stop using it and remedy the problem before continuing.

Improper Maintenance Hazard 

  

Improperly maintaining the appliance can cause a 

malfunction, which can result in serious injury or 

death. Always perform a pre-operation inspection of the 

appliance before use and correct any problems found.

Use Only Approved Replacement Parts 

 

Use only approved replacement hoses, valves,  

or regulators. The pressure regulator and hose 

assembly supplied with the appliance must be used. Re-

placement pressure regulators and hose assemblies shall

Maintenance Guidelines

  1.  Regularly inspect the burner for cracks, abnormal    

      holes, and other signs of significant corrosion or rust  

      damage.
      a.   The burner is constructed of cast iron and steel  

          and may rust as a result of the extreme heat and  

          splatter from acidic foods.
      b.   Wire brush the outer surface of the burner to    

          remove buildup of food particles, dirt, or other   

          cooking residue.
      c.   Outward surface rust does not affect the use of  

          the appliance.
      d.   Do not tamper with or attempt repairs on the    

          burners. Replace damaged burners with new    

          OEM parts.
      e.   Unauthorized modifications will void the  

 

          warranty.

WARNING

!

  2.  If the burner is hard to light or does not appear to    

      be working correctly, check for an internal    

 

      obstruction or replace the burner assembly.

Obstruction of combustion and 

ventilation airflow can prevent 

proper gas mixture inside the burner, resulting in a  

burner tube fire.

 

  3.  Inspect the inside of the burner tube for blockage    

      caused by insects or other small animals and/or    

      outdoor debris such as leaves, grass, etc.
      To remove any blockage:
      a.   Close the LP cylinder gas valve and shutoff valve.
      b.   Use a narrow bottle brush or a stiff wire to re   

          move any blockage.
