Although
your burners are constructed
of stainless
steel, they
may corrode as a result of the extreme heat and acids from
cooking
foods. Regularly
inspect the burners for cracks,
abnormal
holes, and other signs of corrosion
damage.
If found,
replace the burner.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation
air. Burner tubes can become blocked
by spiders and other
insects building their nests. Blocked
burner tubes can prevent
gas flow to the burners and could result in a burner tube fire or
fire beneath the grill. To clean the Burner Assembly
follow
these instructions
to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly
or if you have trouble
igniting the grill.
Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder tank valve.
Remove cooking
grills and heat diffusers.
Remove M5 bolt and M5 nut from each burner "foot"
using a
screwdriver.
Carefully
lift each crossover
channel and up and away from
burners.

Use compressed
air to blow into burner tube and out the flame
ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

by aligning screw hole in burner to the
left as shown. The burner should be equal distant
between
the
crossover
chaRnels.

PROPER
BURNER
OPERATION
COOKING GRILLS
Clean with mild soap detergent
and water. A brass bristled
brush or a nylon cleaning
pad can be used to remove residue
from the stainless
steel surfaces.
Do not use steel wire bristles
to clean the cooking
grills. Steel can cause the finish to chip or
crack. DO NOT use a commercial
oven cleaner.
HEAT DIFFUSERS
Periodically,
it may be necessary
to inspect and clean the heat
diffusers
to prevent excess grease build-up.
When the grill is
cold, remove the cooking
grills. Inspect
the heat diffusers
and
replace if broken or damaged.
Do not allow heat diffusers
to
become damaged
to the extent that they may fall through onto
the burners. Replace the heat diffusers
and cooking
grills and
light the burners. Operate the grill on "Hi" for 10 minutes
to
remove the excess grease.
BEFORE STORING YOUR GRILL:
Ensure that the cylinder
valve is fully closed.
Clean all surfaces.
Lightly coat the burners with cooking
oil to prevent excess
rusting.
If storing the grill indoors,
disconnect
the LP tank and leave the
LP tank OUTDOORS.
Place a protective
cap cover on the LP tank and store the tank
outdoors
in a well ventilated
area out of direct sunlight.
•
Clean burner prior to use after storing, at the beginning
of
grilling season or after a period of one month not being used.
Spiders and insects like to build nests in burner tubes
(especially
during colder months). These nests can cause fires
in burner tubes or under grill.
•
If storing the grill outdoors,
cover the grill with a grill cover for
protection
from the weather.
