GAS CYLINDER REQUIREMENTS

The grill is set and tested with liquid propane gas only. The regulator supplied is set for 27.94 cm (11 inch) water column (WC) and
is for use with LP gas only. The factory-supplied regulator and hose must be used with a 9 kg (20 lbs) LP gas tank. Contact your
gas supplier for a special regulator for bulk gas that fuels other appliances.
CAUTION: It is important to inspect the full length of the gas line hose. If it is evident there is excessive
abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, the hose must be replaced prior to the appliance being used.

INSTALLING A GAS CYLINDER

1. From the side of the cart, place foot ring of 9 kg (20 lbs) tank onto
the gas tank support bracket Fig 1. Make sure the tank valve is in OFF
position. Put tank handle to LP Gas Cylinder Wire Retainer and secure
tightly Fig 2. Ensure the tank is completely upright, as it is unsafe to
operate the grill if the gas tank is not installed properly.
2. Ensure the regulator valve on the grill is completely closed by turning
the knob clockwise to the OFF position.
3. Remove the protective caps from the regulator valve opening and
the top of the gas cylinder. Save the caps.
4. Insert the gas cylinder valve into the threaded opening of the regulator
valve. Turn the cylinder clockwise until firm. Hand-tighten only.
5. Gas cylinder is now installed.
PREPARATION FOR USE – LEAK TESTING
A leak test is used to determine the integrity of a seal. Before using your gas grill, perform a leak test on the connection between
the regulator and the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or explosion. A leak test should be
performed a minimum of once a season, as well as:
• before lighting your grill for the first time,
• every time the gas cylinder has been changed,
• after travel, especially over rough or bumpy roads,
• after a prolonged period of storage or non-use.
HOW TO PERFORM A LEAK TEST
Supplies Required:
1 x Bowl ( empty, clean )
1 x Paint Brush ( clean )
Dish Washing Liquid
Water
Procedure:
1. Position the grill in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the grill is cool to the touch, and not in use. Verify that the
regulator value is turned to the OFF position and that the gas cylinder is tightened securely to the regulator.
IMPORTANT: Ensure there is no open flame or smokers nearby.
2. Mix a solution of one part of water with one part of dish washing liquid in a bowl. The solution will make bubble,
as it will be concentrated.
