LEAK TESTING
GENERAL
1. Although gas connections on the grill are
leak tested prior to shipment, a complete
gas tightness check must be performed at
the installation site. Periodically check the
whole system for leaks following the
procedures listed below.
If the smell of gas is detected at anytime, you
should immediately check the entire system for
leaks.
BEFORE TESTING
Make sure all packing materials have been
removed from the grill, including the burner tie-
down straps.
WARNING
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each
use
.
Do not use the grill until all connections have
been checked and do not leak.
Do not smoke while leak testing.
Never leak test with an open flame.
Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent
and one part water. You will need a spray bottle,
brush, or rag to apply the solution to the fittings.
TO TEST
1. Make sure the control valves are in the “OFF”
position, and turn on the gas supply.
2. Check all connections from the natural gas
regulator and supply valve up to and including
the connection to the manifold pipe assembly
(the pipe that goes to the burners). Soap
bubbles will appear where a leak is present.
3. If a leak is present, immediately turn off the gas
supply and tighten leaky fittings.
4. Turn the gas back on and recheck.
5. Should the gas continue to leak from any of the
fittings, turn off the gas supply and contact
customer service at 1-800-554-5799.
Only those parts recommended by the
manufacturer should be used on the grill.
Substitutions will void the warranty
.
GAS FLOW CHECK
Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the
factory prior to shipment. However, variations in the
local gas supply may make it necessary to adjust
the burners.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow
tips, excessive noise or lifting.
If any of these conditions exist, first check to see if
the burner is blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs,
etc.
It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy water
near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray
all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.
