GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at
the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas leak test check
must be performed at the installation site due to possible
mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly
being applied to the unit. 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 that all packing material is removed from the grill
including tie-down straps.
DO NOT SMOKE WHILE LEAK TESTING.
NEVER PERFORM 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. For the initial leak test, make
sure the L.P. cylinder is 80% full.
TO TEST
1.
Make sure the control valves are in the “
○
” position, and
turn on the gas supply.
2.
Check all connections from the L.P. 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 the 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
1-800-913-8999 in USA. Language spoken: English,
French, Spanish 8 a.m.-5 p.m., PST. Monday-Friday.
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should
be used on the grill.
Substitution will void the warranty. Do not use the grill until all
connections have been checked and do not leak.
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. The flames of the
burners should be visually checked.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips,
excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist,
check to see if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by
dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. If you have any questions
regarding flame stability, please call customer service
1-800-913-8999 in USA . Language spoken: English, French,
Spanish 8 a.m.-5 p.m., PST. Monday-Friday.
Leak Testing
ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY L.P.
TANK CHANGE
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use.
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.
Your grill is ready to use!
