Instructions For Cleaning
CAUTION: Grill surfaces are hot during use. Allow Grill Plate, Drip Tray, Lid
and Grill Body to cool completely before handling and cleaning.

Turn the Temperature Control Knob to the LOCK/OFF position and allow the
Grill to cool before disassembling and cleaning.

Remove the Regulator Assembly and propane cylinder.

Remove the Grill Plate and empty the Drip Tray.
4.
Wash the Grill Plate and Drip Tray with warm, soapy water and a plastic
scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use steel wool, coarse
scouring pads or harsh or abrasive cleaners. If necessary, use a nylon bris-
tle brush to loosen hardened food particles.

Wash exterior parts with a soft sponge and warm clear water. Nonabrasive
cleaners may also be used.
6.
Use a damp cloth to clean the inside of the Lid and Grill Body.
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
IMPORTANT:
Clean the burner assembly prior to use after storing, at the begin-
ning of the grilling season or an inactive period of one month. Spiders and
insects like to build nests in burner tubes, especially during colder months. The
nests can cause fires in burner tubes or under grill.
In order to clean the inside of the burner tubes, the Burner Assembly must be
removed from the Grill. Make sure the Regulator Assembly, propane cylinder,
Grill Plate and Drip Tray have been removed before proceeding.
1.
Turn the Grill Body upside down
and locate the two machine
screws that secure the Burner
Assembly to the Grill. Refer to
Figure 6. Loosen and remove these
screws, making sure you retain the
screws, washers and nuts for
reassembly.
2.
Turn the Grill Body to the upright
position. Remove the screw and
nut that secures the Regulator
Spring Clip to its Mounting Bracket,
making sure to retain the hardware
for reassembly. Lift and remove the
Mounting Bracket by pulling slightly
to the right while pressing the
Regulator Spring Clip (to open it wide enough for removal) and set to the
side. See Figure 7.
3.
Carefully pull back on the Burner Assembly.
NOTE:
The ignitor is still
attached to the Burner Assembly, however, there is enough slack available
to allow you to look into the end of the venturi and clean with a pipe cleaner
if needed.
