CONNECT THE GAS SUPPLY
For household propane or natural gas units:

2. Turn OFF the gas supply at the source.
3. A shut-off valve is required within 6 feet of the unit.
If shut-off valve is connected to end of gas supply stub:
• Connect the flex connector to the shut-off valve (see Fig.
20-1). Tighten securely.
If shut-off valve is installed in-line:
• Install the supplied flare adapter to the gas supply using a
pipe joint compound resistant to all gasses (see Fig. 20-1).
Tighten securely.
• Connect the flex connector to the flare adapter (see Fig.
20-1). Tighten securely.
For propane cylinders:
For connecting a propane unit to a portable propane tank, read
the safety warnings and follow the instructions in the section SAFE
USE AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPANE GAS CYLINDERS.
Important: An appropriate adapter will be required to connect
the existing flex connector to an L.P. regulator/hose
assembly.
LEAK TEST
Turn all burner control knobs to the OFF position. Turn the gas
supply on. Then carefully check all gas connections for leaks with
a brush and half-soap/half-water solution before lighting. NEVER
USE A MATCH OR OPEN FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAKS.
RE-SECURE ACCESS PLATE
Carefully replace the access plate using the four screws, ensuring
all interior components are properly oriented inside of the grill. If
applicable, ensure the flex connector coming out of the rear of the
post is properly situated and the grommet piece is secure in place.
