LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) RUBBER SEAL INSPECTION:
•
Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for cracks,
wear or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber
seal can cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an
explosion, fire or severe bodily harm.
•
Inspection should be done each time the propane tank
is connected to the grill, has been refilled, exchanged or
has not been used for more than 60 days.
•
Do not use a propane tank with a damaged rubber seal.
Exchange the tank or have the rubber seal replaced at a
qualified propane filling station.
INSTALLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) ONTO THE GRILL:
1. Check that the cylinder valve is closed by turning the knob clockwise.
2. Place the cylinder into the tank holder on the bottom of the left brace. Then slide tank brace over
cylinder handle and secure tightly.
3. Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the front of grill and so that the hose is not
kinked or damaged.
4. Make sure tank sits securely in tank holder.
