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.
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.
GENERAL USE OF THE MAIN BURNER
Each main burner is rated at 10,000 BTU/hr. The main grill
burners encompass the entire cooking area and are side
ported. The igniter knobs are located on the lower center
portion of the valve panel. Each rotary igniter is labeled on
the control panel.
Leak Testing
GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at
the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness 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 “OFF” position,
and turn on the gas supply.
2. Check all connections from the LP 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.
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.
