BURNER ASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE:

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 block ventilation areas in sides, back or cart compartment of grill. 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.

1.Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder tank valve.

2.Remove cooking grills and heat distribution plates.

3.Remove bolt from each burner “foot” using a screwdriver.

4.Carefully lift each crossover channel up and away from burners.

5.Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.

6.Use a narrow bottle brush or a stiff wire bent into a small hook to run through each burner tube or use compressed air to blow into burner tube and out the flame ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

CAUTION: Wear eye protection when using compressed air.

7. Use a wire brush to clean the entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.

8.Check burner for damage, if any cracks or holes are found replace burner.

9.Install burner in grill and carefully align crossover channels between burners and orient burners CORRECTLY.

IMPORTANT: Burner opening must slide over valve nozzle.

10.Replace bolts and nuts to each burner and crossover channel.

Note: Follow the “Gas Leak Testing” section of this manual. Relight burners to verify proper operation.

11.Replace heat distribution plates and cooking grills.
