Broilmaster PB, DC, U26SS, U48, PC, AND P48 owner manual IN-GROUND Post Installation

IN-GROUND POST INSTALLATION 16

The U48 and P48 In-Ground Posts are only for use with Broilmaster® Gas Grills. Before proceeding with installation read your Owner’s Manual for the proper location and minimum clearances to combustible materials for your grill and in-ground post.

Verify that all parts listed in the exploded view of this product have been included before beginning this installation.

Recommended Tools:

•Two adjustable wrenches or a socket set

•A medium Phillips screwdriver

•Pipe thread sealer or Teflon tape (for gas connections)

•Soapy water solution (to test for leaks)

CAUTION: THE CONCRETE MIXTURE MUST NOT COVER THE GAS SUPPLY ENTRY HOLE ON THE POST.

THE GAS SUPPLY ENTRY HOLE (2" DIAMETER HOLE) IS LOCATED 18 3/4" FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE

POST.

Make a final alignment check with the level, and adjust as needed. Allow concrete to set (usually 24 hours).

After the concrete has set, insert the tubing (6) in the post. Figure 1.

Note: Do not attempt to cut or alter the flex tube in any way.

Dig a hole approximately 12" in diameter and 24" in depth at the desired grill location.

Note: “Normal Installation” height is achieved when the top of the in-ground post (7) is 25 1/4" above ground. This height provides a cooking surface height of 34 1/2" above ground when grids are placed in the high level position.

Carefully lower the in-ground post into the hole using the following guidelines:

•The rectangular cut-out is located near the TOP of the post and should be above ground after installation.

•The rectangular cut-out must face in the SAME direction as the front of the grill.

•Hole depth and post measurements should be checked to ensure desired height.

Note: Make any adjustments at this time.

Prepare concrete or a standard pre-mix according to the manufacturer’s package directions.

Position the post in the center of the hole. A level should be used when aligning the post to achieve precise vertical alignment. Hold the post in place while pouring the concrete mixture into the hole around the post.
