CONNECTING YOUR GRILL TO THE NATURAL GAS SOURCE:
1. A professionally-installed shut-off valve between the supply
piping and the socket is recommended, but not required, by
the National Fuel Gas Code. Socket connection must be made
outdoors.

2. Coat the gas supply pipe nipple with gas resistant pipe dope or
approved teflon tape. Screw socket onto gas supply pipe
(house gas source) as shown in Figure A below, and wrench-
tighten.
CAUTION
The quick disconnect socket should never be connected to the
grill. Direction of gas flow is indicated on the socket.

USE & CARE
Natural Gas Connections and Service Regulators
Above 1/2 psi.
Figure A
Prior to 1998, all residential gas service regulators were set with
an outlet pressure of 7 inches water column.
3. Pull back the sleeve on the quick disconnect socket and insert
the unattached end of the gas hose into the socket. Release the
sleeve and continue pushing the hose into the socket until the
sleeve snaps into the locked position. See Figure B.
In the 1998 edition of NFPA 54, the National Fuel Gas Code, a
change was made allowing service regulators of 2 and 5 psi.
With this change it was also required that an in line regulator be
connected between the service regulator and the appliance
regulator if the 2 or 5 psi system is used. This additional regulator
is not supplied with the product.
Sleeve
Gas hose
It is possible for a consumer, making the connection themselves,
or a plumber, not checking, to tap into a 2 or 5 psi line. If a
pressure of 2 psi or greater is supplied to the appliance regulator
on certain grills it will shut down and not deliver any gas to the grill.
The included quick disconnect socket and hose should not be
used at pressures above 1/2 psi.
If the quick disconnect socket, hose, and grill are properly
connected and still not getting gas, delivery pressure needs to be
verified. If pressure is greater than 1/2 psi, make sure that an in
line regulator is present.
Figure B
Once the grill has been over-pressured, the regulator may or may
not have been damaged. The best practice is to replace the
regulator.
4. When the quick disconnect socket and the gas hose are
connected, a valve in the socket opens automatically to permit
full gas flow. When the gas hose is disconnected, the valve in
the socket instantly and positively shuts off the flow of gas.
Because the valve in the socket positively shuts off the flow of
gas, the grill can be disconnected from the gas source by
disconnecting the gas hose from the quick disconnect socket.
The socket should be left attached to the gas source (house
piping). Figure C shows properly connected hose and socket.
WARNING
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.

The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing on that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2
psig (3.5kPa).
USE AND CARE CON’T.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
Figure C
With proper assembly, the gas hose cannot be removed without
pushing the quick disconnect sleeve back. To disconnect, push
sleeve back and pull plug out of sleeve (this automatically shuts
off gas).
Please Note: Hose and assembly are C.S.A. listed for natural
gas, manufactured gas, mixed gas and for liquefied petroleum
and for LP Gas-Air mixtures on basis of 0.64 specific gravity for
1000 BTU’s per cubic foot of gas at 0.3 in. water column
pressure drop. Only ANSI Z21.54 approved hoses should be used
with this grill.
