Liquid Propane Conversion to Natural Gas
All models are manufactured at the factory for use with LP
gas, and as such require conversion for use with an NG gas
supply.Theconversionshouldbedonebyaqualifiedtechnician
or your gas supplier. All orifices required for conversion are
provided with the units. The following steps are necessary to
convert for NG operation:
6. Locate the infrared burner orifice and remove. Replace
with the NG orifice supplied, marked 1.50 (53).
7. Locate the smoker burner. Slide the orifice out of the
burner and remove. Replace with the natural gas orifice
supplied, marked 0.93 (63). Reinstall the orifice into the
burner.
1. Make sure that the unit is disconnected from the gas and
electrical supplies.
8. On Model CGB48FSZLP, convert the side burners for
NG operation as follows:
2. Remove the grill grates and radiants. Unbolt the main
burners from their attachment at the rear of the burner
box and remove.
A. Removethegrate, burnercaps, venturisandburner
bases. See Fig. 3, next page.
3. Remove the knobs and control panel from the unit.
B. Remove the burner orifices. Use a 3/16" hex socket
on a 3" ratchet extension and apply a piece of tape
to the socket to hold the orifice in the socket while
removing. See Fig. 3A, next page.
4. Locate the main burner orifices. From inside control
panel area, locate the brass elbows where the orifices
are attached. Use a wrench on the flats of these elbows
to keep them from turning during orifice removal and
installation.Removethemainburnerorificesandreplace
with the NG orifices supplied, marked 2.06 (46). Do not
over-tighten orifices. Orifice must extend a minimum of
1/8" into main burner air shutter with burner installed.
Make sure burner will not disengage from orifice..
C. ReplacewiththeNGorificessupplied, number1.86
(49). Tighten until snug. See Fig 3B, next page.
D. Reassembletheburnerbasesandventuris. Reinstall
burner caps and grate.
NOTE: Install the conversion sticker (supplied)
beside the rating label.

SITE PREPARATION
To combustible construction -
To non-combustible construction -
Below the cooking surface, combustible construction
can be placed adjacent to the unit. Clearance of 3" at the
lower left rear of the unit must be maintained to allow
adequate routing of the gas and electrical supply lines.
Above the cooking surface, a minimum 8" clearance
from the sides is required to allow use of the rotisserie
motor and skewer. A minimum of 3" clearance from the
rear is required to allow proper opening of the hood.
Below the cooking surface, non-combustible construc-
tion can be placed directly adjacent to the unit. Clear-
ance of 3" at the lower left rear of the unit must be
maintained to allow adequate routing of the gas and
electrical supply lines.
Minimum horizontal clearance from sides and back of
unit to adjacent vertical combustible construction ex-
tending above top of unit, 12" from sides and 20" from
back.

SECTION 5:TEST AND ADJUSTMENT
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
All points of connection to the gas supply should be
checked for leaks anytime you smell gas. It is also
advisable to recheck them periodically. Follow the
steps outlined below:
manifold. Bubbles will form where a leak exists.
C. If a leak is present, shut off the gas at the supply.
Tighten any leaking fittings, turn on the gas and
recheck.
A. Makeasoapsolutionofonepartliquiddetergent
and one part water.
D. If the unit has been converted for use with an
alternate gas, make sure the technician checks
for leaks at all points of connection in the
control panel area and at the infrared burner
prior to reassembly of the control panel and
cover (Refer to LP to NG Conversion
instructions in Section 4).
B. Makesureallcontrolsareinthe"OFF"position.
Turn on the gas supply to the unit. Use a spray
bottle, brush or rag to apply the solution to all
fittingsandpointsofconnectionfromthesupply

BURNER AIR ADJUSTMENT
All burners are adjusted for proper flame
characteristics at time of assembly. If the unit has
been converted for use with alternate gas supply,
some adjustment of the air shutter on the main
burner may be necessary. Refer to Figure 7. If
adjustment is required, loosen the screw on the air
shutter and close or open shutter as required to
achieve proper flame characteristics. Tighten the
screw after adjustment.
All burners should exhibit flames which are blue and
stable, with no yellow-tipping, lifting or excessive
noise when operating on either natural or LP gases.
See Figure 8 for pictorial representation of proper
flame characteristics.
