INSTALLATION

TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS
1. Generously apply noncorrosive leak de-
tection fluid to all connections.
WARNING: Never check for
gas leaks with open flame.
2. Light burner with shutoff valve no more
than half open and holding a match
slightly in front of pan (see
Lighting In-
structions
, page 10).
3. Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw
gas odor or flame from any area other
than burner (leaks). If leaks are detected,
shut off gas valve immediately. Tighten
or reassemble loose connection(s) using
pipe joint compound until burner system
is leak free.
4. When burner is tested and leak free,
observe individual tongues of flame on
burner.
Note: Burner design includes more ports
on outside of the bar. Make sure that
all ports are clear and producing flame
evenly across burner. If any ports appear
blocked, clear them by removing burner
manifold and reaming ports with a modi-
fied paper clip or other suitable tool.
5. When finished testing, turn gas shutoff
valve OFF to extinguish all flames.
ADDING PAN MATERIAL
1. Open bags of ash bed material (vermicu-
lite) and spread it evenly across burner
pan to the top. You may overflow front
and sides of pan to cover the entire pan
and connecting hardware. Do not cover
GA9050A-1 or GA9150A valve.
2. Open glowing embers and evenly cover
ash bed material (vermiculite) in burner
pan.
INSTALLING GRATE AND LOGS
1. Place grate over burner pan. Grate should
“lock” into place over corners of pan (see
Figure 8).
2. Place one of the bottom logs on grate
and slide forward against front grate bars.
Repeat for other side (see Figure 9).

3. Place smaller top logs onto bottom logs
(see Figure 10). Leave as much open
space between logs as possible to mini-
mize flame impingement and sooting.
Note: Logs may chip if they are handled
roughly or if hit together while being
placed.
