Natural Gas Safety Instructions
xYour grill is designed to be natural gas convertible, at a pressure of 7" water column (W.C.)(1/4 psig or
1.75 kpa), regulated at the residential meter. Check with your gas utility company for local gas pressure
and with your local municipality for building code requirements. If your residential gas line pressure has not
been regulated to 7" W.C., contact your local gas utility company for professional assistance.
xYou must use the gas pressure regulator supplied with this appliance. This regulator is set for an outlet
pressure of 4" W.C.
xIt is recommended that a shut off valve be installed at the gas supply source outdoors. Install the valve at a
point after the gas pipe exits the outside wall and before the quick disconnect hose, or install it at the
point before the gas line piping enters the ground. See Figure 1˄Page #8).
xYou must use pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape that’s resistant to the action of natural gas on all
male pipe threads when making connections.
xDisconnect your gas grill from its fuel source when testing the gas supply at high pressures. This gas grill
and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply pipe system during any pressure
testing greater than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
xTurn off your gas grill when testing the gas supply at low pressures. During any pressure testing at
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa), you must close the individual manual shut off valve to
isolate the grill from the gas supply pipe system.
xThe quick disconnect is attached to a 3/8-inch NPT thread from the gas source. The quick disconnect fitting
is a hand-operated device that automatically shuts off the flow of gas from the source when it is
disconnected.
xThe quick disconnect fitting can be installed horizontally or pointing downward. DO NOT install the fitting
with the opening pointing upward because the fitting could collect water and debris.
xDust covers (plastic plugs) are provided with the quick disconnect to help keep the open ends clean while
disconnected.
xThe outdoor connector must be firmly attached to a ridged permanent construction.
xThe quick disconnect MUST BE installed above ground.
xWARNING: Do not route the 10-foot quick disconnect hose under a deck. The hose must be visible and
inspected prior to each grill use.
Gas Line Piping
xIf you are using less than 50 feet of gas line, use a 5/8" O.D. tube. For lengths greater than 50 feet, use
one size larger.
xGas piping may be copper tubing (type K or L), polyethylene plastic tube (with a minimum wall thickness
of 0.062 in.), or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe.
xCopper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 ft.3
of gas.
xPlastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use.
xGas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may corrode the piping, must be protected
against corrosion in an approved manner.
xUnderground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.
Test Connections
All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for leaks in accordance with local codes and all listed
procedures in the latest edition of ANSI Z21.58-2018/CSA 1.6-2018.

Preparation:
Before beginning conversion, make sure all parts are present. Place the grill on flat, level surface.
Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF position, LP tank valve is closed, and tank is
disconnected from regulator and removed from the grill.
DANGER
Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the
area while you check for gas leaks. This will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious
bodily injury or death and damage to property.
WARNING
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, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CSA B149.1, or the Propane Storage and Handling Code, CSA B149.2, or the Standard for
Recreational Vehicles, ANSI A119.2/NFPA 1192, and CSA Z240 RV Series, Recreational Vehicle
Code, as applicable.
