Gas Instructions
Pass regulator through left hole in support panel.
2) Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder
lock down. Tighten the wing nut.
To Connect the hose to the cylinder:
3) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.
4) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve,
clockwise, or to the right. Hand-tighten only.
6) Turn on the cylinder valve.
7) Check for leaks by wetting the fitting with the soap and
water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles
form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.
If there is a leak, turn off the gas and tighten the fitting. Turn
the gas back on and recheck with the soap and water
solution.
If leak does not stop, Contact the Customer Service
Representative in your region using the contact information
sheet provided with your manual. Do not use the barbecue.
8) When leak checking is complete, turn gas supply OFF
at the source and rinse connections with water.
Note: This is a new type of connection. It tightens clockwise
and will not allow gas to flow unless the connection is tight.
The connection requires tightening by hand only.
ƽ WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the
connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a leak.
5) Mix soap and water.
We utilize various LP tank manufacturers. Some of the
tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is
the metal protective ring around the valve.) One series of
tanks mount with the valve facing front. The other tanks
mount with the valve facing away from the fuel scale.
These types of tanks are illustrated below.
You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a
rag or brush to apply it.
1) Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is
either to the front, side or rear of the Weber ® gas
barbecue. Lift and hook the cylinder onto the fuel
gauge.
