Cleaning the Burner Assembly

CAUTION 

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and heat diffusers.
3. Remove attachment screw from rear of each burner. See Fig. 
A next page.
4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.

We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.

(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)

into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner

tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not use

a brass wire brush), run the brush through each burner tube
several times.

(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.

5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove

food residue and dirt.

6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an

open paper clip.

7. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and

corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large 
cracks or holes are found replace burner.

Spiders or small insects have been known to create “flashback” 
problems. The spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs in the grill’s 
venturi tube(s) obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. The 
backed-up gas can ignite in the venturi behind the control panel. This 
is known as a flashback and it can damage your grill and even cause 
injury. 

To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and 
venturi assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned   
before use whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period. 

VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve 
openings. See illustrations below. 

8. Carefully replace burners. See Fig. A and B next page.
9. Attach rear of each burner to bracket with screw. See Fig.
A next page.
10. Replace heat diffusers and cooking grates.

Storing Your Grill 

•Clean cooking grates.
•Store in dry location.
•When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a

well-ventilated space and out of reach of children.

•Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill covers

offered by manufacturer once available.

•Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and

Disconnected, remove from grill and stored outdoors.

• When removing grill from storage, follow “Cleaning the Burner

A

s

sembl

y

” instructions before starting grill.

SPIDER ALERT! 

If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that the 
flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the time to check and 
clean the venturi’s. 

IMPORTANT: Always ensure that the venturi burner tubes 
are clean. A venturi burner tube has a narrow area in 
which spiders tend to build nests. 

10 

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high quality
appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water
and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease
deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning
pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do
not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.
• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the
grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on
cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean
cooking surfaces while grill is hot.
•Drip Tray and Cup: Regularly clean the grease drippings from
the Drip Tray and Drip Cup. When the grill has completely
cooled down after use, remove the cup from the tray and slide
the tray out of the grill. Clean the grease drippings from the cup
and tray surfaces by washing with mild detergent or
nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a
soft nonabrasive cloth. Slide the tray back into the grill and
replace the cup back into the tray before using the grill again.
