Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment,
a COMPLETE gas tightness check must be performed following the installation of the NG
conversion Kit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the
smell of gas is detected.
W A R N I N G
Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all flames. Never leak test with
an open flame.
Leak Testing
1. Turn all grill control knobs to OFF.
2. Be sure gas hose is tightly connected to gas source.
3. Completely open gas source. If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off immediately.
There is a major leak at the connection. Correct before proceeding.
4. Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water.
You will need a spray or brush to apply the solution to the fittings. Apply solution.
5. If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close gas source immediately
and retighten connection. If leaks cannot be stopped do not try to repair.
Call for replacement parts. Order new parts by giving the serial, model number
and name of items needed to the Grill Service Center at 1-877-707-5463
6. Always close gas source after performing leak test.

Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn. Replace damaged hoses before
using grill. Use only valve/hose/regulator specified by manufacturer.
W A R N I N G
Do not use hard metal piping of any kind to connect this
type of grill to natural gas source. Use only hose specified by manufacturer.
Using hard metal piping or convoluted metal tubing is an
unsafe practice. Movement of the grill can cause breakage of metal pipe.
