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, or
immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.
BEFORE TESTING:
Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never 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 ULPG units, check with a full cylinder. The valve panel must be removed to check
the valves and fittings First, remove the knobs. Next, pull the drip pan tray forward slightly to access the
screws that affix the front panel to the unit. Using a screwdriver, remover the screws. Finally, gently pull the
panel downward and out, making sure that you are not pulling out the wires. Remove the screws which hold
the service panel in place.
TO TEST:
Make sure that all control valves are in the "OFF"
position. Turn the gas supply "ON". Check all
connections from the supply line, or ULPG cylinder
up to and including the manifold. Soap bubbles
will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is
present, immediately turn off gas supply, tighten
any leaking connections, turn gas on, and
recheck. Check all the gas connections at the
base of the control valves where they screw into
the manifold pipe.
To check rotisserie burner and safety valve, the
burner must be lit, then leak test the connections
located behind the service panel. If you cannot
stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call
your local company, or the dealer from whom you
purchased the grill. Only those parts
recommended by the manufacturer should be
used on the Grill. Substitution can void the
warranty.
Do not use the grill until all connections have
been checked and do not leak.
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
valve. Spray all the fitting. Bubbles indicate leaks.
