PRE-ASSEMBLY
Read and perform the following pre-assembly instruc-
tions:
Tools Required for Assembly
:
protective work gloves
protective eyewear
For your safety, obtain assistance from another
person when assembling this product.
Open Lid of shipping carton and remove top sheet of
cardboard and packing materials. Lay cardboard
sheet on floor and use as a work surface to protect
floor and side burner parts from scratches.
You may slice the carton front corners with a utility
knife to lay open the carton front panel. This allows
you to remove the components packed inside before
lifting the side burner out of the packaging.
Use the Hardware and Part Diagrams to ensure all
items are included and free of damage.
Do not assemble or operate the side burner if it ap-
pears damaged. If there are damaged or missing parts
when you unpack the shipping box or you have ques-
tions during the assembly process call:

CAUTION
!
!
Failure to comply with these instructions may result
in a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may
result in injury.
For safe operation ensure the Gas Valve Assem-
bly Orifice is inside the Burner Tube before using
your side burner. See figure. If the Orifice is not
inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may
cause explosion and/or fire resulting in serious
bodily injury and/or property damage.
METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat hanger
into a small hook as shown and run the hook
through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner
several times to remove debris.
METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible
handle and run the brush through the Burner
Tube and inside the Burner several times to
remove any debris.
METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air through
each Burner Tube. The forced air should pass
debris or obstructions through the Burner and out
the Ports.

4. Refer to the figure below and perform one of these
3 cleaning methods:
Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the Gas
Valve Orifice.
Check and clean Burner/Venturi Tubes for insects
and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire
beneath the side burner.
Spiders and small insects can spin webs and nest
in the Burner Tubes during transit and warehousing
which can lead to a gas flow obstruction resulting
in a fire in and around the Burner Tubes. This type
of "FLASHBACK FIRE" can cause serious side
burner damage and create an unsafe operating
condition for the user.
To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK FIRE
you must clean the Burner Tubes as follows
before initial use.
Also do this at least once a
month in summer and fall or whenever spiders are
active in your area, and if your side burner has not
been used for an extended period of time.
Remove the screws from the side burner body and the
rear of each Burner using a Phillips Head Screw-
driver.
