OPERATION
Propane Gas Hook-up
1. This BBQ is set-up for High Pressure Propane. Models with (5) digit model #s
can only be operated in high pressure. Models with (6) digit model #s can be
operated on either. This is called our “Flexfuel” system. To use low pressure
propane with the Flexfuel system, the high pressure regulator must be unthreaded
from the low pressure valve and the supplied 3/8” male flare fitting must be
attached to the valve in the regulators place.
2. When using standard 1 Lb disposable propane canisters, ensure the regulator is in
the off position prior to fastening the canister. Take caution not to cross thread.
3. When using a propane supply already on board, the BBQ can be hooked up prior
to the regulator, as the barbecue has its own regulator valve assembly, direct from
the box. If you wish to hook up on the low pressure side of your system’s
regulator, and your bbq is equipped with the Flexfuel system, then the high
pressure regulator must be unthreaded from the low pressure valve and the
supplied 3/8” male flare fitting must be attached to the valve in the regulators
place. DO NOT DOUBLE REGULATE.
4. Check for leaks prior to use.
5. The disposable propane canister must not be more than 45 degrees off vertical
6. Store and use the barbecue in a well ventilated area. Do not store with Propane
bottle attached.
7. Do not store fuel tanks in direct sunlight, indoors, or in temperatures over 120 °F.
8. Shut off connections at tank supply when barbecue is not in use.
Lighting
Now that your barbecue has been connected to a propane supply you are ready to light
it.
1. Never operate your Barbecue indoors. Use only in a well ventilated area.
2. Make sure the regulator is in the off position.
3. Open lid.
4. Push and turn the regulator counter-clockwise to the high setting.
5. Light the BBQ with a Butane lighter using the lighting holes located either on the
right hand side of the heat plate or on the left side of the BBQ.
6. Visually confirm burner is lit by looking through the front of the BBQ.
7. Adjust heat setting.
8. To shut off, turn knob clockwise to the Lock-Off position.
Note: If burner does not light after (10) seconds, turn valve to off position and wait
(5) minutes before repeating.
