PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
Consult a qualifi ed professional installer / licensed contractor.
The in-ground post is designed primarily for installation with
a permanent underground gas supply.
To gain access to the inside of the post, unscrew and carefully
open the access plate on the rear of the post using a medium
Phillips-head screwdriver. Retain the screws.
ROUTE GAS SUPPLY (UNDERGROUND METHOD)
Note: This section addresses an underground gas supply
setup. To connect through the rear of the post,
reference the ROUTE FLEX CONNECTOR section of
PATIO-MOUNT INSTALLATION, and do not perform
the steps until after: attaching the extension post, and
installing the post / pouring the concrete.
1. After running the underground gas supply line to the
planned grill location, dig a hole for the post and extension
approximately 18" deep and 10-12" in diameter.
Note: Run the gas supply line up from the bottom of
the hole (a little off center) so that it reaches to
approximately 4" above ground level.
Note: The actual depth of the hole should be such that
the cooking surface is 34-35" above ground level.
2. Verify that the gas supply line fi ts through the gas line
clearance hole in the bottom of the post (see Fig. 17-
2 ). The
clearance hole is the larger of the two holes in the bottom
of the post and is off center.
3. Verify that the fl ex connector coming from the inside of
the post will connect properly with the gas supply line.
