Before lighting, inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to
turning the gas “on”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear or abrasion,
it must be replaced prior to use.

ture. The correct fl ame pattern is shown in (FIG. 04).

are blocked by dirt, debris,
spider webs, etc. In order for
burner to work properly there
must be no obstructing the fl ow

Grill Burner Exterior Cleaning:
Clean the exterior of the burner

Clear any clogged ports with
a straightened paper clip (FIG.

inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not blocked (FIG. 05A). If
obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has
been straightened out.

With burner removed remove the orifi ce and shine a fl ashlight
through the opening to ensure there is no blockage. Use a
needle to clear any debris. Be extremely careful not to enlarge
the hole or break off the needle.
