Maintenance
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
Before lighting, inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas “on”. If there is evidence
of cuts, wear or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use.
Grill Burner:
Remove grill lid, diffuser panel, grate, and burner. Remove the screws holding burner to grill body by
unscrewing counter-clockwise.
Grill Burner Flame Height:
If flames do not appear to be uniform throughout the burner tube, check if the ventilation openings of
the burner tube are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. In order for burner to work properly there
must be no obstructing the flow of combustion or ventilation air. Proceed with cleaning instructions
below
Grill Burner Exterior Cleaning:
The factory burners have been set for the correct air and
gas mixture. The correct flame pattern is shown in the
figure to the left.
1. Burner tube
2. Tips occasionally flicker yellow
3. Light blue
4. Dark blue
1. Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush.
2. Clean stubborn scale with a metal scraper.
3. Clear any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip.
4. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and
clog the port.
5. Shake out any debris.
6. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is
not blocked.
7. If obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat
hanger that has been straightened out.
8. Check and clean burner /venture tubes for insects and
insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath
the grill.
