Check for Gas Leaks
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster
propane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected
cylinder has not been used recently, or when either a natural or
propane grill is being used for the first time.
WARNING
D
o not use an open flame when checking for leaks.
Checking for leaks with an open flame may lead to a fire or
explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.
To check for gas leaks:
1. Use water dish and a little dish washing liquid to make a
soapy solution.
2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.
3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound
indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.
5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.
6. If you see bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures until
all leaks are repaired.
Air Shutter Adjustment
The venturi air shutter(s) are preset at the factory so that after
five minutes the burner flames are blue with well-defined cones.
If, after five minutes the flame is yellow, or there is a gap between
the burner and the flame, adjust the venturi air shutter as follows:
1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.
2. Loosen shutter set screw.
3. Close the air shutter to the minimum opening.
4. Light the burner, wait five minutes and then carefully open
the air shutter until the flame is blue and well defined.
5. Retighten the set screw.
Heat Indicator Recalibration
The heat indicator can be recalibrated if needed. Remove the heat
indicator from the grill and place the probe end in a pot of boiling
water. Set the heat indicator by turning the screw in the end of
the stem until it reads 212 degrees. The indicator is now set.
