Checking for Gas Leaks
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster
propane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected
cylinder has not been used recently, or when either a natural
or propane grill is being used for the first time.
Caution: Do not use an open flame when checking for
leaks. Checking for leaks with an open flame may lead
to a fire or explosion, resulting in property damage or
personal injury.
To check for gas leaks:
1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy
solution.
2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.
3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound
indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.
5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.
6. If there are bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the
leak.
7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures
until all leaks are repaired.
Air Shutter Adjustment
The burner (venturi) tube air shutter is preset at the factory
so that after five minutes the burner flames are blue with well
defined cones. If, after five minutes the flame is yellow, or
there is a gap between the burner and the flame, adjust the
burner (venturi) tube air shutter as follows:
1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.
2. Beneath the control panel you can access the air shutter(s)
which are located on the end of the burner tubes.
3. Loosen shutter set screw
4. Close the air shutter to the minimum opening.
5. Light the burner, wait five minutes and then carefully open
the air shutter until the flame is blue and well defined.
6. Retighten the set screw.
Operating Instructions
Before each use, inspect all hoses. If it is evident there is
excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to using your Broilmaster grill. Call your local
Broilmaster dealer for a replacement.
