OPTIONAL GA9200 SERIES ON/OFF 
SAFETY VALVE/PILOT KIT

For additional convenience and safety an optional 

ON/OFF safety valve/pilot kit is available. See 

Ac-

cessories

, page 13.

Parts are available in this kit for propane/LP conver-

sion. See kit instruction sheet for detailed installation 

instructions.

 WARNING: You must use an 

ON/OFF safety valve/pilot kit for 

propane/LP conversion.

TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS

1.  Generously apply noncorrosive leak detec-

tion fluid to all connections.

 WARNING: Never check for 

gas leaks with open flame.

2.  Light the burner with the shutoff valve no 

more  than  half  open  and  holding  a  match 

slightly  in  front  of  the  pan  (see 

Lighting 

Instructions

, page 9).

3.  Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas 

odor, or flame from any area other than the 

burner (leaks). If leaks are detected, shut off 

the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reas-

semble the loose connection(s) using pipe joint 

compound until burner system is leak free.

4.  When the burner is tested and leak free, observe 

the individual tongues of flame on the burner.  

Make sure that all ports are clear and produc-

ing flame evenly across the burner. If any ports 

appear blocked, clear them by removing the 

burner manifold and reaming the ports with a 

modified paper clip or other suitable tool.

5.  When finished testing, turn the gas shutoff 

valve OFF to extinguish all flames.

ADDING PAN MATERIAL

Open the bag of glowing embers and spread it 

evenly over the burner ramp. 

INSTALLING THE GRATE AND LOGS

1.  Slide grate steps onto the ends of the grate as 

shown in Figure 7.

2.  Place the grate over the burner pan where the 

two outer horizontal supports on the grate fit 

into the two pan positioning tabs on the outer 

edges of the pan.

3.  Place two front logs onto grate (see Figure 8).
4.  Place back log on grate steps  (see Figure 8).
5.  Figure 8 and Figure 9 on page 9 show a recom-

mended log arrangement, however you may 

arrange the logs as you wish. Leave as much 

open space as possible to minimize flame im-

pingement and sooting. 

Note:

 Logs may chip if 

they are handled roughly or if hit together while 

being placed.

5.  Place ember chunks onto bottom portion of ramp 

burner using Figure 9, page 9, as an example.
