Natural Gas to Liquid Propane Conversion
Models CGB36RU, CGB48RU and CGB48RSBU 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..
5.
From behind the unit, remove the louvered cover on the
infrared rotis burner housing.
6.
Locate the infrared burner orifice and remove. Replace
with the LP orifice supplied (marked 59).
7.
Locate the smoker burner. Slide the orifice out of the
burner and remove. Replace with the LP orifice supplied
(marked 73). Reinstall the orifice into the burner.
8.
On Model CGB48RSBU, convert the side burners for LP
operation as follows:
A.
Remove the grate, burner caps, venturis and burner
bases. See Fig. 3, next page.
B.
Remove the burner orifices. Use a 7mm hex socket
on a 3" ratchet extension and apply a piece of tape
to the socket to hold the orifice in the socket while
removing. See Fig. 3A, next page.
C. Replace with the LP orifices supplied (number 115).
Tighten until snug. See Fig 3B, next page.
D. Reassemble the burner bases and venturis. Reinstall
burner caps and grate.
