L.P. TANK INFORMATION
Never use a dented or rusted L.P. tank or cylinder with a damaged valve.
L.P. cylinders are equipped with an O.P.D. (Overfilling Prevenon Device). The device shuts off the flow of gas to a
cylinder aer 80% capacity is reached. This limits the potenal for release of gas when the cylinder is heated,
averng a fire or possible injury.
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminang in an L.P. gas supply cylinder outlet specified, as applicable,
for connecon No. 510 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connecon ANSI/CGA-V-1.
Cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. (The L.P. cylinder must have an
overfill protecon device and a collar to protect the cylinder valve.)
The L.P. gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specificaons for L.P. gas
cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportaon (DOT) or the Naonal Standard of Canada, CAN/CAS-B339,
“Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportaon of Dangerous Goods and Commission.”
L.P. TANK USE
When turning the L.P. tank on, make sure to open the valve SLOWLY two (2) complete turns to ensure proper
gas flow. Most gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank. When gas is
allowed to escape rapidly it shuts off the gas supply. Opening the valve rapidly may simulate a gas leak, causing
the safety device to acvate, and restricng gas flow causing low flames. Opening the valve slowly will ensure
this safety feature is not falsely triggered.
• When not in use, gas supply cylinder valve is to be in the OFF posion.
• Storage of an outdoor gas cooking appliance indoor is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and
removed from the appliance.
• The tank supply system must be stored upright to allow for vapor withdrawal.
• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected before each use of the griddle. If there is excessive
abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the griddle being used again.
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or
any other enclosed area.
If this informaon is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
• 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.
• Only a qualified gas supplier should refill the
L.P. tank.
DO NOT store a spare L.P. gas tank under or near the
grill. Never fill the cylinder beyond 80% full.
If this informaon is not followed exactly, a fire
causing death or serious injury may occur.
