GAS CONNECTIONS
This appliance has been factory pre-set to
use either Propane Gas (LP) or Natural Gas
(NG). It is critical that the gas you use
matches the gas that the grill has been set
up for. You can verify this by checking the
label mounted on the right rear side of the
appliance.
Ensure that the gas supplied meets
minimum pressure requirements, as shown
below, under full load:

Both the regulator and the manifold orifices
have been set for the type of gas specified
on the label. If it is desired to convert to a
different type of gas, a gas conversion kit
must be obtained from LazyMan Inc. or
from one of its dealers, and must be
installed by a qualified technician.
NATURAL GAS:
LazyMan Inc. recommends that only a
qualified professional performs the
required gas hook-ups on this product.
To ensure satisfactory performance, the gas
supply line must be sized to accommodate
the TOTAL BTU requirements of all the gas
fired equipment that will be connected to
this line. Minimum pipe size should be 1/2”
I.D., however, 3/4" I.D. is recommended for
the long runs and best performance. For
this, a 3/4" FIP x 1/2” MIP reducer fitting
will be required (not supplied).
Calculate the total BTU output of all appliances
that will be attached to this line and use the
chart entitled “Gas Supply Line Runs” to
determine allowable run line distances. Failure
to meet these minimum run requirements will
reduce the performance of the appliance and
any other grills/appliances connected to this
line. In general, always keep the supply line run
as SHORT as possible.
The longer the gas run line, the lower the
gas pressure and the smaller number of
BTU’s the line can handle.

A gas shut-off valve must be installed between
the gas appliances and the gas line in an easily
accessible location. This valve should be
installed by a qualified plumber.
All pipe joints must be sealed with threading
tape or pipe joint compound. The first 2 threads
should be free and clear of any compound to
avoid the compound from entering into the
pipe. Never use threading compound on flare
fittings.
LIQUID PROPANE GAS:
Grills set up for LP gas come equipped with an
LP hose/regulator assembly
for connection to a
standard
20 lb (5 gal) LP gas cylinder. All
