Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either
natural or LP, and make sure the marking on the
appliance rating plate agrees with that of the
supply. The rating plate is located on the inside
back wall of the Grill. Never connect an
unregulated gas line to the appliance.
An installer supplied gas shut-off valve must be
installed in an easily accessible location. All
installer supplied parts must conform to local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 or
CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation Code
or CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code.
All pipe sealants must be an approved type and
resistant to the actions of LP gases. Never use
pipe sealant on flare fittings. All gas connections should be made by a qualified technician and in
accordance with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must
comply with the national fuel gas code ANSI Z223.1. Gas conversion kits are available from the factory.
When ordering gas conversion kits have the model number, and the type of gas (natural or LP) from
your grill.
TOTAL GAS CONSUMPTION OF THE GRILL WITH ALL BURNERS ON HI:
BGB30-BQR - 50,0 00 Btu/hr
The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa.) The
appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-
off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa.). The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes,with the national fuel gas code,ANSI Z223.1. Installation in Canada must be in
accordance with the Standard CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code and local codes.
NATURAL GAS HOOK UP:
(This type of connection should be performed by a certified or
licenced technician only.)
Connection: 1/2" NPT male with 3/8" flare adapter. Operating pressure: 4.0" W.C.
Supply pressure: 5" to 14" water column. If in excess of 14" W.C. a step down regulator is required.
Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing gas supply
lines. Be sure to check on type and size of run, and how deep to bury the line. If the gas line is too
small, the grill will not function properly. Any joint sealant used must be an approved type and be
resistive to the actions of LP gases.
TO HOOK-UP THE FITTINGS SUPPLIED WITH THE GRILL:
Assemble as shown (Fig.01). Use threading compound on male threads only. Do not use threading
compound on the male end of the 1/2 NPT to 3/8 flare adapter. Use a second pipe wrench to hold the
grill inlet pipe to avoid shifting any internal gas lines of the grill. Ensure that the regulator arrow points
in the direction of gas flow towards the unit,away from the supply. Do not forget to place the installer
supplied gas valve in an accessible location.
