USE OF LP GAS CYLINDER AND INSTALLATION
BEFORE INSTALLING:
The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2 or the Standard for Recreational
Vehicles, ANSI A 119.2/NFPA 1192, and CSA Z240 RV Series, Recreational Vehicle Code, as
applicable.
BEFORE EVERY USAGE:
Be sure to inspect the hose for leaks, cuts, wear, abrasion, or damage of any sort before using
this appliance. If any damage is apparent, the hose must be replaced with a replacement hose
specified by the manufacturer before it is put in use.
LP GAS CYLINDER:
The LP (liquid propane) cylinder specifically designed to be used with this unit MUST have a
20 lb. (9.1kg) capacity with a Q.C.C. Type 1 cylinder valve and an overfilling protection device
(OPD). Only use LP cylinders with this type of valve.
LP tank valve must have:
⚫Purchase LP tanks only with these required measurements: 12”
(30.5cm) (diameter) x 18” (45.7cm) (tall) with 20lb. (9kg).
Capacity maximum.
⚫Q.C.C. Type 1 outlet compatible with regulator or appliance.
⚫Safety relief valve.
⚫UL listed Overfill Protection Device (OPD).
This OPD safety feature is identified by a
unique triangular hand wheel. Use only
tanks equipped with this type of valve.
⚫LP tank must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal.
The LP cylinder must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the
Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)
or the National Standard of Canada
CAN/CSA –B339, Cylinder, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods;
and Commission of Dangerous Goods; as applicable.

Page 9 of 53 20201209-Ver.1.0
Warnings
DANGER
⚫DO NOT connect this grill to an existing #510 POL cylinder valve with Left hand threads.
The Type 1 valve can be identified with the large external threads on the valve outlet.
⚫DO NOT connect to a propane cylinder exceeding its capacity.
⚫DO NOT connect to a cylinder that uses any other type of valve connection device.
⚫Never store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near your grill. This could cause pressure to
be expelled through the vapor relief valve resulting in fire, explosion or severe personal
injury including death.
⚫Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the LP gas cylinder enclosure free and clear from
obstructions and debris.
⚫DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. Damage to the valve outlet could
result. A valve outlet can cause a leak, possibly resulting in explosions, fire, severe bodily
harm or death.
WARNING
FOR FILLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER
⚫Allow only qualified LP gas dealers to properly fill or repair your LP cylinder.
⚫DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% capacity. Over-filled tanks can create a
dangerous condition. Over-filled tanks can build-up pressure and cause the relief valve to
expel propane gas vapors. The vapor is combustible and if it comes in contact with a
spark source or flame an explosion causing severe burns, bodily harm or death could
occur.
⚫Always use a safety cap when grill is not connected to a cylinder.
⚫If you exchange a cylinder with a qualified exchange program, be sure the cylinder has a
Type 1 valve and an over-filling prevention device (OPD).
