Step 1: Deck/Patio Base Mounting Assembly
(Fig. 3)
1. Turn base on edge and insert the 2’ post. Align the notches in the
post with the notches in the base. IMPORTANT: Close tolerances
may require you to tap the top of the post to seat it completely in
the base socket which will then align the bolt slots.
2. Fasten post to base with four ¼ - 20 x ¾" Hex bolts, washers and
Kep nuts. Follow exact placement of washers as indicated.
Tighten securely.
3. Attach the tube clip with the 8 - 32 self-tapping screw either on the
right or left side of the base depending on the direction of your gas
supply line.
Step 2: Deck/Patio Mounting Installation
(Fig. 4)
Position the patio base at the desired location on a deck or patio.
CAUTION: Be certain there are no combustible materials above,
behind, left or right closer than 18" away.
2. Run the gas supply line into the post from the bottom to reach the
access door and bend it 90° to exit the base at either notch. The
patio base is notched on two sides to allow the gas line to exit
either right or left.
3. Secure the gas line with the tube clip. (Option: On a raised deck if
the gas supply line is to be run straight up into the post from be-
low use the tube clip to attach the gas line to the deck for support.
4. At the access door connect a 3/8" flare coupling (not supplied by
MHP) to the gas supply line and Stainless Steel tubing. Position
the tubing in the top notch of the post. Bend the tubing at the top
end to match the Feed Line of the grill valve.
Do
not kink the
tubing.
TUBE BENDING
: For proper bending of the stainless steel tubing,
see
page 26
for bending instructions.
Step 3: Attaching The Grill Head Bottom To The Deck/Patio
and In-Ground Post
(Fig. 1 & Fig. 2)
1. To make the post-to-flange connection easier, remove the grill
burner by taking out the small clip located under the bottom grill
head. This will allow access to hold the Kep nuts inside the post.
2. Set the grill head bottom carefully in place, align holes and use the
¼ - 20 x ¾" bolts and ¼-20 Kep nuts to attach the grill flange to
the post.
Please check to be sure that all parts are included before
proceeding. Contact your dealer if any parts are missing.

The grill head should not be attached to the post until the base
has been mounted to the deck or patio.
1. Mark the location of the four holes at the outside corners of the
patio base and drill four holes. The base will be fastened down
with lag bolts (not supplied by MHP) after you have connected the
gas supply line. The top post notch is the front and the rear ac-
cess door will be in the back of the grill.
