Checking for Leaks
Burner Connections
Make sure the regulator valve and hose
connections are securely fastened to the
burner and the tank.
If your unit was assembled for you, visually
check the connection between the burner
pipe and orifice. Make sure the burner
pipe fits over the orifice.
WARNING: Failure to inspect
this connection or follow these
instructions could cause a fire
or an explosion which can cause
death, serious bodily injury, or
damage to property.
Please refer to diagram for proper
installation.
If the burner pipe does not rest flush to
the orifice, please contact 1.800.762.1142
for assistance.

part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts

to light burners manually. Access the burners through the cooking grid and heat
plates. Position the lit match near side of the burner.
Important:
Always use the lighting rod provided when lighting burners with a match.
9. After lighting, observe the burner flame, make sure all burner ports are lit and flame
