GAS INSTRUCTIONS
ƽ DANGER
Do not use an open fl ame to check for gas leaks. Be
sure there are no sparks or open fl ames in the area
while you check for leaks. Sparks or fl ames will result
in a fi re or explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.
Some LP tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is the
metal protective ring around the valve.) One series of tanks mount with the
valve facing front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from
the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated below.
You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to
apply it.
1) Make sure hose and regulator are in retaining clip.
ƽ DANGER
Failure to use retaining clip could result in gas leaks,
re or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury
or death, and damage to property.
2) Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is either to the front,
side or rear of the Weber

Tighten the wing nut.
To Connect the hose to the cylinder:
4) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.
5) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the
right. Hand-tighten only.
Note: This is a new type of connection. It tightens clockwise and will not
allow gas to fl ow unless the connection is tight. The connection requires
tightening by hand only.
ƽ WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the
connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a leak.
6) Mix soap and water.
7) Turn on the cylinder valve.
8) Check for leaks by wetting the fi tting with the soap and water solution
and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form, or if a bubble grows, there is
a leak.
If there is a leak, turn off the gas and tighten the fi tting. Turn the gas back on
and recheck with the soap and water solution.
If leak does not stop, contact the Customer Service Representative in your
area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com
