INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND SAFETY INFORMATION

5

WARNING

This appliance MUST be installed and operated according to the information below.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY VENT THE PROPANE TANK MAY RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION CAUSING

PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR DEATH.

A leaking gas connection or valve unintentionally left open will create a hazard.

WHEN USING PROPANE GAS

• Propane gas (also known as L.P. gas) is heavier than air and will accumulate or pool in an inadequately

vented area or recessed area.

• If a pool of propane gas is ignited, an explosion will occur. Adequate venting at the ﬂoor level of the propane

tank eliminates this danger.

• DO NOT store a spare propane-gas cylinder near the unit.

WHEN USING NATURAL GAS

• Natural gas is lighter than air and will accumulate at the top of an inadequately vented area.

• If an accumulation of natural gas is ignited, an explosion will occur. Adequate venting will eliminate this danger.

INSTALLATION SAFETY GUIDELINES

THIS UNIT MUST BE INSTALLED SO THAT THE AREA AROUND THE UNIT AND PROPANE TANK REMAIN

CLEAR AND FREE AT ALL TIMES.

The gas cylinder, regulator, and rubber hose must be in a location not subject to temperatures above

125° F (51° C).

IF A PROPANE CYLINDER IS INSTALLED, THE GUIDELINES FOUND IN THE SAFE USE & MAINTENANCE

OF PROPANE GAS CYLINDERS SECTION MUST BE FOLLOWED.

WHEN OPERATING THIS GAS APPLIANCE, ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS

MUST BE OBSERVED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION

CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR DEATH.

2. Turn OFF the gas supply at the source.

3. A shut-off valve is required within 6 feet of the unit.

If shut-off valve is installed in-line:

• Install the supplied ﬂare-to-NPT adapter to the gas

supply (NPT) using a pipe joint compound resistant to

all gasses (see Fig. 17-2, A). Tighten securely.

• Connect the ﬂex connector to the adapter (see Fig.

17-2, A). Tighten securely.

If shut-off valve is connected to end of gas supply stub:

• Connect the ﬂex connector to the shut-off valve (ﬂare)

(see Fig. 17-2, B). Tighten securely.

For propane cylinders:

For connecting a propane unit to a portable propane tank,

read the safety warnings and follow the instructions in the

section SAFE USE AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPANE GAS

CYLINDERS.

Important: An appropriate adapter will be required to connect

the existing ﬂex connector to an L.P. regulator/

hose assembly.

LEAK TEST

Turn all burner control knobs to the OFF position. Turn the gas

supply on. Then carefully check all gas connections for leaks

with a brush and half-soap/half-water solution before lighting.

NEVER USE A MATCH OR OPEN FLAME TO TEST FOR

LEAKS.

It is not required to remove the control panel or knobs to install

this unit. DO NOT lift the unit from the control panel when

installing.

PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION

Consult a qualiﬁed professional installer / licensed contractor.

The in-ground post is designed primarily for installation with a

permanent underground gas supply.

To gain access to the inside of the post, unscrew and carefully open

the access plate on the rear of the post using a medium Phillips-

head screwdriver. Retain the screws.

ROUTE GAS SUPPLY (UNDERGROUND METHOD)

Note: This section addresses an underground gas supply setup.

To connect through the rear of the post, reference the

ROUTE FLEX CONNECTOR section of PATIO-MOUNT

INSTALLATION, and do not perform the steps until after:

attaching the extension post, and installing the post / pouring

the concrete.

1. After running the underground gas supply (NPT) line to the

planned grill location, dig a hole for the post and extension

approximately 18" deep and 10-12" in diameter.

Note: Run the gas supply line up from the bottom of the hole

(a little off center) so that it reaches to approximately 4"

above ground level.

Note: The actual depth of the hole should be such that the shelf

surface is approximately 36.5" above ground level.

2. Verify that the gas supply line ﬁts through the gas line clearance

hole in the bottom of the post (see Fig. 18-

2). The clearance hole is

the larger of the two holes in the bottom of the post and is off center.

3. Verify that the ﬂex connector coming from the inside of the

post will connect properly with the gas supply line.

ATTACH POST EXTENSION

1. Attach the extension to the bottom of the grill post so

that the open portion is toward the back of the grill and

the ﬁve holes in the extension line up with the ﬁve (5)

weld-nuts in the post (see Fig. 19-1).

2. From outside the joined post and extension, insert

one of the

socket driver or wrench (see Fig. 19-2).

Note: There is one hole on each side of the post,

except the back which has two holes located on

either side of the extension opening.

PLACE POST IN-GROUND & POUR

CONCRETE

1. Prepare the concrete to be used for the install.

2. Carefully orient the post over the gas supply line and

into the installation hole.

Important: Verify that the gas supply line is running up

through the post hole, just off center. It must

extend high enough to reach the grill gas

connection and remain safely above the level

of the concrete when poured.

3. Remove the post, then cover the end of the gas supply

line with a plastic bag and/or masking tape to avoid

getting concrete or other debris in the supply line.

4. Pour the concrete into the hole 3-5" below ground

level taking care to protect the gas supply line.

5. While the concrete is still wet, carefully lower the

extended grill post into the hole so that the gas

supply line slides through the clearance hole in the

bottom of the post.

6. Orient the grill per plan, then level the grill and support

it so that it remains in position while the concrete drys.

ROUTE FLEX CONNECTOR (ABOVE GROUND

METHOD ONLY)

Note: This section addresses an above ground gas

supply setup. If connecting underground, skip this

section and continue with installation.

The gas supply line (NPT) will need to be run to the post

install location as appropriate for the desired setup.

To route ﬂex connector through rear of post:

1. Remove the knock-out disk at the bottom of the access

plate with a large ﬂathead screwdriver. (Insert the

screwdriver into the notch provided in the center of

the knock-out.)

2. Remove the plastic grommet (attached to the ﬂex

connector) and insert it into the newly created opening.

Then route the ﬂex connector through the opening.
