GAS CONNECTION

13
CONNECT THE REGULATOR TO THE LP TANK
VERY IMPORTANT:
- THE REGULATOR SHALL NOT BE IN A LOCATION THAT WILL ATTAIN A
TEMPERATURE ABOVE 140℉（60℃）.
- THE REGULATOR SHALL INCORPORATE A PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
OR OVERPRESSURE DEVICE.
- THE INLET OF THE PRESSURE REGULATOR SHALL BE FITTED TO
CONNECT THE TYPE I CONNECTION OF THE TANK VALVE PER
ANSIZ21.81.
1) Make sure tank valve is in its full off position (turn clockwise to stop).
2) Check tank valve to assure it has proper external male threads (type I
connection per ANSIZ21.81).
3) Make sure all burner knobs are in their off position.
4) Remove the protective cap from LP tank valve. Always use cap and strap
supplied with valve.
5) Inspect valve connection port and regulator assembly. Look for any damage or
debris. Remove any debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never attempt to use
damaged or plugged equipment. Contact your local LP gas dealer for repair.
6) When connecting regulator assembly to the valve, hand tighten nut clockwise
to a positive stop. Do not use a wrench to tighten. Use of a wrench may
damage quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous condition. (As figure
shown below)
7) Open tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a soapy water solution to check
all connections for leaks before attempting to light grill. If a leak is found, turn
tank valve off and do not use grill until a local LP gas dealer can make repairs.

supplier or the fire department.
DANGER
NEVER store a spare LP tank under or near grill or in an enclosed area.
NEVER fill the tank beyond 80% full. An overfilled spare LP tank is dangerous
because surplus gas may leak from safety relief valve. The safety relief valve on
a LP tank could activate to release gas and cause a fire.
The spare LP tank must have safety caps installed on the LP tank outlet.
If any gas leaks are found on the spare LP tank, immediately step away from the

GAS CONNECTION

15
GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to
shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation
site due to possible mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly
being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or
immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.
BEFORE TESTING
1) Make sure that all packing material is removed from the grill including the burner
tie-down straps.
2) Do not smoke while leak testing.
3) Never leak test with an open flame.
4) Make a soap solution with one part liquid detergent and another part water.
Prepare a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the connections. For
the initial leak test, make sure the LP cylinder is full.
5) Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances, and flammable materials.
6) Keep grill away from open flames and/or sparks while testing.
TO TEST
1) Make sure all control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
2) Make sure the regulator is connected to the LP tank tightly.
3) Completely open LP tank valve by turning counter clockwise. If you hear a “POP”
sound, turn gas off IMMEDIATELY, as it indicates a heavy leak at the connection.
Call your gas dealer or fire department.
4) Check every connection from the LP tank up to and including the connection to
the manifold pipe assembly (the pipe that goes to the burner) by brushing or
spraying the soapy solution on the connections.
5) If soap bubbles appear, there is a leak. Turn off LP tank valve IMMEDIATELY
and retighten connections, Open LP tank valve again, and recheck.
6) If leaks cannot be stopped, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR. Call our service
center at (888)-287-0735 for help.
7) Always close the LP tank valve after leak testing by turning clockwise.
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill.

been checked and do not leak.
LEAK TESTING

16
SAFETY TIPS:
1) ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP TANK CHANGE.
2) ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS BEFORE EACH USE.
3) USE LONG BBQ TOOL TO AVOID BURNS.
4) CHECK ALL GAS SUPPLY FITTINGS FOR LEAKS BEFORE EACH USE. IT
IS HANDY TO KEEP A SPRAY BOTTLE OF SOAPY WATER NEAR THE
SHUT-OFF VALVE OF THE GAS SUPPLY LINE. SPRAY ALL THE FITTINGS.
BUBBLES INDICATE LEAKS.
5) DISCONNECTED LP CYLINDERS MUST HAVE THREADED VALVE PLUGS
TIGHTLY INSTALLED, AND MUST NOT BE STORED IN A BUILDING,
GARAGE, OR ANY OTHER ENCLOSED AREAS.
6) TURN OFF ALL CONTROL KNOBS AND LP TANK VALVE WHEN THE
GRILL IS NOT IN USE.
