INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LEAK TESTING - GENERAL
Although gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete
leak test must be performed at the installation site. Before each use, check all gas
connections for leaks using the procedures listed below.
If the smell of gas is detected at any time, you should immediately check the entire
system for leaks.
BEFORE TESTING
Make sure all packing materials have been removed from the grill, including the
burner tie-down straps.
WARNING
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. Do not use the grill until all connections
have been checked and do not leak. Do not smoke while leak testing. Never leak test with an
open flame.
Make a 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 Liquid Propane cylinders is full.
TO TEST
1.
Turn the burner valves off.
2.
Turn the Liquid Propane cylinder valve counterclockwise to open the valve.
3.
Apply a soap solution to all gas fittings. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak
is present.
4.
If a leak is present, immediately turn the gas supply "OFF" and tighten leaky
fittings.
5.
Turn the gas back "ON" and recheck.
6.
Should the gas continue to leak from any of the fittings, turn the gas supply
"OFF" and contact customer service.
7.
If there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to use.
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill.
Substitutions will void the warranty.
