Converting from LP to NG
WARNING! You must have an authorized service technician perform this procedure. If these instructions are not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.. Lloyd’s Material Supply (L..M..S..) will not be held responsible for an improperly converted gas grill..
All Cal Heat grills are manufactured as standard liquid propane (LP) grills and can be converted to burn natural gas (NG). There are two steps required to convert a grill from LP to NG. You must perform both steps.
Step 1:Switching the regulator behind the grill
Step 2: Changing the burner orifices
You will need some or all of the fittings (depending on the size of the grill or cart) contained in the conversion kit provided with the grill. The conversion kit contains orifices to convert five main burners, two small rear infrared burners, one large infrared burner, and two side burners. You will not need all of the parts in the kit.
Before you begin, make certain the LP gas source has been disconnected from the grill. If you have a cart, you do not need to remove the grill from the cart.
To gain access to the NG regulator:
• For grills, tilt the grill forward.
• For barbecue carts, remove the back cover.
