CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Fig. 48
Note:
When replacing grill and/or smoker burners, or orifices following cleaning, confirm orifice penetration into burner as shown in Fig. 48
Be careful not to upset the air shutters’ original |
|
|
position (unless readjusting). Lower the rear of the |
| Cap |
burner into the cutouts on the support channel at the |
| |
rear of the burner box. Make sure it is level and does |
|
|
not rock. Light all of the burners and check for proper |
|
|
flame characteristics. If adjustments are necessary, |
|
|
refer to page 17. Do this prior to cooking on the grill. | Brass Ring Locat- | Main |

For proper lighting and performance keep the burners |

clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if they do |

When the grates and burners are cool, remove the |
| Base |
grate. The burner cap and the brass port ring can |
|
|
easily be lifted off. Wash these parts in hot soapy |
|
|
water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The burner caps are |
| Venturi |
porcelain enamel. Follow the directions on the |
|
|
previous page for cleaning that were given for the | Locating Holes |
|
burner grates. A bristle brush can be used to clean |
| |
|
| |
out the toothed burner ports, if necessary. After |
|
|
cleaning, it is important to make sure the location pins | FIG. 49 |
|
on the bottom side of the port ring are properly |
|
|
aligned with the corresponding holes in the base. |
|
|
Incorrect alignment will produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner performance (see Fig. 49).
SMOKER BURNER:
The smoker burner can be removed and cleaned by unplugging the electrode wire and lifting out the burner. Cleaning is similar to the grill burner. Replace the burner by sliding the air shutter over the brass orifice, centering it in the hole.
