Installing Cooking Components
Important: Before cooking on your grill the first time,
wash cooking grids and cooking rack with warm,
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Season
with cooking oil regularly. After cooking is
completed, turn grill to HIGH setting for 3 to 5
minutes to burn off excess grease or food residue.
1. Install heat diffusers above burners. Place the
holes in rear corners of diffusers attach onto pegs
in the back edge of firebox. Ensure that firebox
heat shield is inserted securely into slots between
adjacent burners. If grill was shipped with shield
taped in place, remove tape before using grill.
2. Evenly space cooking grids on the ledge above
heat diffusers. (Fig.14)
3. Insert the legs of the warming rack into the holes in
the tops of the grill bowl side panels. (Fig.14)
4. Insert the side burner grease tray as shown. (Fig.

Connecting LP gas tank to LP grill
1. Open right door, unlock tank tray lock slip.(Fig.16).
Pull out tank tray, place foot ring of 20 lb tank into
the hole in tray. Make sure the tank valve is on
OFF position. Use the tank bolt to secure the tank
in a fixed position.(Fig.17)
2. Check the tank valve to ensure it has proper
external mating threads to fit the hose and
regulator assembly provided.
3. Make sure all burner valves are in OFF position.
4. Inspect the valve connection port and regulator
assembly. Look for damage or debris. Remove any
debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never use
damaged or plugged equipment.
5. When connecting regulator and hose assembly to
tank valve hand tighten quick coupling nut
clockwise to a full stop. (Fig.18) Do not use a
wrench to tighten because it could damage the
quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous
condition.
6. Open tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a
soapy water solution to check all connections for
leaks before attempting to light your grill. If a leak
is found, turn tank valve off and do not use your
grill until the leak is repaired.
CAUTION: When the appliance is not in use, gas
must be turned off at the supply tank.
