INSTALLATION
Gas Hook-up
LP
cart hook-up
Grills orificed for use with combustible gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator
assem bly for connection to a standard 9 kg LPG Type 27 cylinder (Type 1). The LPG gas tank is not
included.
The grill system is leak tested, do not remove the Regulator/Hose assembly from the grill
during cart installation.
Connection: 1/2” NPT male with a 3/8” Flare adapter (included). LPG Hose with a Type 27 fitting
and fittings are included. Operating pressure: 2.75 kPa. Maximum supply pressure: 1750 kPa.
To connect the LPG regulator/hose assembly to the cylinder/valve assembly, first make sure the
main valve on the cylinder is completely closed. You should always turn off the LPG cylinder main
valve (Fig. 07) after each use and during transport of the cylinder or unit. Insert the cylinder valve
inside the large diameter wheel and turn the wheel clockwise by hand until the connection tightens
up. Do not overtighten the wheel. A good connection can be made without the use of tools. Turn
the main cylinder valve on and turn the burner control valves on the unit to the “HI” position for
about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to purge, turn valves off and wait five minutes be-
fore attempting to light the burners.
To disconnect the regulator from the cylinder, first make sure the main cylinder valve is turned off.
Grasp the large diameter wheel and turn counterclockwise until the inlet will disengage. The inlet
will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the cylinder valve opening if it has not already done so
when it disengaged. Your local LPG filling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to
fill your cylinder.
LPG cylinder requirements:
A dented or rusty LPG cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your LPG supplier. The
cylinder that is used must have a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Never use a cylinder with a
damaged valve. Always check for leaks after every LPG cylinder change. The LPG gas cylinder must
conform to AS2030.1. Do not change the regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with the unit.
The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in an LPG gas supply cylinder valve
outlet specified, as applicable, for Type 27 connection. If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylin-
der must be disconnected and removed from the appliance. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated area out of the reach of children.
Note: when an LPG unit is being directly connected to an LPG house system, you must follow the
Natural gas hook up guidelines. The installer must provide the proper gas regulator to reduce the
gas flow to 2.75 kPa. The Grill comes with the LPG Regulator/Hose assembly installed at the factory.
The assembly, along with the entire Grill system, is leak tested. Do not remove the Regulator/Hose
assembly from the Grill during installation.
IMPORTANT!
y Before connecting
LP
tank to regulator, check
that all grill burners and rotisserie valves are in
the OFF position and open grill hood.
y Do not place the Grill directly on the ground or
any other flat surface without support. This will
prevent damaging the regulator/hose assembly
by the weight of the grill.
y Check the hose, regulator and connectors for
damage. Look for cracks, abrasions, brittleness,
holes, dents and nicks.
y Do not attempt to remove, repair, or replace the
regulator/hose assembly by yourself. It must be
done by a qualified licensed technician only.
