CARE & MAINTENANCE
3)
GRILL BURNER CLEANING
- Be sure the tank valve and the knobs are in the “OFF” position. Make sure
the grill is cool.
- Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with
a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never
use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port.
- Please note that if insects or other obstructions are blocking the flow of gas
through the burner, you will need to call our customer service line.
VERY IMPORTANT: The orifice of the valve must be located in the center
of the burner section after removal and cleaning. Otherwise, it may
cause serious bodily injury and property damage. Swing the burner
slightly after replacing to check whether it has been installed properly.
4)
GREASE CUP CLEANING
The grease cup should be emptied and wiped down periodically and washed
in a mild detergent and warm water solution. A small amount of sand may be
placed in bottom of the grease cup to absorb the grease.
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners after storing. These nests can cause
fires inside the tube or beneath the grill. This is a very dangerous condition. So
always clean the burners before use.
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
Inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately if any of the following
conditions occur:
1) Yellow flame with burning smell.
2) Temperature wont rise.
3) Heats unevenly.
4) Burners make popping noises.
