Gas Requirements & Connections
Your grill is setup to use either propane (LP) or natural gas (NAT). Before proceeding, ensure the unit is
fitted for the gas supply to be used. Connecting to an improper gas type will result in poor performance
and increased risk of damage or injury. Do not attempt to operate the grill on any gas other than what the
grill is orificed for and what the regulator is set for. Should you need to convert your grill for use with a
different gas type, make sure you use the conversion kit to convert the grill to the proper gas type.
A conversion should always be performed by a qualified technician!
The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, to the
national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1a-1988. Installation in Canada must be in accordance with the Standard
CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation or CAN/CGA- B 149,2, Propane Installation Code.
CONNECTING THE GRILL TO A PROPANE (LP) GAS CYLINDER
1.
Before proceeding, ensure the unit is fitted for LP gas.
2.
Always secure the propane tank in the tank locator hole in the bottom pan of the cylinder-compartment.
(Portable gas grills only.)
3.
Always confirm that all burner control knobs are in the OFF position before activating the gas supply.
4.
Always connect the gas supply regulator by first inserting the nipple of the valve coupling into the tank
valve and then tightening the connection collar by turning it clockwise with one hand while holding the
regulator with the other.
5.
Manifold pressure with LP (operating): 10" W.C., (non-operating): 11.2" W.C.
L.P. TANK REQUIREMENTS
Use only a standard 20 lb. (5 gal) Propane gas cylinder (18 1/4" H x 12 1/4" dia.). The tank must be installed in
the upright position. Do not use a dented or rusty L.P. tank as it may be hazardous and should be checked by
your L.P, supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve.
The L.P. gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications for L.P, gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT). The cylinder must be provided with a shut off valve terminating in an
L.P. gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as applicable, for connection
type Qccl in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet
connection ANSI/CGA-V-I.
L.P. GAS CONNECTION:
Your VINTAGE Grill for use with L.P. gas comes equipped with its own
regulator, which MUST NOT be removed. There is also a secondary high
capacity, hose/regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. L.P.
cylinder. The L.R gas pressure regulator and hose supplied with this unit must
be used without alteration. If this assembly needs to be replaced use only the
type specified by VINTAGE Grills for this appliance. 30" grills require a
90,000 BTU min. regulator/hose assembly. All other sizes require a 160,000
BTU min. two-stage regulator/hose assembly.
1) Remove the rear panel from tile BBQ to gain access to the regulator and Gas connection point.
2) Attach a 1/2" male-to-female elbow to the regulator as shown in Fig. 2.
3) Fasten the hose connection to a 1/2" x 3/8" flare fitting connected to the elbow as shown in Fig. 2.
!!!WARNING!!!
Never use an unregulated gas
line to the appliance.
!!!WARNING!!!
Ensure that the gas supply hose
does not come into contact with
the grill body or the heat shield.
