Natural Gas Connection
Natural Gas Model only:
Connecting Natural Gas To Your Grill
Check all connections for NG Leaks
Never
test for leaks with an open flame. Prior to first use
and at the beginning of each season, you must check
for gas leaks. Follow these three steps:
Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF position,
then turn the gas ON at the source.
Apply the soap solution to all gas connections
indicated by the arrows. See
Fig.3
. If bubbles
appear in the soap solution the connections are
not properly sealed. Check each fitting and tighten
or repair as necessary.

Your natural gas grill is designed to operate on natural
gas only, at a pressure of 4" water column (W.C.) with
natural gas regulator. The gas pressure Regulator
supplied with this appliance must be used. This
Regulator is set for an outlet pressure of 4" W.C.
Install a Shutoff Valve at the gas supply source out-
doors at a point after the gas pipe exits the outside wall
and before the quick-disconnect hose. Or install it at
the point before the gas line piping enters the ground.
See
Fig. 2
.
Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape resistant
to the action of natural gas must be used on all male
pipe thread connections.
Disconnect your gas grill from fuel source when the
gas supply is being tested at high pressures. This gas
grill and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nected from the gas supply pipe system during any
pressure testing of that system at pressure in excess
of 1/2 psi (3.5kpa).
Turn off your gas grill when the gas supply is being
tested at low pressures. The grill must be isolated
from the gas supply pipe system by closing its indi-
vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test-
ing of the gas supply pipe system at pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kpa).
