OWNER’S MANUAL
TESTING BURNER FOR
LEAKS
1. Generously apply soapy solution to all
connections.
WARNING: Never check for
gas leaks with open flame.
2. Light the burner with the shutoff valve
no more than half open and holding a
match slightly in front of the pan (see
Lighting Instructions, page 12).
3. Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw
gas odor, or flame from any area other
than the burner (leaks). If leaks are de-
tected, shut off the gas valve immedi-
ately. Tighten, or reassemble the loose
connection(s) using pipe joint com-
pound until burner system is leak free.
4. When the burner is tested and leak free,
observe the individual tongues of flame
on the burner.
Note:
The burner design
includes more ports on the outside of the
bar. Make sure that all ports are clear
and producing flame evenly across the
burner. If any ports appear blocked, clear
them by removing the burner manifold
and reaming the ports with a modified
paper clip or other suitable tool.
5. When finished testing, turn the gas
shutoff valve OFF to extinguish all
flames.
ADDING PAN MATERIAL
1. Open the bags of ash bed material (ver-
miculite) and spread it evenly across the
burner pan to the top. You may over-
flow the front and sides of the pan to
cover the entire pan and connecting
hardware. Do not cover GA9000 or
GA9100 valve.
2. Open the glowing embers and evenly
cover the ash bed material (vermicu-
lite) in the burner pan.

Changing Pilot Orifice
The pilot is provided with a natural gas
orifice installed. For propane/LP gas you
must remove it and replace it with an pro-
pane/LP orifice. The hardware kit contains
an propane/LP orifice with a red stripe for
converting the pilot.
1. Gently loosen and remove the pilot
line connection from the bracket (see
Figure 16).
2. Replace the injector (see Figure 16)
with the propane/LP pilot injector with
the red stripe.
3. Replace and tighten the pilot line to the
bracket.
4. Continue with step 3 under Natural
Gas Installation, pages 9 and 10.

INSTALLING THE GRATE
AND LOGS
1. Place the grate over the burner pan. The
grate should “lock” into place over the
corners of the pan (see Figure 17).
2. Place one of the bottom logs on the
grate and slide forward against the front
grate bars. Repeat for other side (see
Figure 18).
5. Place the smaller top logs onto the bot-
tom logs (see Figure 19). Leave as
much open space between logs as pos-
sible to minimize flame impingement
and sooting.
Note:
Logs may chip if
they are handled roughly or if hit to-
gether while being placed.
3. For an 18" set, use a 10mm socket or
nut driver to remove the orifice from
the propane/LP burner inlet fitting.
Choose the correct orifice for your log
set size and install in place of the ori-
fice you just removed.
4. Using thread sealant (resistant to the
action of propane/LP gas) on larger end
of fitting, screw the burner inlet fitting
through hole and into burner manifold.
Tighten using a wrench.
5 . Follow steps 1 through 12 under Natu-
ral Gas Installation, pages 9 and 10.
