Weber 3200 LP Manual - Set Lp Fuel Scale

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

front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away

from the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated in

Figure 9.

Loosen the tank lock wing nut. Tighten so the lock is held

up out of the way. Figure 9 (a). Lift and hook the tank onto

the fuel scale. With an empty LP tank, adjust the fuel scale

setting to E with scale setting (top) wing nut. Figure 9 (b).

CAUTION: 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”.

FILL LP TANK

To fill, take the LP tank and filler adapter to an RV center,

or look up gas-propane in the phone book for other

sources of LP gas.

WARNING: 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 tank dealer is equipped to do this.

CAUTION: If you exchange your LP tank, make sure

you get a similar tank in return. Your LP tank is

equipped with a Type II, CGA #810 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).

Section "General Tank Information”.
