2. Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.
Run the brush through the Burner Tube and
inside the Burner several times, removing any
debris.
3. Use an air hose to force air through each
Burner Tube. The forced air should pass
debris or obstructions through the Burner and
out the Ports.
CAUTION: Spiders and small insects occa-
sionally spin webs or make nests in the grill
Burner Tubes during transit and warehousing.
These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruc-
tion which could result in a fire in and around
the Burner Tubes. This type of fire is known
as a "FLASH-BACK" and can cause serious
damage to your grill and create an unsafe
operating condition for the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the
only cause of "FLASH-BACK', it is the most
common cause.
To reduce the chance of "FLASH-BACK", you
must clean the burner tubes before assem-
bling your grill, and at least once a month in
late summer or early fall when spiders are
most active. Also perform this Burner Tube
cleaning procedure if your grill has not been
used for an extended period of time.
z WARNING
The location of the Burner Tube with re-
spect to the Orifice is vital for safe
operation. Check to ensure the Orifice is
inside of the Burner Tube before using your
gas grill. See Fig. 2. If the Burner Tube
does not fit over the Valve Orifice, lighting
the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire.
