and debris. DO NOT BEND OR DAMAGE THE IGNITION PROBE.
After cleaning burner assembly and the lower housing of grill, reinstall
burner. TURN YOUR GAS SUPPLY (LP OR NAT) ON AND TEST ALL
FITTINGS FOR LEAKS. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO LIGHT GRILL, BE
CERTAIN BOTH VALVES ARE IN THE OFF POSITION. TURN GAS
SUPPLY ON, (leaving both control knobs to the "OFF" position). CHECK
ALL CONNECTIONS WITH A SOLUTION OF 50% LIQUID SOAP, 50%
WATER. SOLUTION CAN BE SPRAYED ON WITH A SPRAY BOTTLE OR
PAINTED ON ALL CONNECTIONS WITH A BRUSH. IF BUBBLES
APPEAR, TURN OFF GAS, TIGHTEN FITTINGS AND TRY AGAIN. Before
putting rock grates, rock and cooking grids back, test for proper ignition.
We also recommend keeping your grill covered at all times
when not is use. For cleaning all stainless-steel surfaces, use a good
grade of stainless cleaner such as our PGS “SSC” (spray Stainless Steel
Cleaner) or our SS Wipes (towelettes with cleaner on them). To
maintain cooking grids, we recommend brushing with a grill cleaning
brass brush after grill has completely cooled. A light vegetable oil on
grids just before cooking will prevent food from sticking to the surface.
NEVER PLACE COOKING GRIDS IN A SELF-CLEANING OVEN. If grids
are very dirty, you may want to place them in a plastic bag with one cup
of ammonia in it, place in sunshine for a day, thoroughly rinse and put
back in grill. Be sure to oil before using.
FLARE-UPS
When you cook fatty foods over an open flame, you can expect flare-ups.
Natural juices falling on the hot briquettes result in flame and smoke
that give foods cooked on your grill that delicious outdoor flavor and
appearance. Expect and encourage a MODERATE amount of flare-up.
We suggest that you trim off excess fat before cooking. Excessive
flare-ups occur when cooking extra fatty foods, or if cooking
temperatures are too high. To control flare-ups:
➢ Turn your control knob(s) to a lower heat setting.
➢ Move the meat to another part of the grill, if possible. With
multiple burners, you can cook on one side and move food, as
necessary to the unlighted side or lower heat setting.
➢ Cook with the lid open to reduce heat inside of grill head.
Periodically flip rock so that it can self-clean.
➢ If you need to immediately control any excessive flare-up, spray
the flame with water or throw a small amount of baking soda
directly on briquettes (avoid baking soda on food).
FLASHBACK
In many areas, spiders or small insects have been found to create
"flashback" problems. The spiders spin webs and/or insects build nests
in the grill's venturi tube(s). The web and/or nests can lead to gas flow
obstruction, which can damage your grill as it results in a "flashback" (a
fire in the venturi tube(s). See illustration below. The grill may still
light, but the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the burner.
Therefore, some gas will back up and escape at the venturi air shutter.
This will ignite, causing flashback, which could also
damage your grill (see illustration). To remove spider
webs and/or other obstructions, you must remove the
burner and clean out the venturi with a long narrow
bottlebrush.
Spider webs inside venturi
THIS SHOULD BE DONE ROUTINELY AFTER THE GRILL HAS SET IDLE
FOR EXTENDED PERIODS. Your PGS grill has fine mesh brass screening
placed inside the burner venturis to minimize this problem. Please DO
NOT damage or remove these screens when you clean your burners.
BE CERTAIN THAT YOUR GAS SUPPLY IS OFF AND THE GAS
FEED LINE HAS BEEN BLED OF ANY FUEL. REMOVE BURNER
AS DESCRIBED IN THE PERIODIC CLEANING SECTION.
CLEAN OUT THE VETURI WITH A VENTURI CLEANING BRUSH,
PIPE CLEANERS, OR ANOTHER SIMILAR ITEM.
BE CERTAIN THAT THE BURNER VENTURI’S ARE FULLY
ENGAGED ON VALVES AT LEAST 1/2”.
If you live in an area where spiders are plentiful, you should make it a
point to clean the venturis often. You may want to spray around the
bottom of your cart or masonry enclosure with an insect repellent on a
regular basis. You may also put MOTH BALLS in the bottom of your
cart or masonry enclosure. PLEASE BE CERTAIN TO KEEP THEM AWAY
FROM ANIMALS AND CHILDREN.
BEFORE LIGHTING YOUR GRILL:
TURN YOUR GAS SUPPLY (LP OR NAT) ON AND
TEST ALL FITTINGS FOR LEAKS. BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO LIGHT GRILL, BE CERTAIN
BOTH VALVES ARE IN THE OFF POSITION. TURN
GAS SUPPLY ON, (leaving both control knobs to
the "OFF" position) AND CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS WITH A
SOLUTION OF 50% LIQUID SOAP, 50% WATER. SOLUTION
CAN BE SPRAYED ON WITH A SPRAY BOTTLE OR PAINTED ON
ALL CONNECTIONS WITH A BRUSH. IF BUBBLES APPEAR,
TURN OFF GAS, TIGHTEN FITTINGS AND TRY AGAIN. NEVER
TEST FOR LEAK(S) WITH MATCH OR AN OPEN FLAME..
NOTE: Replace “AA” battery when sparks noticeably slow
down or every six months, whichever is first. If you are not
going to use your grill for 30 days or more, remove battery.
GAS GRILL CONVERSION!!!
Your PGS Legacy grill has been designed, produced,
and tested using dedicated Natural Gas or Propane
(LP) gas components (valves, orifices, regulators,
hoses, controls, burners, ignition system
calibrations etc.
PGS (AEI Corporation) does not support, authorize, or
approve of any in the field conversions from one fuel to
another.
Improperly converting a unit in the field, will most likely result
in significant damage to your unit and will pose a significant
safety risk and/or property damage, personal injury or death.
Any in field attempted conversions and resulting damage to
the product violates all warranties.
GRILL TROUBLESHOOTING
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this or any other grill, and
may cause the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is a very
dangerous condition, which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve
panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
You should inspect the burners at least twice a year or immediately if
any of the following conditions occur:
