If burner does not light OR if burner flame is accidentally extinguished, turn knob to OFF, wait 5 minutes, try again. If
the burner does not ignite with valve open OR if burner flame is accidentally extinguished after lighting, gas will
continue to flow out of the burner and could accidentally ignite with risk of injury.
Burner Flame Check
Light burner then rotate regulator knob from HIGH to LOW.
You should see a smaller flame in LOW position than on
HIGH. Always check flame prior to each use. The air
damper mounted on the back of your burner helps to
control the amount of primary air that mixes with the LP
gas. A blue flame with little or no yellow flame provides the
best heat. Adjust the air damper by turning it clockwise or
counter-clockwise until the desired flame is achieved.
Turning LP Cooker Off
Turn all knobs to OFF position. Turn LP tank OFF by turning OPD hand wheel clockwise to a full stop.
Hose Check
Before each use, check to see if there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks. If any problems are found, the
hose must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into operation. The replacement hose assembly shall be
that specified by the manufacturer.
Clean and inspect the pressure regulator and hose assembly prior to use.
Cleaning the Burner
Check and clean burner/venture tubes to eliminate insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to fire beneath the
appliances.
Spiders’ nests or wasps’ mud inside the burner may cause fire at the air damper. If a fire occurs, immediately turn off
gas supply at LP tank valve.
Note:
Spiders and small insects can spin webs and build nests inside the burner. This especially occurs in late summer and
fall before frost when spiders are most active. These nests can obstruct gas flow and cause a fire in and around the
burner and orifice. Such a fire can cause operator injury and serious damage to the appliance.
To help prevent a blockage and ensure full heat output, clean and inspect
burner tube often (once or twice a month). NOTE: Water or air pressure will
not normally clear a spider web.
Steps for Cleaning the Burner:
1. Remove orifice/hose from the burner.
2. Look inside the burner tube for nests, webs, or mud.
3. To remove the above obstructions, use an accessory flexible venture
brush or bend a small hook on one end of a long flexible wire such as
the one in small picture.
4. Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
5. Reattach orifice/hose to burner.
