PROPANE MODELS:
Your griddle is designed to operate on LP gas at a pressure of 2.74 kPa (11” water column). A regulator pre-set to
this pressure is supplied with your griddle.
QCC-1 QUICK CLOSING COUPLING
All models are designed to be used with an LP gas cylinder equipped with
the new QCC-1 Quick Closing Coupling system.
The QCC-1 system incorporates new safety features required by the
Canadian Standards Steering Committee.
• Gas will not flow until a positive connection has been made.
• A thermal element will shut o the flow of gas between
240 – 300°F (116 – 149°C).
• When activated, a Flow Limiting Device will limit the flow of gas to
10 cubic feet per hour.
CONNECTING REGULATOR TO THE LP CYLINDER
1. LP cylinder must be properly secured onto grill.
2. Turn all control knobs to the OFF/“0” position.
3. Close the LP cylinder by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.
4. Remove the protective cap from LP cylinder valve. Always use cap and
strap supplied with valve.
5. Hold regulator and insert nipple into LP cylinder valve. Hand tighten
the coupling nut. Hold the regulator in a straight line with LP cylinder
valve so as not to cross-thread the connection.
6. Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to a full stop. The regulator will seal on the back-check feature in
the LP cylinder valve, resulting in some resistance.
Note:
If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect regulator and repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still
unable to complete the connection, do not use this regulator!

DANGER
Do not insert any tool or foreign object into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and cause a
leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
