TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS

1.Generously apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to all connections.

WARNING: Never check for gas leaks with open flame.

2.Light the burner with the shutoff valve no more than half open and holding a match slightly in front of the pan (see Lighting Instructions, page 10).

3.Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas odor, or flame from any area other than the burner (leaks). If leaks are detected, shut off the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reassemble the loose connection(s) using pipe joint compound until burner system is leak free.

4.When the burner is tested and leak free, observe the individual tongues of flame on the burner. Make sure that all ports are clear and producing flame evenly across the burner. If any ports ap- pear blocked, clear them by removing the burner manifold and reaming the ports with a modified paper clip or other suitable tool.

5.When finished testing, turn the gas shutoff valve OFF to ex- tinguish all flames.

ADDING PAN MATERIAL

1.Open the bag of glowing embers and spread it evenly over the burner ramp.

2.Open the small bag of platinum embers and place them ran- domly throughout the ember bed; more heavily near the front of the ramp.

INSTALLING THE GRATE AND LOGS

1.Place the grate over the burner pan where the two outer hori- zontal supports on the grate fit into the two pan positioning tabs on the outer edges of the pan.

2.Place the large back log on the grate at the top tier (rear) of the ramp. (see Figure 16).

3.Figures 16 and 17 show a suggested log arrangement, however you may arrange the logs as you wish. Leave as much open space between logs as possible to minimize flame impingement and sooting. Note: Logs may chip if they are handled roughly or if hit together while being placed.
