Burner Inspection

Your Weber Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the air shutter. Figure 11. This could result in a fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.

Venturi

If a leak persists after retightening the fitting, turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact your dealer.

mWARNING: If there is a leak at connections 9 (a), 9 (b), 9 (c) or 10 (a), turn OFF the gas. Do not operate the barbecue. Contact your dealer.

mWARNING: If there is a leak at connection 10 (b), retighten and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution.

When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water.

The Weber Spider Stopper Guard is factory installed. It fits tightly around the air shutter section of the burner tube and the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the air shutter openings. Figure 12.
