Trouble Shooting
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Checking and cleaning burner/ venturitubes for
insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a
fire beneath the grill.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or
make nests in the grill burner tubes during transit and
warehousing. These webs can lead to gas flow
obstruction which could result in a fire in and around
burner tubes. This type of fire is known as “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 assembling 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.
