INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2. When connecting the regulator/burner valve assembly to the tank valve, turn the large
plastic nut clockwise until it stops.
3. Gas will not flow unless the plastic nut is completely connected.
4. HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
b. Hand Disassembly:
1. Make certain the tank valve and all the appliance valves are in the "OFF" position.
2. Turn the large plastic nut counterclockwise until it is disassembled.
3. HAND LOOSEN ONLY.
c. Excess Flow Control
The propane regulator assembly incorporates an excess flow device designed to supply the
grill with sufficient gas flow under normal conditions yet control excess gas flow.
Rapid changes in pressure can trigger the excess flow device providing a low flame and low
temperature. If the tank valve is turned open to allow gas flow while a burner valve is open,
the surge of pressure will cause the device to activate. The device will remain closed until the
pressure is equalized. This should occur within 5 seconds.
To ensure this does not cause difficulty in lighting the grill, follow these instructions:
1. Make sure all burner valves are "OFF".
2. Open the tank valve and wait 5 seconds.
d. Temperature-Activated Shut-Off
The large plastic nut on the regulator assembly is designed in coordination with a check valve
in the tank valve to shut off the flow of gas when exposed to temperatures between
240-300℉. In the event of a fire or hose break, one of the safeguards will function to control
or stop the flow of gas from the propane tank. Never attempt to use damaged equipment.
IMPORTANT: Before using a fresh tank of gas, please check leakage around the
connections according to section "Checking Gas Leaks" on page 23 and make sure
there is no leakage or vapor accumulation in the cabinet. Make sure all openings
around side walls are not blocked.
IMPORTANT: Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in
use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with
the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
Gas Requirements
The grill is set and tested at the factory for use with LP gas only. However, this grill is
natural gas convertible and can be used at the same rating. The rating plate is located on the
inside panel of the left door.
