Owner's Manual

LEAK TESTING:

GENERAL:

Although all gas connections on your ALFRESCO™ Gourmet Grill are leak tested at the factory prior to

shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mis-

handling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check

the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.

BEFORE TESTING:

 Do not smoke while leak testing.

 Never leak test with an open flame.

 Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing purposes.

 Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle, or brush.

 For LP units, always check with a full cylinder.

To connect the regulator / hose assembly follow the next steps:

1. Locate the regulator and gas connection point in the rear right side of your BBQ unit (remove the

rear panel from the BBQ cart to gain access - in cart mounted models).

2. Attach a 1/2” FPT x 1/2” MPT (male-to-female) elbow to the regulator (see figure # 3).

3. Fasten the hose connection to a 1/2” MPT x 3/8” COMP (compression flare fitting) connected to

the elbow. (see figure # 3).

Connect flare fitting to gas supply using a 1/2” Ø minimum flexible (semi–rigid) stainless steel gas hose,

no more than 48” in length. The hose as well as the connectors must comply with the Standard for Con-

nectors for Outdoor Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75 • CAS 6.27,
