should occur, turn the valves to the “OFF”
position on your grill head, then the valve on the
tank. Wait two minutes and then open the valve on
the tank BEFORE turning the valves of your grill
head. Always turn on the valve at the top of your
tank and then the valves to your grill head to the
“ON” position.

GAS

Both natural gas (NG) and propane gas (LP) have a
long history of safe use when simple rules are
followed. If not, there is danger of fire or explosion.

Check Local Codes. Consult your local LP dealer or
Natural Gas company listed in your local directory for
recommended installation procedures and regulations.
In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z21.58a-1999*CGA 1.62-M99.


The safety system detailed above has been
incorporated into your PGS gas grill to provide you and
your family the maximum in safety when operating the
grill.

NEVER USE NATURAL GAS IN A UNIT
DESIGNED FOR LIQUID PROPANE OR
THE REVERSE. IF YOU WISH TO

CONVERT YOUR GRILL FROM ONE TYPE OF
GAS TO THE OTHER, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR
LOCAL DEALER OR DISTRIBUTOR.

PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THE LP HOSE

OR USE WITH A STANDARD 20 LB.
P.O.L. CYLINDER OR TANK

EQUIPPED WITH A "QCCI" FITTING.

TURN VALVE THAT IS LOCATED AT THE
TOP OF TANK TO "OFF" WHEN GRILL IS
NOT IN USE.

Never connect an unregulated propane gas cylinder or
unregulated natural gas to your gas grill (Note: most
homes equipped with natural gas have a regulator
near the gas meter.

DO NOT CONNECT THE GRILL TO A PROPANE GAS
CYLINDER GREATER THAN 20 LB. CAPACITY.

USER SAFETY INFORMATION OF PROPANE

MODELS

Check with your LP gas utility or your PGS dealer for a
local source for tanks that accommodate a "TYPE II"
Tank nipple.


Your PGS grill is designed to operate on Propane Gas
regulated at a gas pressure of 11" water column
(W.C.) (2.7kPa). If you are hooking your grill into
"System LP" which fuels your home, please be certain
that you are at this pressure.

PROPANE CYLINDER FILLING

Federal Law requires any tank used for a gas grill
must include an overfill protection device
. If you
are uncertain whether your tank complies, check with
selling dealer. A "TYPE II" FILL ADAPTER has been
supplied with your PGS LP cart that can be used by
any LP filling station in the event they do not have the
proper tank filling adapter. Please do not allow a
fueling station operator to change or modify this safety
system. If for any reason the fueling station is not
familiar with this adapter, please find another fueling
station.

Operating your grill at pressure higher or
lower than recommended may damage the
grill or result in a hazard or

poor performance.

A regulator adjusted to this pressure must be installed
in the gas supply line before the grill is connected to
the propane source. PGS propane gas grills include
an 11" W.C. regulator and a "TYPE II" Cylinder
Connection Device. This system complies with the
specifications and requirements of ANSI Z21.58a-
1999*CGA 1.62-M99 standards. This system can only
be used with a "quick couple" type of tank. Our
regulated hoses include an excess flow safety system
that will limit the flow of gas to your grill in the event of
leaking gas or a damaged hose.

PUT THE "TYPE II" FILL ADAPTER IN A SAFE
PLACE SO THAT IT IS AVAILABLE WHEN NEEDED

TYPE II

FILL ADAPTER

When the hose is disconnected from the quick coupler
on the tank, the flow of gas is safely shut off. You
must still shut off the main tank valve located at the top
of the tank when transporting your tank or when the
unit is not in use.

PLEASE NOTE. In the event that you inadvertently
have the valves of your grill turned to the "ON"
position, and then open the valve on top of your
tank, the excess flow device will activate and shut
off the flow of gas. If this
