Leak Testing
•
GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment,
a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to
possible mishandling in the shipment process or excessive pressure unknowingly being
applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks or immediately check
if the smell of gas is detected.

BEFORE TESTING
1.
Make sure that all packing material is removed from the grill. (Look underneath the
grill for any remaining packing material or parts.)
2. Do not smoke while leak testing.
3. Never leak test with an open flame.
4. Make a soap solution with one part liquid detergent and another part water.
Prepare a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the connections.
For the initial leak test, make sure the LP tank is full.
5. Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances, and flammable materials.
6. Keep the grill away from open flames and/or sparks while testing.
TO TEST
•
1)
Make sure all control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
2) Make sure the regulator is connected to the LP tank tightly.
3) Completely open the LP tank valve by turning counter-clockwise. If you hear a "POP"
sound, turn the gas off IMMEDIATELY as it indicates a heavy leak at the connection.
Call your gas dealer or fire department.
4) Check every connection from the LP tank up to and including the connection to the
manifold pipe assembly (the pipe that goes to the burner) by brushing or spraying
the soapy solution on the connections.
5) If soap bubbles appear, there is a leak. Turn off the LP tank valve IMMEDIATELY and
retighten the connections, open the LP tank valve again, and recheck.
6) If leaks cannot be stopped, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR. Call our service center at
1-888-287-0735 for help.
7) Always close the LP tank valve after leak testing by turning clockwise. Only those
parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill. Substitution
will void the warranty. Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked
and do not leak.
