After completion of assembly, make sure all appliance control valves are OFF then turn the propane tank supply valve on and then turn the control valves on the grill to the ‘HI/IGN’ position for approximately 5 seconds to purge the line of air out of the gas line. After 5 seconds, you may turn on the other burners.
Installation Location for All Models Choose a location where the flow of air on the front or rear of the grill is not obstructed. Due to high temperatures, place the grill out of traffic and keep away from clothing, furniture, or any combustible materials. Keep the gas line connection as short as possible. Do not install in recreational vehicles/mobile homes, trailers, boats, etc. A minimum of five(5) foot clearance is required between the counter top and the overhead noncombustible construction.

Leak Testing NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. All gas piping and connections must be tested for leaks after installation or service. All leaks must be corrected immediately. Remember-before exchanging an empty bottle for a new one, make sure all control valves are in the “off” position. With the LP regulator connected to tank and grill and the grill knobs turned to OFF. Open the valve on the tank. Test for leaks by applying liquid soap solution to all joints. Bubbles forming indicate gas leak.
If flame is lifting, remove the front panel to access the burner front (air shutter) then turn the air shutter clockwise reducing this intake. The screw should be loosened before turning the air shutter. If the flame has more yellow than blue, the air shutter should be turned counter clockwise allowing more air in. This will stabilize the flame. Make sure to tighten the screw after adjustments are made. In order to provide gas to the burner, the orifice must be inside the burner venturi opening.
Optional Infred Burner 1. To install the optional infrared burner, begin by removing the far left cooking grid, flame tamer and zone divider, if applicable. 2. Remove conventional burner by first removing the cotter pin or screws that hold the burner in place (unless they were removed prior to installation), located on the bottom rear of the burner and located inside the rear of the grill body.
Cleaning and Maintenance Cleaning: Your grill works better and lasts longer if properly cleaned and maintained. Clean the grill after each use. Turn grill off before starting to clean. Protect your hand with a good mitt when cleaning the hot grill. Use a wire brush, dip in water and scrub the cooking grids to soften and loosen food spills. The food spills will fall into the crumb pan. Burn off excess food debris and marinades for 15 minutes after cooking. Do not use Aerosol cleaners on hot grill surface.
Important Note: For Locations Near Coastal Areas and Pools #304 stainless steel materials used in the construction of your cutlass PRO series grills are highly rust resistant, however, chlorine in the air from swimming pools or the salt from sea air may cause surface rust to appear and even create some pitting if left on the product.
Fuel Conversion of Main Burners: 1- Determine the existing gas type (LP or Natural gas). The method of changing gas types is similar for natural gas or propane gas. 2- You must remove all grates and burner covers to expose the main burners in the grill. 3- On the bottom rear of each burner may be a cotter pin or screws attaching burners to the grill housing. Remove cotter pins or screws. 4- Slide burner to the rear of the grill and up. Repeat for each burner.
Rotisserie Burner Conversion: 1- Remove the back panel at the rear of the grill, this will expose the V shaped or pyramid shaped brass orifice. 2- Replace with new orifice. 3- Replace rear panel. Trouble Shooting: Problem and Solution Burner will not light • Check gas supply to burner by manually lighting the burners. • See electrode for visible damage, replace if damaged. Improper Burner Flame • Check burner gas inlet area for blockage • Check orifice hoods for any clogging and clean.
