ASSEMBLY \\\\
To reduce the chance of "FLASHBACK" (see
CAUTION at left) clean the Burner Tubes and
Burners before fully assembling your grill.
Remove the Cotter Pin from the rear underside
of each Burner using a pair of long nose pliers.
Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the
Gas Valve Orifice, then refer to Figure 1 and
perform one of these three cleaning methods:
.
Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger
works well) into a small hook as shown
below. Run the hook through the Burner Tube
and inside the Burner several times to remove
any debris.
( .*
. Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.
Run the brush through the Burner Tube and
inside the Burner several times, removing any
debris.
.
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.

The location of the Burner Tube with re-
spect to the Orifice is vital for safe opera-
tion. Check to ensure the Orifice is inside
the Burner Tube before using your gas grill.
See Figure 2. If the Orifice is not inside
the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may
cause explosion and/or fire.
