CONNECT THE GAS SUPPLY
For household propane or natural gas units:
1. Route the flex connector to the gas supply stub.
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 installed in-line:
• Install the supplied flare-to-NPT adapter to the gas supply
(NPT) using a pipe joint compound resistant to all gasses
(see Fig. 21-1, A). Tighten securely.
• Connect the flex connector to the flare-to-NPT adapter (see
Fig. 21-1, A). Tighten securely.
If shut-off valve is connected to end of gas supply stub:
• Connect the flex connector to the shut-off valve (flare) (see
Fig. 21-1, B). 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.
RECONNECT POWER SUPPLY WIRES
CAUTION: IMPROPERLY CONNECTED WIRES WILL CAUSE
DAMAGE TO THE GRILL AND MAY RESULT
IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY.
To connect the power supply box, connect the converter harness
to the power supply as shown in Fig. 21-2.
Important: Apply dielectric grease to the male connectors prior to
making any wire connections.
RE-SECURE ACCESS PLATE
Carefully replace the access plate using the four screws, ensuring
all interior components are properly oriented inside of the grill.
Ensure the power supply cord (and flex connector if applicable)
coming out of the rear of the post are properly situated and the
plastic bushing/grommet pieces are secure in place.
CONNECT POWER CORD
Connect the cord coming from the rear access plate to a 120VAC
(15 AMP minimum) GFCI GROUNDED 3-wire receptacle.
The GFCI receptacle must be a WEATHER-PROOF IN-USE
COVERED RECEPTACLE.
