IMPORTANT:
•
Verify fuel gas type. If the available fuel does not match the nameplate specification, exchange the
hotplate for the correct type.
•
The appliance and its individual manual shutoff valve must be disconnected from supply system piping
during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
•
The 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 at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
INSTALLING THE GAS GRLL
Refer to the nameplate. Verify the fuel type and pressure, which must match the nameplate specifications.
Connecting the hotplate to the wrong fuel type and/or pressure will compromise the safety and/or performance
of the appliance.
BE SURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.
•
The grill must be placed in its final operational position and leveled front-to-back and side-to-side, with
a spirit level, prior to beginning the gas piping installation. Re-check the level of the unit at the
conclusion of the gas piping installation.
•
Each gas grill is supplied with a separate gas pressure regulator, which must be installed on the
manifold pipe protruding from the rear of the grill. Ensure that the regulator is installed such that the
flow arrow stamped on the body of the regulator points toward the grill.
•
Failure to properly install the supplied regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.
•
A moisture trap (drip leg) consisting of a tee, 4” nipple pointing down and cap must be installed
upstream of the gas pressure regulator.
•
A manual gas shut-off valve may be required by local codes and is, in any case, strongly
recommended. The shut-off valve must be installed between the gas supply piping and the gas
pressure regulator.
