OPTIONAL GA9050A ON/OFF
SAFETY VALVE/PILOT KIT
For additional convenience and safety, or for
propane/LP conversion, an optional ON/OFF
safety valve/pilot kit is available. See Accessories
,
page 18.
WARNING: You must use a
ON/OFF safety valve/pilot kit for
propane/LP conversion.
TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS
1. Generously apply noncorrosive leak detec-
tion fluid 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 10).
3. Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas
odor, or flame from any area other than the
burner (leaks). If leaks are detected, shut off
the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reas
-
semble the loose connection(s) using pipe joint
compound 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 bag of ash bed material (vermiculite)
and spread it evenly across the burner pan
to the top. You may overflow the front and
sides of the pan to cover the entire pan and
connecting hardware. Do not cover GA9050A
or GA9150A valve.
2. Open the glowing embers and evenly cover the
ash bed material (vermiculite) in the burner pan.
INSTALLING THE GRATE AND LOGS
1. Place the grate over the burner pan where the
two outer horizontal supports on the grate fit
into the two pan positioning notches in the
rear vertical edge of the pan.
2. Slide the two rear log grate steps over the
two outer horizontal supports on the grate as
shown in Figure 8.
3. Place the back log onto the grate steps (see
Figure 9).
4. Place the front log(s) on the grate and slide
forward against the front bars on the grate
(see Figure 9).
5. Place three middle logs on top of bottom logs
(see Figure 10, page 10).
6. Place the smaller top logs onto the bottom logs
(see Figure 11, page 10). Leave as much open
space between logs as possible to minimize
flame impingement and sooting.
Note: Logs
may chip if they are handled roughly or if hit
together while being placed.
