TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS

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

WARNING: Never check for gas leaks with open flame.

Grate

Grate Steps

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 9).

3.Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas odor, or flame from any area other than the burner (leaks). If leaks are de- tected, shut off the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reas- semble 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. Note: The burner design in- cludes more ports on the outside of the bar. Make sure that all ports are clear and producing flame evenly across the burner. If any ports appear 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

Figure 12 - Installing Grate (Pan Material Not Shown)

1.Open the bag of ash bed material (vermiculite) and spread it evenly across the burner pan to the top. You may overflow the front and sides of the pan to cover the entire pan. Do not cover valve or inlet fitting.

2.Open the glowing embers and evenly cover the ash bed mate- rial (vermiculite) in the burner pan.

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 notches in the rear vertical edge of the pan.

2.Slide the two rear log grate steps over the two outer horizontal supports on the grate as shown in Figure 12.

3.Place the back log on the grate onto the grate steps (see Figure 13).

4.Place the front log(s) on the grate and slide forward against the front bars on the grate (see Figure 13).

5.Place the smaller top logs onto the bottom logs (see Figure 14). Leave as much open space between logs as possible to mini- mize flame impingement and sooting. Note: Logs may chip if they are handled roughly or if hit together while being placed.
