ANNUAL MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE MAIN BURNER

To clean the gas ports of your main burners use a stiff bristle brush to brush the openings.

Refer to: Inspection and Cleaning of the Spider/Insect Screens for the removal of the burner tube.

You can now lift the burner tube out of the burner box and inspect inside with a flashlight.

Clean the inside of the burners with a wire (a straightened-out coat hanger will work). Check and clean the air shutter openings at the ends of the burners.

Check and clean the valve orifices on the valves. Use a steel bristle brush to clean the outside of the burners. This is to make sure that all burner ports are fully open.

WARNING: Do not enlarge the burner ports when cleaning.
