cement (gravel) up to the gas line access hole.
Keep in mind that the gas line access hole is on
the back of the post and the notch at the top if fac-

2. Run the gas supply line into the post access hole
(just above the cement). Make a 90° bend to reach
the access door opening.
The gas supply line should be trenched at least 18
inches below the surface of the ground to prevent
damage from digging. CAUTION: The gas supply
line must be regulated (in the case of natural
gas that means connected after your gas meter
and regulator) and that you have an easily ac-
cessible shut-off valve.
3. At the access door connect a 3/8" flare coupling
(not supplied by MHP) to the gas supply line and
Stainless Steel tubing. Position the tubing in the top
notch of the post. Bend the tubing at the top end to
match the Feed Line of the grill valve. Do not kink
the tubing.
