Do not insert any tool or foreign object

into the valve outlet or safety relief

result in explosion, fire, severe personal

injury, or death.

• Never attempt to attach this grill to the

self-contained LP gas system of a
camper trailer or motor home.

• Do not use grill until leak-tested.

• If a leak is detected at any time, STOP

and call the fire department.

• If you cannot stop a gas leak,

immediately close LPcylinder valve

PROPANEGASMODELS:

Your barbequeis designedto operateon L.P. (propane) gas at a
pressure regulatedat 2.74 kPa(11"water column). A regulator
presetto this pressure is supplied with the barbequeand MUST

be used.

This regulator is equipped with the Q.C.C.Type 1, quick connect
coupling system, which incorporatesthe following safety
features: (Figure 5)

• It will notallow gasto flow untila positive seal has beenmade
(Figure6)

• It has a thermal elementthat will shut off the flow ofgas between
115and 150°C(240 and300°F)

• It also hasaflow-limiting devicewhich,whenactivated,will
restricttheflow of gasto 0.28cubicmetresper hour(10 cubicfeet
perhour)

Prior to attachingthepropanecylindertothe hoseand regulator,be
surethecylinder valveandthe appliancevalvesare OFF.The
cylinder valve is turned off by rotating the handwheel (seeFigure

3) clockwise(left to right) until it stopsand all appliancevalves
should bein the twelveo'clock position.Whenattachingthe
regulatorto thecylinder, makesurethat the small probe in the
nipple is centered in thematingQ.C.C.1 cylindervalve(seeFigure5
& 6). TurntherighthandthreadedQ.C.C.1blacknut ontothe valvein
a clockwise motion untilthereis a positivestop.

DO NOT USEA WRENCH,HAND TIGHTENONLY.

Shouldthelargeblackthermallysensitivecouplingnutbeexposedto
temperaturesabove115 - 150°C,it will soften and allow the

regulator probe to disengagefrom thecylindervalve-thereby
shuttingoff the flow of gas.Shouldthis occur,do not attempt to

reconnectthe nut. Removethe entire regulatorassembly,and
replaceit with a new one.

Thecause of the excessiveheatshouldbe determined and
correctedbeforeoperatingyour barbequeagain. The regulator

probe also contains aflow-sensing element,which will limit the
flow of gas to the regulator to a manageableamount(0.28cubic
metres/hour)inthe eventof ahoseor regulatorrupture. If it is

evidentthat the flow control devicehas beenactivated,the cause
of the excessiveflow should bedeterminedand correctedbefore

usingyour barbequeagain.

• Neverconnecta propanegasbarbequetoan unregulatedpropane
gassupply or anyothergas. Do not attempt to alterthe hose
or regulator in anyway.

• Theconnectionfitting must be protected when disconnected
from the propanetank. If the fitting is allowed to drag on the
ground, nicks andscratchescouldoccur resultingin a leakwhen
connectedto the propanetank.

PROPANEANDNATURALGASMODELS:

• Donot allow anygrease (or other hot material) to fall onto the
hose,or allowthe hoseto come in contact with anyhot surfaces
of the barbeque.

• Visually inspect the entire length of the hose assembly before
eachuseof the barbeque.If it is evident there is excessive
abrasion/wear,or the hoseis cut, it must be replacedprior to
usingyour barbeque.Onlythe hoseassembly asspecified in

the Parts List should be used.

• Follow the 'LEAKTEST'instructions before lighting your
barbequefor the first time, everytime a propanecylinder is
refilled, if any gas component is changed,if the regulatorflow-
limiting devicehas beenactivated, after prolonged periods of
storage or non-useor at least once per season.

NATURALGASMODELS:

• Neveruse with propane, or any othergases.

• Theapplianceand its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnectedfrom thegas supply piping during any pressure
testing of the system attest pressure inexcessof 3.5 kPa
(1/2 p.s.i.).

• Theappliancemust be isolated from the gas supply piping
system byclosing its individual manual shut-off valve during
anypressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
pressuresequalto or lessthan 3.5 kPa(1/2 p.s.i.).

• Thegassupply hose must bea minimum of 3.1 m (10 ft) anda
maximum of 3.6 m (12 ft). Alwaysdisconnect hose at quick
connectcoupling when storing your barbeque.

• Inspect and cleanquick connect coupling, and keepit protected
