FUEL REGULATOR AND HOSE
The fuel regulator supplied is equipped with a
Type 1 coupling nut. Do not attempt to connect
to any other L.P cylinder not equipped with a
mating Type 1 cylinder valve. This grill is not to
be used with any other cylinder connection
device.
The fuel regulator and hose assembly with the
Type 1 fitting supplied must be used with the
appliance. Do not use a hose and regulator
assembly other than the one supplied with the
grill or a manufacturer ’s replacement fuel pres-
sure regulator assembly.
The Type 1 connection system has the follow-
ing features:
1. The system will not allow gas to flow until a
positive connection has been made.
2. The system has a thermal element that will
shut off the flow of gas between 240° F and
300° F.
3. The system has a flow-limiting device which
when activated, will limit the flow of gas to 10
cubic feet per hour.
4. The pressure regulator and hose assembly
provided is factory set at an outlet pressure of
11 inches water column (.4 lb. per sq. inch).
WARNING: Any attempt to adjust the regu-
lator is dangerous and could create a situa-
tion causing personal injury or property
damage. Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you
think the regulator is not working properly.
FUEL-CYLINDER SPECIFICATIONS
Any L.P. gas-supply cylinder used with this grill
must be approximately 12 inches diameter and
18 inches high. The maximum fuel capacity
must be 20 pounds of propane. Full-cylinder
weight should be approximately 38 pounds (43.7
lbs. nominal water capacity).
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve
terminating in a Type 1 L.P gas-cylinder-valve
outlet. A Type 1 compatible cylinder with a Type
1 cylinder valve has a positive seating connec-
tion that does not permit gas flow until a positive
seal has been obtained.

WARNING: Do not use natural gas in an
appliance designed for L.P. gas. Use only liquid
propane (L.P.) gas in an appliance designed for
L.P. gas.
L.P. Gas
Liquid Propane (abbreviated L.P.) gas is
stored under high pressure inside a cylinder and
vaporizes when released. It is important that
there are no leaky connections on the grill’s fuel
supply system.
The L.P. FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM
An L.P. gas grill requires a fuel delivery sys-
tem made up of an L.P gas supply cylinder, a
fuel regulator with hose and a gas-control valve.
