SECTION 5: UNPACKING, MOVING AND PLACING THE UNIT
Leaving the unit on the pallet, move the unit close to the final installation site. Unpack and remove all accessory items, packing
materials and product literature from inside the unit. Verify the gas supply type. If the unit is not compatible with the gas supply,
it will be necessary to convert it for use with the supply. See conversion instructions below.
LOCATING YOUR CHAR GLO ® BARBECUE
Natural Gas to Liquid Propane Conversion
All Models are manufactured at the factory for use with
natural gas, and as such require conversion for use with an
LP gas supply. The conversion should be done by a qualified
technician or your gas supplier. All orifices required for
conversion are provided with the units. The following steps
are necessary to convert for LP operation -
1. Make sure that the unit is disconnected from the gas and
electrical supplies.
2. Remove the grill grates and radiants. Unbolt the main
burners from their attachment at the rear of the burner
box and remove.
3. Remove the knobs and control panel from the unit.
4. Locate the main burner orifices. From inside control
panel area, locate the brass elbows that the orifices are
attached to. Use a wrench on the flats of these elbows
to keep them from turning during orifice removal and
installation. Remove the main burner orifices and replace
with the LP orifices supplied (marked 54). Do not over-
tighten orifices. Orifice must extend a minimum of 1/8"
into main burner air shutter with burner installed. Make
sure burner will not disengage from orifice.
