Propane Grill Instruction Sheet

Thank you for renting from Canton Canopies, please take a moment and review the care and operating instructions of your rented equipment. Please read through all instructions before attempting to operate your rented equipment.  If you have any questions about the proper operation of the equipment you rented please call our offices.

 

SETUP

  1. Propane gas grills are for OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
  2. Place grill on a level area clear of combustible items.

 

OPERATION

  1. Before connecting regulator to propane tank, place all control knobs in the closed position (turned to the left). Control knobs are located below the stainless steel workshelf.
  2. Securely connect regulator to propane cylinder. The regulator is equipped with a hand wheel for hand tight regulator/tank connection.  NOTE Threads on propane tanks are left handed threads. Turn counter clockwise to tighten.  Turn clockwise to loosen.
  3. Open main cylinder valve.  Place a lit butane gun through the grates next to the lava rocks in the first burner section and turn burner control knob to open (pointing at you).  Burner will instantly light.  The second burner in each section will instantly light by simply turning it on.  Since each section is ignited separately, only light the sections required.
  4. Once burners are lit, adjust control knobs to desired temperature.
  5. When finished cooking close all control knobs, close main cylinder valve on propane tank and disconnect regulator from propane cylinder.
  6.  Clean cast iron cooking grates with a steel wire brush.  Cast iron cooking grates should be sprayed with vegetable oil prior to lighting the grill.  This will help eliminate food sticking to the grates during the cooking cycle.  After you are done cooking, shut the grill off and brush the grates clean while they are still hot.  After the gill has cooled use a cleaner / degreaser on the stainless steel surfaces and wipe clean with paper towels.  Use a Scotch-Brite pad for baked on messes on the stainless steel surfaces. DO NOT use steel wool pads.

 

PROPANE SAFETY

  1. Never use or store cylinders indoors.
  2. Keep main cylinder valve securely closed when not in use.
  3. WARNING:   PROPANE TANK VALVES ARE DESIGNED TO WORK COMPLETELY OPEN AND COMPLETELY CLOSED.  NEVER JUST CRACK THE VALVE.
  4. Always position cylinder so that connection between valves and regulator will not cause sharp bends in the hose or tubing.

 

 

 

DISCONNECTING AND TRANSPORTING

  1. Turn off all control knobs and close main cylinder valve.
  2. Place cylinder valve plug snugly in main cylinder valve outlet.
  3. Always transport and store cylinders in a secured, upright position.
  4. Never keep propane cylinders in a hot car or truck.  Heat could cause relief valve to discharge propane and create a dangerous situation.
