Check that all burner valves are off

You will need: burner control knobs.

Valves are shipped in the OFF position, but you should check to be sure that they are turned OFF. Put the knob on each valve. Check by pushing down and turning clockwise. If they do not turn, they are off. Proceed to the next step. If they do turn continue turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are off. Proceed to the next step.

Some of the following are general requirements taken from ANISI Z223.1 latest edition for complete specifi- cations.

This barbecue is designed to operate at 7 inches of water column pressure (.2526 psi).

A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors, immediately ahead of the quick disconnect.

An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible location near the supply line

The quick disconnect connects to a 3/8 inch NPT thread from the gas source. The quick disconnect fitting is a hand-operated device that automatically shuts OFF the flow of gas from the source when the barbecue is disconnected

The quick disconnect fitting can be installed horizon- tally, or pointing downward. Installing the fitting with the open end pointing upward can result in collecting water and debris.

The dust covers (supplied plastic plugs) help keep the open ends of the quick disconnect fitting clean while disconnected.

Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to the action of natural gas when connections are made.

The outdoor connector must be firmly attached to

rigid, permanent construction.

m WARNING: Do not route the 12 foot hose under a deck. The hose must be visible.
