GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This installation guide provides you with easy to fol-
low illustrations and instructions to assemble your
MHP Gas Barbecue Grill.
Before you start assembling and using your MHP
Gas Barbecue Grill we recommend that you read
through all precautions, safe guards and instruc-
tions to avoid any personal injury or property
damage.
Check Local Codes. Contact your local LP dealer or
Natural Gas company for recommended installation
procedures and regulations. If there are no local
codes, installation must conform to the latest National
Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1. For Canada, installa-
tion must comply with local codes and/or Standard
CAN/CGA-B-149-1 for natural gas installation and
CAN/CGA- B-149-2 for propane installation.
For LP Gas Models the supplied Gaslow GS-801
Regulator must be used. Any replacement pressure
regulator or hose assembly must meet or exceed the
specifications of the Gaslow GS-801 Regulator.
For Natural Gas Models the grill is designed to oper-
ate at a pressure of 7” water column (W.C.) (1.75
kPa). Check your gas utility for local pressure. Pres-
sures other than approximately 7” W.C. could affect
the performance of your grill.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
There are 9 steps to assembling your MHP Gas Bar-
becue Grill: The mounting, LP tank mounting, control
panel, gas supply connection, grill lid, lid handle, side
shelves, and rock grate, cooking grid and warming
rack.
The grill itself is partially assembled with the Burner,
Venturis, Ignitor Collector Box and the Gaslow Regu-
lator installed.
The JNR and WNK grills are specifically designed to

OPERATING SAFEGUARDS
General Instructions
SAFETY
YOUR GRILL IS DESIGNED FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
It should also not be used in an enclosed area such as a shed
or garage because combustion uses available oxygen and dis-
charges carbon monoxide.
The grill must be located no closer than 24" from any combus-
tible surface behind or to the sides. Grill should not be located
under overhead unprotected combustible surfaces.
Keep the area around the grill clear of combustible materials,
flammable vapors or liquids such as gasoline.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
