NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION
The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA
B149.1 or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.
1. This gas appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at the test pressures in excess of 1/2
psi (3.5 kPa).
2. This appliance 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 pres-
sures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
If the gas grill is factory built for Natural Gas, the regulator supplied is set for 4” water column.
The regulator is convertible to 10 in wc (2.49 kPa) for plumb-in system LP application. Do not use with
a 20-lb LP cylinder. Make sure that the regulator is set for the correct gas type. To check, remove the
brass hex cap. You will nd the conversion plastic pin attached to the cap to the underside of the cap.
If the disc (1/2 in. diameter) of the pin is close to the cap, then the regulator is set for Natural Gas. If
the disc is at the tip of the pin, away from the brass cap, the regulator is set for system LP application.
To convert to Natural Gas, remove the plastic conversion pin and invert and replace it back in a man-
ner such that the disc is close to the brass cap. For both Natural and LP, the maximum inlet pressure
is 14 in wc (3.5 kPa).
A typical Natural Gas installation is shown below. Make sure that the factory-supplied regulator
is used and installed with the arrow mark on the regulator pointing towards the gas grill. Do not use
any replacement regulator other than that specied by DELTA HEAT. Use only pipe sealants that are
approved for use with Natural and LP gases. An installer-supplied gas shutoff valve must be installed
in an accessible location.

BURNER FLAME / AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
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 ames of the U-burners should be visually
checked. Flames should be blue and stable with little
to no yellow tips, no excessive noise or lifting. If any of
these conditions exist, remove the burner and check to
see if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt,
debris, spider webs, etc. If it is clear, the air shutter may
need to be adjusted.
Before adjusting the air shutter, verify that the correct orice size for the gas type was in-
stalled.
ADJUSTING THE GRILL BURNER FLAME
The amount of air is controlled by a sheet metal cup at the inlet of the burner called an air shut-
ter. It is locked in place by a set screw which must be loosened prior to lighting the burner for adjust-
ment. The air shutter adjustment screws are accessible with a phillips screwdriver. Loosen the lock
screw of the air shutter. Adjust according to the following directions. Be careful as the burner and
other grill parts may be very hot!
• If the ame is yellow, indicating insufcient air, turn the air shutter counter-clockwise to allow
more air to the burner.
• If the ame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, indicating too much air, turn the air
shutter clockwise.
Remember to tighten the set screw prior to re-installing the burner.
ENSURE THAT THE BURNERS ARE SITTING PROPERLY ON THE ORIFICES BEFORE LIGHT-
ING THE BURNERS.

LOCATING THE GRILL
This gas appliance is designed and certied for outdoor use only. Do not locate this grill under
unprotected overhead combustible surfaces. When installed under overhead combustible surfaces,
a certied ventilating hood wider than the appliance shall be installed with a minimum distance of 36
inches above the cooking surface.
NOTE: Caution should be taken when grills are used near glass, vinyl siding or other tempera-
ture sensitive construction materials. In some cases it may be necessary to increase the clearance
around the grill to avoid damage to vinyl siding. Check with the manufacturer of the siding material for
details.
Do not operate the grill inside a building, garage, recreation vehicle or any enclosed area. When
choosing an area, consider exposure to wind, proximity to trafc paths and length of gas supply line.
Keep gas supply lines as short as possible to reduce pressure drop. Keep the grill away from windy
area but keep the grill in a well-ventilated area. Do not obstruct the ow of combustion and ventila-
tion air around the grill. The supporting edges of the grill must be located level and at. The counter
should also be leveled.
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
A minimum clearance of 12” from the sides and 12” from the back of the grill to adjacent verti-
cal combustible construction must be maintained.
DÉGAGEMENT DE TOUTE CONSTRUCTION COMBUSTIBLE
Il faut maintenir une distance minimum de 12 po (30.48 cm) sur les côtés et de 12 po (30.48 cm) sur
l’arrière du gril par rapport aux constructions combustibles verticales adjacentes.
CLEARANCE TO NONCOMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
A minimum clearance of 3” from the back of the grill above cooking surface to non-combustible
construction is required to allow the grill hood to open completely.
A minimum of 6” clearance to the sides of the grill above cooking surface to non-combustible
construction is recommended to provide space for the rotisserie motor and the spit rod. The grill can
be installed directly next to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface.
DÉGAGEMENT DE TOUTE CONSTRUCTION INCOMBUSTIBLE
Une distance minimum de 3 po (7.62 cm) de l’arrière du gril au-dessus de toute surface de cuisson
à la construction incombustible est prescrite pour permettre à la hotte d’ouvrir complètement. Une
distance minimum de 6 po (15.24 cm) des côtés du gril au-dessus de la surface de cuisson à la con-
struction incombustible est recommandée pour prévoir de l’espace pour le moteur de la rôtissoire et
la poignée des broches de cuisson. Le gril peut être installé directement à proximité d’une construc-
tion incombustible en-dessous de la surface de cuisson.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
The DELTA HEAT Grill is produced fully assembled and tested in the factory and requires no
major assembly in the eld. For the purpose of safe shipping and transit, some parts such as the
briquette trays and rotisserie components are wrapped inside the grill and require minor assembly.
Check to ensure that all packaging material have been removed prior to grill operation.
TO INSTALL BRIQUETTES TRAYS
1. Put briquette trays into the grill above the burner as shown by lining up the tab with the chan-
nel of the briquette tray.
2. Then put the stainless steel grates over the briquette trays.
