection of a #510 P.O.L. fitting will not provide the flow control or temperature
shut-off features built into the complete Type 1 system.
We strongly recommend use of a propane cylinder with Q.C.C.I and O.P.D.
safety features.
THE CYLINDER MUST ALSO BE EQUIPPED WITH:
a. A shut-off valve terminating in a proper cylinder valve outlet specified in
current standards:
b. A listed overfilling protection device (O.P.D.).
c. A safety relief valve having direct communication with the vapor space of the
cylinder.
d. A collar to protect the tank shut off valve.
e. An arrangement for vapor withdrawal.
f. A bottom ring for securing to tank support assembly.
THE CYLINDER SHOULD NOT EXCEED 472 MM (18 1/2”) IN HEIGHT AND 317
MM (12 1/2”) IN DIAMETER.

• DO NOT smoke while transporting a cylinder in your vehicle.
• Never ll a cylinder beyond 80% full : a re causing death
or serious injury may occur
• An over lled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard due
to possible gas release from the safety relief valve. This
could cause an intense re with risk of property damage,
serious injury or death.
• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately get away
from the LP cylinder/appliance and call your re department.
• Never store a spare LP cylinder under or near the appliance
or in an enclosed area.
• Do not store a spare LP cylinder under or near a barbecue
grill, or other heat sources, (Figure 5a & 5b)
• Do not move the BBQ/grill when operating or while BBQ/
grill is hot.
• Never store or transport the LP cylinder where temperatures
can reach 125 F.
• Do not leave an LP cylinder in a car on a hot day.
• Do not use a damaged LP cylinder. Dented or rusty LP cylin-
ders or LP cylinders with a damaged valve may be hazard-
ous and should be replaced with a new one immediately.

section of this manual.
transit or storage.
2.5 Hose & Regulator
PROPANE GAS MODELS:
Your barbeque is designed to operate on L.P. (propane) gas at a pressure
regulated at 2.74 kPa (11” water column). A regulator preset to this pressure is
supplied with the barbeque and MUST be used.
This regulator is equipped with the Q.C.C. Type 1, quick connect coupling system,
which incorporates the following safety features: (Figure 7)
150°C (240 and 300°F)
of gas to 0.28 cubic metres per hour (10 cubic feet per hour)
Prior to attaching the propane cylinder to the hose and regulator, be sure the
cylinder valve and the appliance valves are OFF. The cylinder valve is turned off by
rotating the handwheel (see Figure 4) clockwise (left to right) until it stops and
all appliance valves should be in the twelve o’clock position. When attaching the
regulator to the cylinder, make sure that the small probe in the nipple is centered
in the mating Q.C.C. 1 cylinder valve (see Figure 7). Turn the right hand threaded
Q.C.C.1 black nut onto the valve in a clockwise motion until there is a positive
stop.
DO NOT USE A WRENCH, HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
Should the large black thermally sensitive coupling nut be exposed to tempera-
tures above 115 - 150°C, it will soften and allow the regulator probe to disen-
gage from the cylinder valve – thereby shutting off the flow of gas. Should this
occur, do not attempt to reconnect the nut. Remove the entire regulator assembly,
and replace it with a new one.
The cause of the excessive heat should be determined and cor-
rected before operating your barbeque again. The regulator probe also contains
a flow-sensing element, which will limit the flow of gas to the regulator to a
manageable amount (0.28 cubic metres/hour) in the event of a hose or regulator
rupture. If it is evident that the flow control device has been activated, the cause
of the excessive flow should be determined and corrected before using your
barbeque again.

3.3 CLEANING OTHER PARTS OF YOUR
APPLIANCE
BURNER:
At least twice a year, clean your burner when cleaning the venturi tubes. The
burner can be gently scraped clean with a brass bristle brush. Ensure that all
burner ports (openings) are clear (DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS). If you find
cracks, abnormal holes, or damage caused by corrosion during your inspection and
cleaning, replace burner. (SEE WARRANTY).
IGNITOR:
Clean the ignitor clip lightly using a wire brush to remove rust and grease. DO
NOT USE WATER OR CLEAN THE ELECTRODE WITH THE WIRE BRUSH. Visually
inspect the ceramic of the electrode for cracks. The electrode can be wiped with
a soft cloth if necessary. If a crack is found, a replacement ignitor system will be
required.
CLEANING GRIDS:
After each use, scrub the cooking grids with a stiff long-handled brass brush. Do
not use steel brushes, as they can scratch the nickel or porcelain coating. Grids can
also be washed with mild detergent. Never use commercial oven cleaners. If rust
appears on your cooking grids, remove the rust with a scrub pad and coat the grid
with some cooking oil. If excessive wear is evident, you might want to replace or
upgrade your cooking grid.
Porcelain surfaces:
Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking
soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring
powder for stubborn stains.
Painted surfaces:
Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe
dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.
Stainless steel surfaces:
To maintain your grill’s high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and
warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease
deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in
direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas
with graphics.
SIDE SHELVES:
Metal Shelves: Use any household cleaner, except those containing acid or mineral
spirits. Be sure to rinse well after cleaning.
DO NOT USE AS A CUTTING BOARD.
Plastic Shelves: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not use citrisol,
abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Dam-
age to and failure of parts can result.
Plastic parts:
Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners,
degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure
of parts can result.
CASTING INTERIOR AND WARMING RACK:
At least once a year remove all components from inside your barbeque. Loosen
any cooking residue with a scraping tool for large particles and a brass barbeque
brush for smaller particles. Scrub with hot water and a strong detergent, then rinse
thoroughly or spray barbeque degreaser liberally on all interior surfaces. Be sure
to use gloves and eye protection. Let stand for 10 minutes, scrape off residue
and repeat if required. Rinse thoroughly with water. Replace all components as
outlined in the assembly instructions.
DO NOT USE DEGREASER ON PAINTED OR PLASTIC SURFACES. DO NOT ALLOW
EXCESSIVE GREASE OR OTHER RESIDUE TO BUILD UP ON YOUR COOKING
SYSTEM AS A FIRE MAY RESULT.

3.4 CLEANING GREASE PAN
General Grill Cleaning: Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the factory (and should
never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a grill
cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to
completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.
Grease PAN and Grease Tray Insert: The grease tray and insert are lo-
cated on the bottom of the base casting, below the grease pan, and immediately
below the hole through which any grease will drain. The grease pan tray insert
should be checked and replaced and cleaned prior to each use to prevent grease
from overflowing.
3.5 PROPER INSTALLATION OF THE
GREASE PAN
SECURING THE GREASE PAN
1-Look at the back of your grill. With the original grease pan removed, you should
become familiar with the rail and locking system.
2-The base casting of the BBQ/Grill firebox has an integrated rail design that
secures and holds the grease pan in place. The base casting has unique tabs that
lock and secure the grease pan in place.
3-install the grease pan by sliding it into place, using the rails as a guide.
CORRECT INSTALLATION
4-Push the grease pan forward as far as possible. When properly installed, the
edge of the grease pan should not extend beyond the end of the base casting
grease pan rails at the back of the BBQ/grill box. The tabs of the grease pan/
heat shield will lock in place, securing it.
INCORRECT INSTALLATION
5-If the grease pan is not fully inserted and locked in place, the edge of the grease
pan will extend beyond the end of the base casting grease pan rails at the back of
the BBQ/grill box.
THIS BBQ/GRILL MUST BE OPERATED WITH A GREASE PAN INSTALLED AT ALL
TIMES. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE GREASE PAN IS FULLY INSERTED. THE GREASE
PAN SHOULD BE CHECKED AND CLEANED PRIOR TO EACH USE TO PREVENT
GREASE BUILDUP AND OVERFLOW. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN A GREASE
FIRE. MAKE SURE THE BBQ/GRILL IS COOL BEFOREREMOVING THE GREASE PAN.
WARNING
!ENSURE THAT GREASE PAN AND TRAY ARE EMPTIED
AFTER EACH USE. IF EXCESS GREASEIS ALLOWED TO
ACCUMULATE, A POSSIBLE FIRE CAUSING PROPERTY
DAMAGE OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY OCCUR.
