Gas Conversion:
No attempt shall be made to convert the grill
from the gas specied on the model/serial rating
plate for use with a different gas type without
consulting the serving gas supplier. The con-
version kits specied must be used.
Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this
grill must be used. The inlet (supply) pressure
to the regulator should be as follows for proper
operation:
LP Gas:
Operating pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (27.9 cm to
35.5 cm) WCP
Natural Gas:
Operating pressure: 4" (10.2 cm) WCP Inlet
(supply) pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5
cm) WCP maximum.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure
about the inlet (supply) pressure.
Burner Requirements for High Altitude
Input ratings shown on the model//serial rating
plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6
m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings
are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft
(304.8 m) above sea level. Orice conversion
is required. See “Assistance or Service” sec-
tion to order.
Gas Supply Line Pressure Testing
Testing above ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5
cm) WCP (gauge):
The grill and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures greater than ½ psig
(3.5 kPa).
Testing below ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5
cm) WCP (gauge) or lower:
The grill must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5 kPa).
