• 1. Remove all packaging materials, tape, and plastic coverings.

1. These Big John products are designed FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
2. Place grill on a level area clear of combustible materials.
3. Models purchased without a stand, should be placed on a sturdy, level, non-combustible surface that is capable of safely supporting the weight of the grill.
4. Securely connect regulator to propane cylinder and test for leaks according to the instructions in the PROPANE SAFETY section of these instructions.
5. Place one bag of lava rocks over burners in each section prior to igniting.
6. Place cooking grates on unit.
7. We recommend curing your grates by applying a coat of vegetable oil to the grates, then heating the grates for approximately 20 minutes, prior to using the grates for the first time.

Operation

1. Prior to opening main cylinder valve, and lighting grill, place all control knobs in the "CLOSED" position (turned to the left).
2. Open main cylinder valve. Hold a lit butane gun next to a burner and turn the burner control knob to "OPEN" (pointing at you). The burner will ignite instantly. The second burner in each section will instantly light by simply turning it on. Since each section is ignited separately, only light the section required.
3. Once burners are lit, adjust the control knobs to desired temperature.
4. When finished cooking close all control knobs, close main cylinder valve and disconnect propane cylinder.
5. Clean grates with non-metallic pad (like Scotch-Brite) while grates are still hot. DO NOT USE A WIRE BRUSH ON STAINLESS STEEL GRATES.
6. Cast Iron Grates must be protected from moisture and stored with a coating of vegetable oil to prevent rusting.

• Never use or store cylinders indoors.
• Keep main cylinder valve securely closed when not in use. WARNING: Propane tank valves are designed to work completely open and/or completely closed. Never just crack the valve.
• Always position the LP cylinder so that the connection between the valves and the regulator will not cause sharp bends in the hose.
• The POL connector on the regulator screws in to the valve outlet of a 30 lb. cylinder, by turning counterclockwise (to the left) only.
• Make sure the connector is free from scratches or nicks which can cause leaks.
• There are two (2) types of connectors (see Diagram A and Diagram B)
• DISCONNECTING AND TRANSPORTING CYLINDERS FOR REFILLING:
  1. Turn off all control knobs and close the main cylinder valve.
  2. Place cylinder plug snugly in the main cylinder valve outlet.
  3. Always transport and store LP cylinders in a secured, upright position.
  4. Never keep propane cylinders in a hot car or truck. Heat could cause the relief valve to discharge propane and create a dangerous situation.
• RECONNECTING A FILLED 30 lb. CYLINDER:
  • Remove the main cylinder valve plug.
  • Thread the POL Connector snugly into the main cylinder valve by turning counterclockwise (to the left).
  • What you do next depends on whether you have a soft nose connector with a rubber ring or a hard nose connector:
• WITH A SOFTNOSE CONNECTOR (DIAGRAM A):
  If there is a handwheel, tighten firmly by hand, or use a wrench. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. The rubber O ring must be in place on soft nose POL connectors, otherwise it may not seat and form a good seal.
• WITH A HARDNOSE CONNECTOR (DIAGRAM B):
  Use 8" adjustable wrench. Tighten firmly but do not use excessive force.
• Always test for leaks according to the diagram below.
• If you suspect a problem, have your grill or tank serviced by a qualified propane dealer.
