CHECKING AND CONVERTING YOUR BARBECUE
This barbecue comes from the factory confi gured for
one type of gas as marked on the label behind the
barbecue face plate.
Each burner has a replaceable brass orifi ce, which
must be checked during installation to verify a match
to the gas being used. When converting the barbecue
to a different gas, each burner’s orifi ce must be
checked and replaced with the corresponding orifi ce
for the new gas.
Consult the model specifi cations table (page 2) under
the specifi c gas to be burned, to determine the proper
orifi ce sizes for each burner.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS OVERHEATING WILL OCCUR IF A
NATURAL GAS ORIFICE IS USED WITH PROPANE
GAS. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE THE CORRECT
ORIFICES ARE INSTALLED, OR IF AN ORIFICE
CHANGE IS NECESSARY, REFER TO THE FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION: Make sure the barbecue is at a safe
temperature and isolated from gas and
electrical supplies before beginning the
tasks outlined below.
Note: The cooler the barbecue, the greater the
tolerances between the stainless steel parts
and therefore the easier to disassemble and
reassemble parts of the barbecue.
For your safety, exercise caution, and make sure you have
adequate hand protection such as gloves when handling
removable sheet metal parts of the barbecue.
