INSTALLATION Liquid Propane Gas Grills
Locating Your Grill
• Your Ducane
®
Gas Grill is manufactured for outdoor use only! Any grill, charcoal
or gas, produces carbon monoxide while in operation and the gas should not be
allowed to accumulate in a confined area. Never operate this grill inside your home
or recreational vehicle or any enclosed area.
• When locating your grill, choose a safe outdoor location away from flammable or
combustible surfaces and out of traffic paths. Ducane
®
strongly recommends a 24”
clearance to combustible surfaces.
• Consult your local codes for possible additional restrictions on location or operation
of your grill.
• As your grill uses gas, it requires air to burn properly. Do not locate your grill in
such manner or as to obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the
grill.
• When possible, adjust your grills’ position to reduce the likelihood of wind blowing
onto it.
CAUTION: Never operate your grill under any overhead com-
bustible construction.
CAUTION: This grill is not intended to be installed in or at-
tached to a recreational vehicle. It is also not intended to be
installed in or on a boat.
WARNING: Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other ap-
pliance. Failure to follow this warning could lead to a fire,
explosion and bodily harm.
Assembly
Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed
with each grill giving specific assembly procedures for each model. Follow these in-
structions carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill.
CAUTION: Although we take every effort to ensure that the
assembly process is as easy and as safe as possible, it is
inherent with fabricated steel parts that corners and edges
can cause cuts if improperly handled during assembly pro-
cedures. Be careful while handling any parts during assem-
bly. It is strongly recommended that you protect hands with
a pair of work gloves.

Leveling
It is important for the proper operation of the grill that it be located on a level surface.
Grounding Instructions
This appliance shall be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical
shock. The appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding-
type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle. Plug into a GFCI-protected
outdoor receptacle, where available.
Extension Cords
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-
pole cord connectors that accept the plug from the appliance. Only extension cords
identified by the marking with the suffix letters W-A, and tagged “Suitable for use
with outdoor appliances” shall be used outdoors. Use only extension cords having an
electrical rating not less than the rating of the appliance. Do not use damaged extension
cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse
extension cord and do not tug on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat
and sharp edges.
CONNECTION Liquid Propane Gas Grills
Type of Gas
• Your LP grill is factory built to operate using liquid propane only. Never attempt to
operate your grill on gases other than the type specified on the grill rating plate.
• The regulator supplied with your liquid propane gas grill is set for 11” water
column pressure and is for use with propane gas only. This regulator and the fac-
tory-supplied hose assembly must be used when operating your grill with a 20 lb. LP
gas cylinder.
• If replacement of the hose and/or regulator becomes necessary, factory-specified
parts are required.
• For safety and design reasons, the conversion of a Ducane
®
grill from operation
using LP gas to operation using natural gas requires the change out of the entire gas
supply system of the grill. If this becomes necessary, see your dealer for additional
information.
Handling Liquid Propane Gas
Propane gas should be handled and stored with care. We suggest asking your propane
gas dealer, when having your tank filled, for a short course in handling, care and
storage of propane gas tanks. Most dealers will be glad to instruct you on how to store
and handle your tank. Make sure your tank is never stored inside! Keep it outside in a
well-ventilated area in an upright position away from your gas grill.
Portable Installation
Complete portability is afforded to the grill head when mounted on the portable cart.
When so installed, it is necessary to use a 20 lb. capacity liquid propane tank. Use no
other size. The tank retainer is designed to accommodate only this size tank.
