Cleaning &Maintenance
1. Bend a stiff wire (a light-weight coat hanger
works well)into a small hook. Run the hook
through each burner tube and into the burner
several times.
2. Using a narrow bottle brush with a flexible
handle run the brush through each burner tube
and into the burner several times.
3. Use an air hose to force air through the burner
tube and out through the burners ports.
Observe each port and make sure air comes
out every hole.
Regardless of which burner tube cleaning
procedure you use. We recommend that you
complete the following steps to help prolong burner
life.
1. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to
remove food residue and dirt.
2. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire such
as an open paper clip.
3. Inspect the burner for damage(cracks or
holes)and if such damage is found, order and
install a new burner. After installation check to
insure the gas valve orifices are correctly
placed inside ends of burner tubes. Also check
position of spark electrode.
CLEANING THE GREASE TRAY
The grease tray should be emptied and wiped
down periodically and washed in a mild detergent
and warm water solution. A small amount of sand
or cat litter may be placed in bottom of grease tray
to absorb the grease.
ANNUAL CLEANING OF GRILL HOUSING
Burning-Off the grill after every cook out will keep it
ready for instant use; however once a year you
should give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to
keep it in top operating condition.

stop.)
3. DETACH the regulator assembly from tank
valve by turning the quick coupling nut
counter-clockwise.

tamers and burners.
5. Cover the gas valve orifices with a piece of
aluminum foil
.
6. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a
stiff wire brush, and wash down with a mild
soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly
and let dry.
7. Remove aluminum foil from orifices and check
orifices for obstruction.
8. Check spark electrode, adjusting as instructed
electrode tip pointing toward the tip of gas
collector and approximately 3¼16”from the tip
