LP GAS HOOK UP (TYPE 1 OR QCC1 REGULATOR):
All outdoor appliances orificed for use with LP gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assem bly
for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder (Type 1). The LP tank is not included.
Connection: 1/2” NPT male with a 3/8” Flare adapter (included). LP Hose with a quick disconnect and fittings are
included. Operating pressure: 11.0” W.C.
CAUTION!
Before connecting LP tank to regulator, check that all burners are in the “OFF” position and the lid has been re-
moved.
To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, first make sure the main valve on the tank
is completely closed. Although the flow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part of its
safety feature, you should always turn off the LP tank main valve (Fig. 23) after each use and during transport of
the tank or unit. Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn the black coupler clockwise until the cou-
pler tightens up. Do not overtighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on, push and turn the burner control
valves on the unit to the “HI” position for about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to purge, turn valves off
and wait 5 minutes before attempting to light the burners.
To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main tank valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn counter
clockwise. The inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening if it has not already done
so when it disengaged. Your local LP filling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to fill your
tank.
LP TANK REQUIREMENTS:
A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP supplier. The cylinder that is
used must have a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Always check
for leaks after every LP tank change. The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT or CAN/CSA-B339) and designed
for use with a Type 1 system only. Do not change the regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with the unit
or attempt to use a Type 1 equipped regulator/hose assembly with a standard 510 POL tank/valve assembly. The
cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in a LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as
applicable, for connection Type 1. If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be disconnected and
removed from the appliance. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of
children.
Note:
When an LP unit is directly attached
into an LP house system, the step-
down regulator MUST be used to
reduce the supply pressure to a max.
14” W.C. and min. 11” W.C. to the
outdoor appliance regulator.
