SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Certain Liquid Propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders for use in the grill beyond cylinder filling capacity. This “Overfilling” may create a dangerous condition. “Overfilled” tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tanks pressure relief valve will vent propane gas vapor to relieve this excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To reduce this danger, you should take the following

Position handles inward away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of the utensil when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep th

LOCATING GRILL/BUILT-IN CLEARANCES General The Grill is designed for easy placement into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications the grill drops into the opening shown in (Fig. 04) and hangs from its side flanges. A deck is not required to support it from the bottom. When using the insulated jacket in a combustible enclosure application, see the bottom of Fig. 04. The jacket assembly must be supported from the bottom by a ledge on each side or a solid deck beneath the entire grill

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 shipment, 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: Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open fla

USING THE SMOKER SYSTEM The smoker system on each grill consists of a stainless steel slide out tray which is positioned above a 3,500 Btu/hr burner. The burner is controlled by a precision brass valve which is capable of being turned down to very low heat levels. The system may be used alone for low temperature roasting and smoking or in conjunction with any combination of other burners. When using the smoker system in conjunction with the optional infrared rotisserie burner you’ll find it help
