BURNERS
For proper lighting and performance
keep the burners clean. It is necessary
to clean the burners if they do not
light even though the igniter clicks, if
there has been a severe boil over, or
when the flame does not burn blue.
Be certain all burner knobs are in the
off position before attempting to
clean the burners. The burners have
been designed for ease in cleaning.
When the grates and burners are cool,
remove the grate. The burner cap and
the brass port ring can easily be lifted
off. Wash these parts in hot soapy
water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The
burner caps are porcelain enamel,
follow the directions on the previous
page that were given for the burner
grates. A bristle brush can be used to
clean out the toothed burner ports, if
necessary. Disassembly of the simmer
ring is not recommended, however, it
may become necessary to do so if the
ports remain clogged after normal
cleaning. If it is necessary to disassemble the simmer ring from the base,remove the hex nut at the top
of the simmer ring.Clean the simmer ring with hot soapy water using a soft wire or plastic bristle brush
then dry thoroughly. Re-assemble the parts using the hex nut. After cleaning, it is important to make
sure the locating pin on the bottom side of the simmer ring is properly aligned with the corresponding
hole in the base and that the locating pin (see insert) in the bottom side of the brass port ring is
properly aligned with the locating notch on the top side of the simmer ring. Incorrect alignment will
produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner performance (see fig. 14).
IGNITERS
Wipe with a water dampened cotton swab. Be careful
not to damage the igniter (see fig. 15).
