ALL GAS CONNECTION POINTS SHOULD BE TESTED FOR LEAKS AFTER INSTALLATION PRIOR
TO FIRST USE OF THE GAS APPLIANCE(S).
-Before installing an appliance in any island cut out, make sure that the opening is not bigger than the outside frame
of the appliance unit. The appliance should rest on the lip of the frame.
-Pay careful attention to the location of the gas line. It should be routed away from sources of heat, sharp edges, and
aggressive surfaces and should make as few bends as possible. Ensure the gas line connection will be accessible
when appliance is installed. A safety shutoff valve is required at this gas connection point.
-Before installing the grill into the island cutout, the main burner cotter pins may be removed for convenience of
service, adjustments, and maintenance in the future. These are accessible from the outside rear of the grill.
If the main burner cotter pins are removed before installing, the main burners must be double checked for
the correct placement in the grill before operation. 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 rear of the burner rests in the
corresponding slot in the grill chassis. Failure to do so could result in a fire and injury.
If the outdoor kitchen countertop will overhang the face of the island, notching out the two front countertop edges will
be necessary to allow the grill to slide flush against the outer front wall to the outdoor kitchen. Due to differing personal
preferences of the size of the notch out, this is recommended to be done at the point of installation so that the
consumer can dictate their preference.
Slide the appliance into the cut out and then attach the gas line.
Be very careful not to kink the gas line when lowering the appliance into the cut out.
Keep your fingers away from where the appliance will be supported on counter. Your fingers could become
trapped and serious injury could occur.
Check to make sure the appliance is level and is supported around the entire outside edge. If the appliance is
not level or is unstable, use non-combustible shims under the outside lip to stabilize it.
Perform the leak test procedure as described earlier in this manual.
