GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the 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 mishandling 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
1) Make sure that all packing material is removed from the grill including the burner
tie-down straps.
2) Do not smoke while leak testing.
3) Never leak test with an open flame.
4) Make a soap solution with one part liquid detergent and another part water.
Prepare a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the connections. For
the initial leak test, make sure the LP cylinder is full.
5) Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances, and flammable materials.
6) Keep grill away from open flames and/or sparks while testing.
TO TEST
1) Make sure all control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
2) Make sure the regulator is connected to the LP tank tightly.
3) Completely open LP tank valve by turning counter clockwise. If you hear a "POP"
sound, turn gas off IMMEDIATELY, as it indicates a heavy leak at the connection.
Call your gas dealer or fire department.
4) Check every connection from the LP tank up to and including the connection to
the manifold pipe assembly (the pipe that goes to the burner) by brushing or
spraying the soapy solution on the connections.
5) If soap bubbles appear, there is a leak. Turn off LP tank valve IMMEDIATELY
and retighten connections, Open LP tank valve again, and recheck.
6) If leaks cannot be stopped, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR. Call our service
center (866)-508-7514 for help.
7) Always close the LP tank valve after leak testing by turning clockwise.
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill.
Substitution will void the warranty. Do not use the grill until all connections have
been checked and do not leak.
