CONVERT GAS TYPE / CHECK BURNER ORIFICES
CAUTION:
Make sure the grill is at a safe temperature and
isolated from gas and electrical supplies before
beginning.
For your safety, exercise caution, and make sure you have
adequate hand protection, such as gloves, when handling
metal parts.
APPLY CONVERSION LABEL
This grill comes from the factory congured for one type of
gas as marked on the label inside the cabinet.
When the grill is converted, the label for the new gas
(included at original shipping) MUST be lled out and
applied next to the existing label mentioned above.
CONVERT GAS ORIFICES
When converting the grill to a different gas type, each
burner’s orice must be replaced with the corresponding
orice for the new gas.
See MODEL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE, on page 1 at the
beginning of this document to determine the proper orice
sizes for each burner.
See the following sections for details on orice conversion.
Important: It is critical to the operation of each burner
that its orice be fully inserted into the center of its
orice opening.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS OVERHEATING WILL OCCUR IF A
NATURAL-GAS ORIFICE IS USED WITH PROPANE
GAS.
CONNECT TO NEW GAS SUPPLY
Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.
(Additional components may be needed for your specic
setup.) Be sure to leak test at all connections.
Natural-gas to propane-gas conversions using a tank
internal to a portable grill require installation of a propane
tank holder (not included). This tank holder must be
purchased separately from the manufacturer.
CONVERT/CHECK MAIN BURNER ORIFICES
1. Remove the cooking grid and avor grid from above
the burner you are working on and set them aside.
2. Remove the screw from the left or right burner (Figure
1).
3. Lift the back end of the burner upward, then move the
burner toward the back of the grill to clear the gas inlet
and set it aside.
Figure 1
4. Use a 3/8" hex nut driver to remove the exposed orice
(Figure 2). Check orice. If needed, replace it with the
correct orice for the new gas.
Figure 2
5. Replace the burner by rst sliding the open cylindrical
end of the burner around the orice, enveloping it and
centering on it, then lower the back end anchor pegs
into the anchor peg holes.
Note: It is critical to the continued safe functioning of the
burner that the orice is centered and completely
inside the burner gas inlet (Figure 3).
6. Reinsert the screw through burner and tighten.
7. Replace the avor grid and then the cooking grid.
8. Repeat these steps for each burner.
