STEP SIX: Leakage Checking and adjusting
1.
Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
2.
Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive
leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. If a leak is found,
turn the NG gas valve off and do not use the grill. Contact a qualified
gas technician to make repairs.
Warning:
The outdoor cooking gas appliance and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 0.5 psi
(3.5 kPa).
The outdoor cooking gas appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
3.
The igniter battery is not factory installed. A “AA” size alkaline
battery is located in the accessory box on the grill grate.
Install battery at this time following the instructions in
“Replacing the Igniter Battery” section.
4.
The Ng regulator is adjusted by manufacture, no need to make any
adjustment.
5.
Check and Adjust the Burners(See page 15).
6.
Remove the CSA LP lable in the door and put on the CSA NG lable.
(Part 5 in the NG conversion kit)
Record Conversion
:
The model/serial number plate is located on the right-hand side of the
grill. With a permanent marker, check the box next to “Natural gas” and
mark through “LP.” In the last page of the Use and Care Guide, write
“Converted to Natural Gas.” Also record the conversion date and the
technician/company that performed the conversion. NOTE: keep with
package containing the literature.
Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting
necessary. If Chang LP gas to NG, please adjust the burners.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
NOTE:
The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing
the grates and flame tamers.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models)
should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP
gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates
not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there
is too much air. Some yellow tips on flames when the burner is
set to HI setting are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot
deposits appear. The flames should be approximately 1” (2.5 cm)
high.
1” (2.5 cm)
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,
etc., and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters
as needed.
