lp gas tank safety
LP Gas grill models are designed to use a standard 20lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas) tank, sold
separately. Do not connect your gas grill to an LP tank that exceeds this capacity. This is a tank
approximately 12” in diameter and 18-1/2” tall.
The tank must have an Overfill Prevention Device, “OPD”, installed. This is a safety device which
prevents filling the cylinder beyond its rated capacity, which can cause the LP tank to malfunction.
The LP Gas tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP-
Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada,
CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods, and Commission:
as applicable.
The LP Gas tank must have a shutoff valve, terminating in an LP Gas supply tank valve outlet,
that is compatible with a Type 1 tank connection device. The LP Gas tank must also have a safety
relief device that has a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank. The tank supply system
must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
The LP Gas tank must have a collar to protect the tank valve. Never connect an unregulated LP gas
tank to your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have an
outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.) for connection to an LP gas tank. Only use the regulator
and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill.
Replacement hose and regulator assembly must be identical to those listed in the parts list of this
Operating Manual as specified by XO.
Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve after every filling to ensure it remains free of defects.
Always keep LP Gas tank in upright position. Do not subject the LP Gas tank to excessive heat. Never
store an LP Gas tank indoors. If you store your gas grill in the garage always disconnect the LP Gas
tank first and store it safely outside. LPGas tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area and
out of the reach of children. Disconnected LP Gas tanks must not be stored in a building, garage or any
other enclosed area.
The regulator and hose assembly can be seen by opening the cart or island doors. They must be inspected
before each use of the grill. If the hose is damaged in any way, it must be replaced prior to using the unit.
The gas unit is set up to operate with an LP gas cylinder equipped with an OPD (overfilling prevention
device).
NOTE: LP Tank is secured
in the cart by a bolt
which locks it in place.
SAFETY NOTICE
Always shut the tank valve when not in use.
Excessive heat can cause vapor to be
released from the cylinder when not in use.
The grill cart has air vents
on three sides to allow for
the release of excess vapor.
