This grill must operate with a gas supply pressure of 11 inches water column (0.39 psi) for propane and 7 inches water column
(0.25 psi) for natural gas. If the gas supply exceeds these requirements a regulator must be installed upstream of the grill's
components. If the gas supply is lower than the requirements, the unit will be under fired and will not reach the maximum
temperatures.
To a House Gas Supply Line
The piping up to the grill is the responsibility of the installer.
• The gas pipe must be sized to supply the BTU/h specified on the
rating plate, based on the length of the piping run.
• If you are installing a side burner, a separate gas line must be
branched off to the unit through a specific opening in that location.
1. A readily accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed
upstream of the unit. A flexible metal connector is included to
simplify the installation. Connect the other end of the connector to
the gas piping.
2. Tighten using two wrenches. Do not use thread sealer or pipe dope.
3. Ensure that the connector does not pass through a wall, floor,
ceiling or partition, and is protected from damage.
4. Leak test all joints prior to operating the grill. See "Leak Test".
WARNING! The connectors must be of rigid pipe, copper tube or approved flexible metal which must comply
with Z21.24/CSA 6.10 or ANSI Z21.75/CSA 6.27
To a Portable Propane Cylinder
Only use a propane cylinder constructed and marked in accordance
with the Specifications for LP gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and
Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/
CSA-B339, as applicable.
The cylinder connection device must be compatible with the
connection for this outdoor appliance.
The propane cylinder must have:
• A shutoff valve with a QCC1 connection
• A safety relief device
• A collar to protect the valve
• A listed Overfill Protection Device
1. Check the cylinder for dents or rust, and have it inspected by
your propane supplier.
2. Ensure the gas regulator hose has no kinks.
3. Do not route the hose in close proximity to the drip pan.
4. Remove the cap or plug from the cylinder fuel valve.
5. Insert the black QCC1 regulator nipple onto the QCC1 fuel valve.
Hand tighten to right. Do not use tools.
6. Ensure the hose does not contact any high temperature surfaces
of the grill because it will melt and cause a fire.
7. Leak test all joints prior to operating the grill.
See "Leak Test".
WARNING! Do not store a spare gas cylinder below the grill head or side burners.
WARNING! Never use a gas cylinder that is beyond 80% full.
WARNING! Follow all specifications and instructions exactly to prevent fire, explosion, property damage, personal
injury, or death.
WARNING! Disconnect the grill and its individual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
