LP Tank
Exchange
•
Many
retailers
that sell grills offer you the option of
replacing
your empty LP tank through
an exchange
service. Use only those reputable
exchange
companies
that inspect, precision
fill, test and certify
their tanks. Exchange your tank only for an OPD
safety feature-equipped
tank as described in the "LP
Tank" section of this manual.
•
Always
keep new and exchanged
LP tanks in an
upright
position
during
use, transit or storage.
•
Leak test new and exchanged
LP tanks BEFORE
connecting
to the grill.
•
Place dust cap on cylinder
valve outlet whenever
the
cylinder
is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap
on the cylinder
valve outlet that is provided
with the
cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may
result in leakage
of propane.
LP Tank
Leak Test
For your safety
•
A leak test must be repeated
each time the LP tank is
exchanged
or refilled.
•
Do not smoke during
a leak test.
•
Do not use an open flame
to check for gas leaks.
•
The grill must be leak tested outdoors
in a well-
ventilated
area, away from ignition
sources such as
gas fired
or electrical
appliances.
During the leak
test, keep the grill away from open flames
or sparks.
•
Use a clean paintbrush
and a 50/50
mild soap and
water
solution. Brush soapy solution
onto areas
indicated
by arrows
in the figure below.
Leaks are
indicated
by growing
bubbles.
Connecting Regulator To The LP Tank
1.

secured onto the grill.
(Refer to assembly section.)
2.
Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
3.
Turn LP tank OFF by turning the OPD hand wheel
clockwise to a full stop.

.
Hold regulator
and insert nipple into the LP tank
valve. Hand-tighten
the coupling
nut, holding
regulator
in a straight
line with LP tank valve so as
not to cross-thread
the connection.
Turn the coupling
nut clockwise
and tighten
to a full
stop. The regulator
will seal on the back-check
feature
in the LP tank valve, resulting
in some
resistance.
An additional
one-half
to three-quarters
turn is required to complete
the connection.
Tighten
by hand only - do not use tools.
If "growing"
bubbles appear,
do not use or move the
LP tank. Contact
an LP gas supplier or your fire
department!
•
Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage
to
gas valve/hose/regulator
components
can result.
