CAUTION
FACT: Sometimes spiders and other small insects climb into
the burner tubes attached to the burners. The spiders spin
webs, build nests and lay eggs. The webs or nests
can be very small, but they are very strong
and can block the flow of gas. Clean
burners prior to use after storing, at the
beginning of grilling season or after a period
of one month not being used.
NATURAL HAZARD • SPIDERS
Spider guards are on the air intakes in an effort to reduce this
problem, but it will not eliminate it! An obstruction can result
in a "flashback" (a fire in the burner tubes). The grill may still
light, but the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the
burners.
Smell gas.
Burner(s) will not light.
A small yellow flame from burner (should be blue).
Fire coming from around or behind control knob.
Follow the “ ” instructions.
Clean burners often. Use a 12” pipe cleaner to clean out the
burner tubes. You may also force a stream of water from a
hose nozzle through burner tubes to clean them.

Cleaning The Burner Assembly
Cleaning The Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.
1.
2. Remove cooking grates, flametamers, grease tray and
grease receptacle.
3. Remove cotter pins from beneath each burner "foot" using a
screwdriver or needle nose pliers.
4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.
Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
tube and burner several times.
Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube and burner several times.
Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.
5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper clip.
7. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or
holes are found replace burner.
8. Carefully replace burners.
9. Replace cotter pin beneath each burner.
10. Replace grease tray, grease receptacle, flametamers, and
cooking grates.
Turn gas off at control knobs and LP tank.
