To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK the procedure
below should be followed at least once a month in late
summer or early fall when spiders are most active or
when your grill has not been used for a period of time.
1. Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position.
2. Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.
3. Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your
gas grill.
4. Remove the Cooking Grids, Flame Tamers, and
Grease Trays from your grill.
5. Remove the Cotter Pin from the rear underside of
each Burner using a pair of long nose pliers.
6. Carefully lift each Burner up and awayfrom the
Gas Valve Orifice.
7. Checking and cleaning bumer/venturi tubes for
insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead
to a fire beneath the grill.
8. Refer to Fig. 1 and perform one of these
three cleaning methods:
Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger
works well) into a small hook as shown
below. Run the hook through the Burner
Tube and inside the Burner several times
to remove any debris. ,)
Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.
Run the brush through the Burner Tube
and inside the Burner several times, remov-
ing any debris.
Use an air hose to force air through each
Burner Tube. The forced air should pass
debris or obstructions through the Burner
and out the Ports.
Regardless of which Burner cleaning procedure you
use, we recommend you also complete the following
steps to help prolong Burner life.
1. Use a fiber pad or nylon brush to clean the entire
outer surface of each Burner until free of food
residue and dirt.
2.
3.
Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as
an open paper clip.
Inspect each Burner for damage (cracks or holes)
and if such damage is found, order and install a
new Burner. After installation, check to ensure
that the Gas Valve Orifices are correctly placed
inside the ends of the Burner Tubes. Also check
the position of your Spark Electrode.
Z WARNING
The location of the Burner Tube with re-
spect to the Orifice is vital for safe
operation. Check to ensure the Orifice is
inside the Burner Tube before using your
gas grill. See Fig. 2. If the Burner Tube
does not fit over the Valve Orifice, lighting
the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire.
