BURNER 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.
BURNER ASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE:
• Although your burners are constructed of stainless steel, they may corrode as a result of the extreme
heat and acids from cooking foods. Regularly inspect the burners for cracks, abnormal holes, and
other signs of corrosion damage. If found, replace the burner.
• DO NOT block ventilation areas in sides, back or cart compartment of grill. Burner tubes can become
blocked by spiders and other insects building their nests. Blocked burner tubes can prevent gas flow to
the burners 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 bolt from each burner "foot" using a screwdriver.
4. Carefully lift each 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 or use compressed air to blow
into burner tube and out the flame ports. Check each port to
make sure air comes out each hole.
CAUTION: Wear eye protection when using compressed air.
6. Use a wire brush to clean the entire outer surface of burner to
remove food residue and dirt.
7. Check burner for damage, if any cracks or holes are
found replace burner.
8. Install burner in grill and carefully align crossover channels between
burners and orient burners CORRECTLY.
IMPORTANT: Burner opening must slide over valve nozzle.
9. Replace bolts to each burner and crossover channel.
Note: Follow the "Gas Leak Testing" section of this
manual. Relight burners to verify proper operation.
10. Replace heat distribution plates and cooking grills.
