BURNER FLAME / AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas
supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the U-burners should be visually checked.
Flames should be blue and stable with little to no yellow tips, no excessive noise or lifting. If any of these
conditions exist, remove the burner and check to see if any air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris,
spider webs, etc. if it is clear, the air shutter may need to be adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE GRILL BURNER FLAME
- The amount of air is controlled by a sheet metal cup at the
inlet of the burner called an air shutter. It is locked in place by a set screw which must be loosened prior to lighting
the burner for adjustment. The air shutter adjustment screws are accessible with a phillips screwdriver. Loosen
the lock screw of the air shutter. Adjust according to the following directions
. Be careful as the burner may be
very hot.
•
If the flame is yellow, indicating insufficient air, turn the air shutter counter-clockwise to allow more air
to the burner.
•
If the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, indicating too much air, turn the air shutter
clockwise.
Remember to tighten the set screw prior to re-installing the burner.
ENSURE THAT THE BURNERS ARE SITTING PROPERLY ON THE ORIFICES BEFORE
LIGHTING THE BURNERS.
