NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION AND SETUP
Turn on the gas supply, ignite the burner, and
test at all connections for leaks using a spray
bottle and soapy water solution. Spray
around the entire circumference of each metal
fitting. If bubbles appear, a leak is present.
Turn off the gas and tighten at all
connections. Repeat until no leaks are
present. If a leak persists, turn off the gas
supply and contact your local gas company
or the Yardbird Customer Experience Team.
NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS
Before operating the appliance, conduct
a leak test on all hose and fitting connections
to ensure the appliance is safe to use
