ASSEMBLY, ENSAMBLAJE, ASSEMBLAGE
CAUTION: Although we take every effort to ensure that the assembly process is as easy and as safe as possible, it is inherent with fabricated steel parts that corners and edges can cause cuts if improperly handled during assembly procedures. Be careful while handling any parts during assembly. It is strongly recommended that you protect hands with a pair of work gloves.
PRECAUCIÓN: Aunque hacemos todo el esfuerzo posible en asegurarnos de que el proceso de ensamblaje sea lo más fácil y seguro posible, es inherente a las partes fabricadas de acero que las esquinas y bordes pueden causar cortaduras si son mal manipuladas durante los procedimientos de ensamblaje. Tenga cuidado al manipular cualquier parte durante el ensamblaje. Enfáticamente le recomendamos protegerse las manos con un par de guantes de trabajo.
ATTENTION: Bien que nous prenions toutes les mesures nécessaires afin de garantir que le processus de montage soit aussi simple et sûr que possible, il est inhérent aux pièces fabriquées en acier que les coins et les extrémités puissent provoquer des coupures en cas de mauvaise manipulation au cours des procédures d’assemblage. Soyez prudent lors de toute manipulation de pièce au cours du montage. Nous vous recommandons fortement de protéger vos mains avec une paire de gants de travail.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products which are on the list of substances known
by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances always operate this unit according to the use and care manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.
INSTALLATION Natural Gas Grills
Location of Your Grill
• Your Ducane® Gas Grill is manufactured for outdoor use only! Any grill, charcoal
or gas, produces carbon monoxide while in operation and the gas should not be |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
allowed to accumulate in a confined area. Never operate this grill inside a building |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or any enclosed area such as your home, garage or recreational vehicle. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• When locating your grill, choose a safe outdoor location away from flammable |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or combustible surfaces and out of traffic paths. Ducane® strongly recommends a |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
24” clearance to combustible surfaces and 120”(10 feet) to any fuel containers or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
propane cylinders. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• Consult your local codes for possible additional restrictions on location or operation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of your grill. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• As your grill uses gas, it requires air to burn properly. Do not locate your grill in |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
such manner or as to obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the |
|
24” |
||||||
grill. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• When possible, adjust your grills’ position to reduce the likelihood of wind blowing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
onto it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION: Never operate your grill under any overhead |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
combustible construction. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION: This grill is not intended to be installed in or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
120” |
|
attached to a recreational vehicle. It is also not intended to |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be installed in or on a boat. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WARNING: For your safety, do not store or use gasoline or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
any other appliance. Failure to follow this warning could lead |
|
|
|
|
|

to a fire, explosion and bodily harm. |

Assembly
Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed with each grill giving specific assembly procedures for each model. Follow these instructions carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill.
Leveling
It is important for the proper operation of the grill that it be located on a level surface.

CONNECTION Natural Gas Grills
Type of Gas
Your natural gas grill is factory built to operate using natural gas only. Never attempt to operate your grill on gases other than the type specified on the grill rating plates. Your grill operates at 7” of water column pressure. If replacement of the hose becomes necessary, factory specified parts are required. See your local dealer.
For safety and design reasons, the conversion of a Ducane® grill from operation using Natural gas to operation using LP gas requires the change out of the entire gas supply system of the grill. If this becomes necessary, see your dealer for additional information.
What is Natural Gas?
Natural gas, often called methane, is a safe modern fuel. Natural gas is supplied by your local utility and should be readily available if your house is already heated with gas.
Portable Installation
Limited portability can be afforded to the grill head when mounted on the portable cart. All grill heads mounted on this portable cart and cabinet model grills so equipped can be moved about 10 feet away from the main gas supply. Ducane recommends moving the grill at least two (2) feet from the gas supply and any combustible surfaces. After the gas supply has been run and checked for leaks in accordance to the assembly instructions, you are ready to grill. To connect the hose to the gas supply, pull back the outer fitting, insert the hose fitting all of the way, and release the outer fitting. This process will produce a gas joint.
Follow special storage instructions located in the Helpful Hints section of this manual for proper care of your grill and its gas hose.
NATURAL GAS INSTALLER’S GUIDE
This guide is a recommendation for natural gas installations. It advises the installer as to the size tubing that is necessary on a natural gas installation depending on how far the grill is located from the house. All tubing should be anticorrosive tin-lined copper or an AGA-approved alternate. Operating pressure of the grill is 7” water column pressure. This should be verifi ed after the installation is complete. Comparable sized black iron pipe is also acceptable for natural gas lines.

Gas Leaks Checks
Before operating your grill, check carefully to be certain that all connections are tight and there are no gas leaks. Never use a match or flame for leak detection. Use soapy water or testing solution. Brush the solution on to connection points and look closely for bubbles indicating escaping gas. If leaks are detected, shut off the main gas supply valve and securely retighten connections, then repeat the leak test.

CONNECTION Natural Gas Grills
CAUTION: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (14” wc).
CAUTION: The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (14” wc).
WARNING: Never use an open flame when testing for gas leaks! Use of an open flame may result in serious bodily injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage to property.
IMPORTANT
If there are local codes that apply to portable gas grills, you will have to conform to them. Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2,or the Standard for Recreational Vehicles, ANSI A 119.2/NFPA 1192, and CSA Z240 RV Series, Recreational Vehicle Code, as applicable.
IMPORTANT
When connecting or replacing any gas pipe or fi ttings, all joints must be sealed with leak-proof sealing compound approved for use with natural and propane gases. After making connections, check all joints for leaks using soapy water and a brush.
Gas Leak Checks
Remove Control Panel for Leak Testing
1.Remove control knobs.
2.Remove the two (2) screws and washers holding each valve to the control panel and control knob bezel.
3.Loosen the control panel by removing two (2) screws from each side of the front control panel.
4.Pull control panel away from grill.
Never use a match or flame for leak detection. Use soapy water or testing solution. Brush the solution onto connection points and look closely for bubbles indicating escaping gas. If leaks are detected, shut off the main gas supply valve and securely retighten connections, then repeat the leak test.
WARNING: Never use an open flame when testing for gas leaks. Use of an open flame may result in serious bodily injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage to property.
