UNPACKING UNIT:
Product Inspection
:
A final inspection of your product occurs at the factory to ensure a quality product is packaged.
Please re-check for possible shipping damage immediately after unpacking your grill. If the appliance is found to have some
damage, contact your dealer immediately as often the shipping carrier will have a timeframe to report damage. Please also
save the packaging material the product came with as that is at times inspected by the shipping carrier.
Caution: Do not leave the unit under the sun with the protective film on for a long period of time as it will make the
film difficult to remove and/or leave markings on the materials which are not covered by the warranty.
Your Blaze Series Appliance comes pre-assembled and requires very little setup. We do however; recommend the use of
professional help during the installation of your unit as improper installation may affect your warranty. Remove the unit
from the box along with all accessories and check that no damage has occurred to the unit or any parts. Remove all
packaging materials, labels and protective plastic film before you start cooking
.
Burners: Check the burner tubes and remove any obstructions that may be in the ports or holes. Using cold water and a
brush will be sufficient. Make sure all foreign particles are removed from the burner before use. Make sure the air shutter
on the burners is slightly opened (to about 1/8" for NG and 1/4" for LP). When finished ensure that the burners are aligned
with the valve orifice and seated in the bracket slot. This is accomplished by first placing the burner tube shutter hole
securely over the valve orifice and ensuring the male post on the burner rests in the corresponding slots in the rear of the
grill chassis. Failure to do so could result in a fire and injury
Gas Connections
Natural Gas Requirements
Connect a suitable natural gas flex connector to the grill regulator located on the rear right corner of the appliance. It
is recommended to use a flex connector with a minimum of a ½” diameter or larger.
Sealing all non-flared fittings with thread sealant or Teflon tape.
Ensure the flex connector is protected from sharp edges, heat, aggressive surfaces, and kinking.
Check the appliance controls to ensure all control valves are in the full OFF position.
Turn on the main gas supply and check all connections for leaks using soapy water as described in the leak testing
procedure section.
The regulator used must be set for 4” water column and is for use with Natural gas only. Note: Most low pressure
regulators have a directional arrow indicating the direction in which the gas must travel. Ensure the arrow is
pointing in the direction of the grill.
An installer supplied gas shutoff valve must be installed in an accessible place.
Liquid Propane (LP) Gas and Tank Requirement
If your BLAZE
Grill is for a Liquid Propane application, a LP regulator set for 11” WC must be used and is for
