Connect barbecue gas supply line to the natural gas supply

Note - We recommend that the connection between the barbecue gas supply line and the natural gas supply be flare to flare. A 3/8-inch flare fitting has been included with the barbecue gas supply line of your gas barbecue. The fitting is loosely connected for shipping and should be removed before installation.

You will need: barbecue gas supply line, 3/8 inch flare fitting, 3/4 inch and 11/16 inch wrenches.

Unscrew the 3/8 inch flare fitting from the barbecue gas supply line. Apply pipe sealant to the threads of the pipe fitting. Screw the pipe fitting end of the 3/8 inch flare fitting into the natural gas supply pipe. Tighten with an 11/16 inch wrench. Figure 16 (a).
