codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or Natural Gas and

Propane Installation Code, CSA/CGA-B149.1.

2 This grill is intended for use outdoors and should not be used in a building, garage or any

other enclosed or covered area.

3 This outdoor grill is not intended for installation in or on recreation vehicles and/or boats.

4 A minimum clearance of 36 inches from combustible constructions to the sides of the grill

and 36 inches from the back of the grill to combustible constructions must be maintained.

This outdoor cooking gas appliance must not be placed under overhead combustible

construction.

5 The use of an electrical source requires that when installed, the grill must be electrically

grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with

ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1. Keep electrical supply cords

and the fuel supply hose away from heated surfaces.

6 Inspect the hoses before each use for excessive abrasion or wear, or cuts that may affect

safe operation of the grill. If there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is

cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being put into operation. The replacement hose

assembly must be those specified by the manufacturer.

7 Keep your grill in an area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other

flammable vapors and liquids.

8 DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to this appliance.

9 Keep the ventilation openings of the tank enclosure free and clear from debris.

10 Check all gas connections for leaks with a soapy water solution and brush. Never use an

open flame to check for leaks.

11 Never use charcoal in the grill.

12 Never use the grill in windy areas.

SAFETY INFORMATION

4 Lowes.com/masterfor

15 The pressure regulator for LP-gas grill is set for 11-in. water column (WC). Natural gas grill

provides a hose assembly which includes a quick-disconnect device. But no pressure

regulator. The LP pressure regulator or the Natural gas hose assembly must be used.

Replacement pressure regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified in the

part list.

16 The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.

17 Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this appliance.

18 Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.

19 If the information in “17” and “18” is not followed exactly, a fire

causing death or serious injury may occur.

20 The natural gas grill 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 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).

21 The outdoor cooking gas 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

system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).

22 CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates

some byproducts which are on the list of substances known by the State of California to

cause cancer, reproductive harm, or other birth defects. To reduce exposure to these

substances, always operate this unit according to the use and care manual, ensuring you

provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.

IMPORTANT: We urge you to read this manual carefully and follow the recommendations

enclosed. This will ensure you receive the most enjoyable and trouble-free operation of your

new gas grill. We also advise you retain this manual for future reference.

WARNING: Your grill has been designed to operate using only the gas specified by the

manufacturer on the rating plate. Do not attempt to operate your grill on other gases. Failure

to follow this warning could lead to a fire hazard and bodily harm and will void your warranty.

WARNING: Make certain your LP (propane) tank is filled by a reputable propane dealer. An

incorrectly filled or an overfilled LP tank can be dangerous. The overfilled condition combined

with the warming of the LP tank (a hot summer day, tank left in the sun, etc.) can cause LP

gas to be released by the pressure relief valve on the tank since the temperature increase

causes the propane to expand. LP gas released from the tank is flammable and can be

explosive. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for more information concerning filling your LP tank.

SAFETY TIPS

5 Lowes.com/masterfor

Never pull your grill. Always push it.

Never move your grill while it is in operation or still hot.

Always use a protected hand when cleaning the grid surface after the post-heating period

and when closing the propane tank valve.

Use a covered hand during the grilling period.

Wait until the burner box has completely cooled before reaching under to turn off the gas.

Using an uncovered hand to turn off the LP tank valve without allowing the grill to cool

down could result in severe burns.

Never operate your grill under overhangs, awnings or any covered or enclosed area.

Never spray liquid on the grid area to control flare ups.

To guard against possible grease fires getting out of control, never leave a grill

unattended. Grease fires can be severe and cause grill damage, property damage and

bodily harm.

Always turn off the control knob first, and then the propane gas supply tank.

Never cover your grill while it is still warm.

Position your portable grill away from direct wind.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable substances in the vicinity of your gas grill.

Never store a propane tank (whether full or empty) inside your home or living area.

Before storing your tank, make sure that it has been turned to the “OFF” position.

Should you store your grill indoors, be sure to close the tank valve, disconnect the hose

from the tank, remove the tank from the grill and store the tank outdoors.

Make sure the grill hood is completely open before lighting your grill.

When connecting or replacing any gas fittings, all joints must be sealed with an approved,

leak-proof sealing compound.

Never use an open flame to test for gas leaks.

When your grill is not in use, it is recommended that for child safety, you remove the

control knobs and store them indoors.

Keep children away from the grill at all times.

Never drill out any orifice or make any field alterations to your grill without receiving

approval from the manufacturer.

Do not store flammable materials in any of the cabinets beneath the grill burner box or in

the vicinity of your grill.

Be careful while handling any parts during assembly. It is strongly recommended that you

protect your hands with a pair of work gloves.

At high temperatures some stainless grids may discolor over time. When the grill is cool,

wiping with a towel and vegetable oil may remove and treat some of this effect. Some

discoloration is normal.
