Fill LP tank
Note - The LP tank manufacturer is responsible for the
materials, workmanship and performance of the tank. If
the tank has a defect, malfunctions, or you have a
question regarding the tank, call the tank manufacturer's
customer service center. The phone number is on the
warning decal which is permanently attached to the
tank. If the tank manufacturer has not resolved the issue
to your satisfaction, then call Weber-Stephen Products
Co., Customer Service Center.
To fill, take the LP tank and filler adapter to an RV center
or look gas-propane in the phone book for other sources
of LP gas.
ƽWARNING: We recommend that your LP tank be
filled at an authorized LP gas dealer by a qualified
attendant, who fills the tank by weight.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your LP dealer that this is a new LP tank. The air
must be removed from a new LP tank before the initial
filling. Your LP gas dealer is equipped to do this.
ƽCAUTION: If you exchange your LP tank, make
sure you get a similar tank in return. Your LP tank is
equipped with a quick-disconnect valve. Other LP
tanks are not compatible with your barbecue
connection.
The LP tank must be installed, transported and stored in
an upright position. LP tank should not be dropped or
handled roughly.
Never store or transport the LP tank where
temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too hot to hold
by hand – for example: do not leave the LP tank in a car
on a hot day).
For full instructions for safe handling of LP tanks see
section "Operating Instructions".
Note - Remove LP tank filler adapter before connecting
the regulator to the tank.
Step 22
Set LP fuel scale
You will need: LP tank (empty).
Note - For accuracy, the fuel scale must be set with an
empty tank.
We utilize various LP tank manufacturers. Some of the
tanks we receive have differing top collar assemblies.
(The top collar is the metal protective ring around the
valve.) One series of tanks mounts with the valve facing
the rear. The other tanks mount with the valve facing
away from the fuel scale. These types of tanks are
illustrated in Figure 31.
Loosen the tank lock wing nut. Tighten so the lock is
held up out of the way. Figure 31 (a). Lift and hook the
tank onto the fuel scale. With an empty LP tank, adjust
the fuel scale setting to E by turning the scale setting
(top) wing nut. Figure 31 (b).
ƽCAUTION: Do not remove adjustment wing nut
from tank scale.
After adjusting tank scale, push tank down a couple of
times to check that the tank scale is set on “E”.
