CONVERTING THE GAS TYPE
Fig. 27-2
CAUTION: Make sure the grill is at a safe temperature
and isolated from gas and electrical
supplies before beginning.
For your safety, exercise caution, and make sure you
have adequate hand protection, such as gloves, when
handling metal parts.
CONVERT LABEL
This grill comes from the factory confi gured for one type
of gas as marked on the label behind the control panel.
When the grill is converted, the label for the new gas
(included at original shipping) MUST be applied over
the old label mentioned above.
CONVERT REGULATOR
The gas regulator, located behind the control panel, must
be set for the type of gas used to fuel the grill. To check
the regulator setting, remove the cap in the center of the
regulator (Fig. 27-1, A). Holding the cap vertical (see
Fig. 27-1, B), the letters at the bottom of the plastic stalk
indicate the gas type for which the regulator is currently
confi gured.
If the text on the bottom of the regulator stalk does not
match the gas type connected to the grill, remove the
stalk from the cap, invert, and replace into center of cap.
Replace cap on the regulator, screwing down until snug.
CONVERT GAS ORIFICES
When converting the grill to a different gas type, each
burner’s orifi ce must be replaced with the corresponding
orifi ce for the new gas.
See
MODEL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE, Table 1 at the
beginning of this document to determine the proper
orifi ce sizes for each burner.
See the following section for details on orifi ce
conversion.
Important: It is critical to the operation of each
burner that its orifi ce be fully inserted
into the center of its orifi ce opening.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS OVERHEATING WILL OCCUR
IF A NATURAL-GAS ORIFICE IS USED WITH
PROPANE GAS.
CONNECT TO NEW GAS SUPPLY
Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.
(Additional components may be needed for your specifi c
setup.) Be sure to leak test at all connections.
CONVERT/CHECK MAIN BURNER ORIFICES
1. Remove the cooking grid and fl avor grid from
above the burner you are working and set them
aside.
2. Locate the burner. Slightly pinch and remove the
burner clip (located over the rear center of the
burner) from the burner support and set aside.
3. Carefully lift the burner from the burner support
and out from the hole in the forward fi re wall (see
Fig.
27-2).
4. Use a
3
/
8
" hex nut driver to remove the exposed
orifi ce (Fig. 27-3). Check orifi ce. If needed, replace
it with the correct orifi ce for the new gas.
5. Replace the burner by first sliding the open
cylindrical end of the burner around the orifi ce,
enveloping it and centering on it, then lower the
back end anchor pegs into the anchor peg holes.
Note: It is critical to the continued safe functioning
of the burner that the orifi ce is centered and
completely inside the burner gas inlet.
6. Re-install the burner clip around the burner and
into the holes in the burner support.
7. Replace the fl avor grid and then the cooking grid
so that the cut-out section is in front.
8. Repeat these steps for each main burner.
