Figure 18
4.Use a 7mm socket or wrench to remove all LP gas orifices marked 1.02 from gas valves.
5.Install natural gas orifices marked 1.51 into gas valves. Apply pipe compound to threads on orifices prior to installation.
6.Attach left side of control panel to grill with two (2) Phillips screws from Step 3. Carefully insert left burner orifice into left burner. Continue to carefully insert the remaining orifices into the burners. Attach right side of control panel to grill with two
(2) Phillips screws from Step 3.
7.The low input adjustment screws are located inside the main burner valve stems. Use small screwdriver supplied in conver- sion kit to turn each adjustment screw clockwise 1/4 turn (90 degrees).
Attention (SBG2501 and SBG2801 Only): The valve stem that is second from the left side of the grill is the rotisserie valve stem and it will not be adjusted.
8.Remove rotisserie burner back cover (5 Phillips screws - four on the back and one on inside top of the back of the grill).
9.Use a 14mm wrench or adjustable wrench to remove LP gas rotisserie orifice marked 0.84 for SBG2501 and 1.02 for SBG2801 from orifice fitting.
10.Install natural gas rotisserie orifice marked 1.18 for SBG2501 and 1.51 for SBG2801 into orifice fitting. Apply pipe com- pound to threads on orifice prior to installation.
11.Remove the hose and regulator from the gas connection on grill with an adjustable wrench.
12.Connect the grill to the natural gas supply.
13.Attention: Before lighting your grill check all gas connections including the adjustment screws in valve stems for gas leaks with a soapy water mixture.
Caution: Do not use the grill if a gas leak is detected until gas leak is corrected. If a gas leak can not be stopped, do not use
grill. You must contact a qualified repair person.
14.Replace back panel (5 Phillips screws from step 8).
15.Replace all control knobs with allen wrench.
16.Apply the completed conversion label adjacent to the rating plate label on the right side panel of the cart.
17.The natural gas inlet pressure at the grill is to be set at 7.0” of inlet pressure.
18.Ignite burners on grill and observe flame pattern. If flame is yellow in color or flame is lifting off burner, the air shutter on burners will require adjustment.
19.Turn OFF (but do NOT remove) natural gas supply to grill.
20.Loosen (but do NOT remove) two (2) Phillips screws at end of each burner. Lift upward and pivot burner out of grill.
21.Loosen Phillips screw at air shutter. Air shutter for natural gas should have about 1/4” opening. Open air shutter for a yellow flame or close air shutter for a lifting flame. Tighten Phillips screw at air shutter.
22.Replace burners into grill. Tighten two (2) Phillips screws at end of each burner.
23.Ignite burners on grill to verify burner flame characteristics.
Installation must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. In Canada, installation shall be in accordance with
Caution: The grill and its individual shutoff valve must be dis- connected from the gas supply piping system during any system pressure testing at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG.
Caution: The grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG.
