ƒ CONNECT THE REGULATOR TO THE LP TANK

VERY IMPORTANT:

- THE REGULATOR SHALL NOT BE IN A LOCATION THAT WILL ATTAIN A

TEMPERATURE ABOVE 140℉(60℃).

- THE REGULATOR SHALL INCORPORATE A PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

OR OVERPRESSURE DEVICE.

- THE INLET OF THE PRESSURE REGULATOR SHALL BE FITTED TO

CONNECT THE TYPE I CONNECTION OF THE TANK VALVE PER
ANSIZ21.81.

1) Make sure tank valve is in its full off position (turn clockwise to stop).
2) Check tank valve to assure it has proper external male threads (type I

connection per ANSIZ21.81).

3) Make sure all burner knobs are in their off position.
4) Remove the protective cap from LP tank valve. Always use cap and strap

supplied with valve.

5) Inspect valve connection port and regulator assembly. Look for any damage or

debris. Remove any debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never attempt to use
damaged or plugged equipment. Contact your local LP gas dealer for repair.

6) When connecting regulator assembly to the valve, hand tighten nut clockwise

to a positive stop. Do not use a wrench to tighten. Use of a wrench may

damage quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous condition. (As figure
shown below)

7) Open tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a soapy water solution to check

all connections for leaks before attempting to light grill. If a leak is found, turn
tank valve off and do not use grill until a local LP gas dealer can make repairs.
