CLEANING YOUR GRILL
SPECIAL CLEANING FOR A1TS/B60 AND GRILLS
WITH BIG 60 BURNER
CLEANING THE BURNER
If your grill is equipped with a BIG 60 side power
burner, then periodically you should perform a
mild cleaning of the Pan Supports, Top Pan, and
the Burner. All procedures must be done when
the appliance is COLD and all control knobs
and main gas supply lines are turned OFF.
Start by removing the Pan Supports located on
top of the appliance. These supports can be
removed by lifting each one up from the center
and tilting them out from their retaining slots.
Continue
by removing the Top Pan
by simply
lifting up on the pan and separating it from the
grill body.
Both the Pan Supports and the Top Pan can be
placed in a sink of dish soap water (similar to
cleaning a kitchen pot or pan) and then gently
scrubbing them with a non-metallic medium grit
abrasive (like a sponge backed with Scotch-
Brite® or equivalent). Using metallic abrasives
(like steel wool) is NOT recommended since
portions of the steel fibers can remain on the
supports.
NOTE: in some cases, depending on the option,
a heavy duty bar grate is supplied with the Big
60 unit rather than a Top Pan and Pan Supports.
If this is the case, simply remove this grate for
cleaning and to access the burner.
Examine the Burner:
Once the Top Pan and Pan Supports (or the
grate) have been removed, the burner will be
clearly visible and accessible.
Check the burner for any dirt or debris that may
have fallen onto it. Clean the burner with a
brass or wire brush and look particularly for
clogged burner ports. Clear any visibly clogged
ports with a paper clip. Do NOT use a wooden
tooth pick as, this could break off inside the
port. In most cases, minor surface cleaning of
this burner is all that is needed to keep your grill
clean and working properly.
If you suspect that the burner may need a more
thorough cleaning, i.e., it appears to generate
reduced heat or the burner flames are solid
yellow, then the burner can be removed from
the grill for a deeper cleaning and adjustment.
