BURNER ASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE
• Although your burner is constructed of stainless steel, it may corrode as a result of the extreme heat
and acids from cooking foods. Regularly inspect the burner for cracks, abnormal holes, and other signs
of corrosion damage. If found, replace the burner.
• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Burner tubes can become blocked by
spiders and other insects building their nests. Blocked burner tubes can prevent gas flow to the burner
and could result in a burner tube fire or fire beneath the grill. To clean the Burner Assembly follow
these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting the
grill.
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder tank valve.
2. Remove cooking grills and heat distribution plates.
3. Remove screws from beneath each burner "foot" using a screwdriver.
4. Carefully lift the burner up and away from valve openings.
5. Use a narrow bottle brush or a stiff wire bent into a small
hook to run through each burner tube and flame port
several times.
NOTE: Wear eye protection when performing procedure 6.
6. Use compressed air to blow into burner tubes and out the
flame ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.
7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
8. Check burner for damage, if any large cracks or holes are found replace burner.
IMPORTANT: Burner openings must slide over valve nozzles.
9. Carefully replace burner.
10. Replace screws beneath each burner foot and
follow the "Gas Leak Testing" section of this
manual. Relight burners to verify proper operation.
11. Replace heat distribution plates and cooking grills.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE:
• Keep the appliance free and clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
• Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris.
• Visually check burner flames for proper operation (see pictorial in "Burner Assembly/Maintenance"
under Proper Care and Maintenance). Spiders or other insects can nest in the burner causing gas
blockage.
• For safe grilling and peak performance of your grill, perform these checks at least twice per year or
after extended periods of storage.
• Be sure to tighten up all hardware (nuts, bolts, screws, etc.) at least twice per year.
CAUTION! Some parts may contain sharp edges. Wear protective gloves if necessary.
• Remove the cooking grills, heat distribution plates, and burners from inside your grill. Use a brush with
hot water and detergent to remove excess residue. NEVER use a commercial oven cleaner. Rinse
completely with water. Towel dry and replace all components as described in the assembly instructions.
