Hibachi Grill

LTR50001096, Rev. A

www.calflamebbq.com

Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction. In 

addition, some communities have codes requiring residential barriers 

such as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property to prevent unsu-

pervised access to the property by children under the age of five. Your 

dealer can provide information on which permits may be required and 

how to obtain them prior to the delivery of your equipment.

We recommend the installation, adjustment and service of your new 

hibachi grill be performed by LMS qualified installers and service tech

-

nicians to ensure proper operation and prevent accidents.
When planning your grill location, access to a gas line should be con-

sidered. The location with the shortest gas line run is recommended.
When determining a suitable location, consider factors such as expo-

sure to wind, proximity to traffic paths, and windows that open into 

the home.
Locate the hibachi grill only in a well-ventilated area.

If you do not have an updated filler valve on your existing propane tank, 

you will need to purchase one at your local hardware store.  Without it 

you will not be able to attach your tank to your grill or refill the tank at 

your local propane refill station.

Converting the Hibachi Gas Grill

IMPORTANT:  Cal Flame hibachi grills are manufactured to operate 

on liquid propane (LP). However, they can be converted to operate 

on  natural  gas  (NG)  by  an  authorized  service  technician.  Consult 

your Cal Flame dealer for information on converting your gas grill.

Owners must not convert their grills themselves. Attempt-

ing to convert the grill from LP to NG may result in serious 

injury and will void the warranty coverage.
