CONNECTING THE GAS SUPPLY
For propane cylinders:
For connecting a propane unit to a portable propane tank,
read the safety warnings and follow the instructions in the
section SAFE USE AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPANE
GAS CYLINDERS.
Note: When a propane cylinder is installed inside
of the enclosure, the guidelines found in the
ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS section
MUST be followed.
For household propane or natural gas units:
CAUTION: Use only C.S.A. listed stainless-steel fl ex
connectors within the enclosure.
WARNING
A rubber or plastic connector will rupture or leak,
resulting in an explosion or serious injury if used
inside the appliance enclosure.
a. Connect a 1 / 2 " fl ex connector (not included) to the
adapter found underneath the unit and route the
other end of the fl ex connector to the gas-supply
stub.
b. Turn OFF the gas supply at the source. Connect
a pipe adapter fi tting (as appropriate for your setup)
to the gas-supply stub using a pipe joint compound
that is resistant to all gasses. Tighten securely. Then
attach the open end of the fl ex connector to the
adapter. Tighten securely.
c. Turn the burner control knob to the OFF position.
Turn the gas supply on. Then carefully check all gas
connections for leaks with a brush and half-soap/
half-water solution before lighting. NEVER USE A
MATCH OR OPEN FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAKS.
COUNTER PREPARATION
Consult Table 1 for enclosure cut-out dimensions. If the counter or any supporting construction is combustible,
the COMBUSTIBLE ENCLOSURE CUT-OUT section must be followed before beginning the installation.
This sideburner must be supported by the stainless-steel hanger extending from the upper portion of the frame.
The hanger rests on the left, right, and back of the countertop
.
The control panel is designed to sit fl ush against the enclosure front wall (see Fig. 11-2). If the enclosure countertop
extends beyond the front wall, creating a countertop overhang (see Fig. 11-1), it must be cut fl ush with the front
wall for the width of the control panel or a gap will be created exposing the forward portions of the left and right
side fi re walls of the unit. Reference the MODEL SPECIFICATIONS section.
Note: It is not necessary to remove the control panel or control knob to install this unit.
