which

For proper operation, burners must be aligned with the valve orifice and seated in the bracket slots. This is
accomplished by first placing the burner tube shutter hole securely over the valve orifice and ensuring the male posts
on the rear of the burner rests in the opening in the grill chassis. Failure to do so could result in a fire and injury.

BEWARE OF SPIDERS

CAUTION: BURNER TUBES MUST BE INSPECTED AND CLEANED BEFORE EACH USE.

Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the burner tubes. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction, which
could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type of fire is known as “FLASH-BACK” and can cause serious damage to your
appliance and create an unsafe operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of “FLASH­BACK” it is the most common cause, and frequent inspection and cleaning of the burner tubes is necessary.



Once filled, carefully connect the valve and make sure it is secure and not leaking.



With the control knobs in the OFF position, turn on the cylinder valve.
If you smell gas or hear a hiss of gas escaping from the tank, get away from the tank and do not attempt to correct
the problem yourself. Call the Fire Department immediately.
If your appliance has no leak at the cylinder, then re-check for loose connections and retest for leaks using the
method detailed in the following pages with soapy solution.
Do not subject your LP gas cylinder to excessive heat, and always store the cylinder in an upright position.

Never
store your LP cylinders indoors.
Make sure that when attaching components, all connections are secured and fully tightened to prevent leakage.

Always check for leaks before every use.

If one is not already available, it is recommended that an ON-OFF shutoff valve be installed at the gas supply
and that the gas supply be turned off when either Natural Gas or LP Gas appliances are not in use.

Installing the Appliance in a BBQ Island

NOTE: Check with City and Fire department for Local Building Codes. A Permit may be

required for outdoor kitchen construction.

You will need a second person to help you avoid damaging the appliance or your appliance island.

Ensure all clearances to combustibles are maintained. See page 26
The island must be made out of non-combustible material. In the event it is combustible, the use of an
insulation jacket is REQUIRED.
A distance of 5” will be needed behind the grill for the lid to open and close. Remember that should

Outdoor Kitchen Ventilation

WARNING

Failure to adequately vent your outdoor

kitchen cavity could result in an explosion or

fire.

When building a gas grill into an outdoor kitchen, it is necessary to provide adequate ventilation for the
island cavity underneath. This is necessary for not only proper combustion, but also to prevent a buildup of
gas. While the amount of venting required for your island will vary due to the variety of differing local
codes, inner framework and design of an outdoor kitchen, the amount of gas products installed and their
locations, etc, all built in grill islands should be ventilated in some way. Your local contractor and/or your
local code authority can determine adequate ventilation for each installation. Stainless Steel vent panels are
available from your dealer to cover the island venting.

The following information is important to consider when adhering to your local code requirements.

LP/Propane Gas: LP gas is heavier than air and will settle to the lower levels of the outdoor kitchen. It is
imperative to provide adequate cross ventilation for the areas where gas can accumulate at these lower
levels of the island cavity. Should the Propane cylinder be located in the outdoor kitchen itself, a plenum
wall is required to separate the gas source from the other areas of the outdoor kitchen (picture shown in

owner’s manual), and both the cabinets containing the gas appliances and the gas tank should be ventilated

appropriately. If a plenum wall is undesirable, Blaze offers a Propane tank drawer as an alternative.

NG/Natural Gas: Natural gas is lighter than air and will rise to the higher levels of the outdoor kitchen. It is
imperative to provide adequate cross ventilation for the areas where gas can accumulate at these higher
levels of the island cavity.

Blaze Outdoor Products Instructional Book

Page | 25

Version 1.3

The following diagram shows a variety of examples of venting locations and configurations for an outdoor
kitchen. These are not the only possible options for venting but instead simply some examples of the more
common configurations found. Notice the middle set of vents being positioned lower on the island cavity
for LP gas.

BUILDING BBQ INSTRUCTIONS

ALL GAS CONNECTION POINTS SHOULD BE TESTED FOR LEAKS AFTER INSTALLATION PRIOR

TO FIRST USE OF THE GAS APPLIANCE(S).

Before installing an appliance in any island cut out, make sure that the opening is not bigger than the outside frame
of the appliance unit. The appliance should rest on the lip of the frame.

Blaze Outdoor Products Instructional Book

Page | 26

Version 1.3

Pay careful attention to the location of the gas line. It should be routed away from sources of heat, sharp edges, and
aggressive surfaces and should make as few bends as possible.

Ensure the gas line connection will be accessible when appliance is installed. A safety shutoff valve is required at
this gas connection point. Before installing the grill into the island cutout, the main burner cotter pins may be
removed for convenience of service, adjustments, and maintenance in the future. These are accessible from the
outside rear of the grill.

If the main burner cotter pins are removed before installing, the main burners must be double checked for the
correct placement in the grill be fo re o peration. When finished ensure that the burners are aligned with the
valve orifice and seated in the bracket slot. This is accomplished by first placing the burner tube shutter
hole securely over the valve orifice and ensuring the male post on the rear of the burner rests in the
corresponding slot in the grill chassis. Failure to do so could result in a fire and injury.

If the outdoor kitchen countertop will overhang the face of the island, notching out the two front countertop edges will
be necessary to allow the grill to slide flush against the outer front wall to the outdoor kitchen. Due to differing personal
preferences of the size of the notch out, this is recommended to be done at the point of installation so that the
consumer can dictate their preference.

• Slide the appliance into the cut

• Be very careful not to kink the gas line when lowering the appliance into the cut out.

• Keep your fingers away from where the appliance will be supported on counter. Your fingers could
