Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.
1.
Turn gas OFF at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and flame tamers.
3.
Remove carryover tubes and burners.
4.
5.
Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.
(A)
Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
tube several times.
(B)
Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection:
Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.
6.
Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
7.
Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper clip.
8.
Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or
holes are found replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve
openings. See illustrations at right.
9. Attach electrode to burner.
10. Carefully replace burners.
11. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.
12. Reposition carryover tubes and attach
to burners. Replace flame tamers and
cooking grates.
Storing Your Grill
