How to Clean the Burners:
1) Open the hood and remove the Cooking Grid.
3) Lift the burner up and move it
toward the rear of the Grill.
Repeat for the other Burner.
4) Use a pipe cleaner to clear obstructions or insect nests
from the air inlet holes and Venturi end. Use a brass wire
brush to remove surface rust or corrosion. Open up
clogged burner holes with a small nail or wire. Do not
immerse the Burner in water. Remove any water that
gets in the Burner.

the back side of Bowl.
5) Re-install the Burners. Note: Make sure the Manifold
nozzles protrude inside the Burner Venturi tubes.
Re-tighten the rear Burner screws.
Note: Before Reassembly of Burners you may want to fully
clean the grill. See Cleaning the Grill previous page. If grill
is to be stored, coat Burners lightly with cooking oil and
wrap in a protective cover to keep insects out.
6) Check burner operation after re-assembly.
7) Re-install Cooking Grid and Grease Cup.
To reduce the risk of fire beneath the grill:
· Inspect and clean clogged burner/venturi tubes for
insects and insect nests.
· Make sure LP cylinders are disconnected from the grill
Burner, the control knob is turned off, and the grill is
completely cooled before cleaning the burners.
Provided that the Burner is operating correctly, in normal
usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep the
Burner clean. The Burner should be removed and cleaned
annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that
there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either the
burner ports, the primary air inlet, or the neck of the burner.

the neck of the burner.
CLEANING THE BURNERS
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:
· Always turn “OFF” the Regulator Knob and remove the
LP Cylinder when not in use. Damage or severe
impact may loosen the assembly and cause gas to
leak outside the burner area.
· Always allow grill to cool and Lock the Grill Hood with
the Hood/Bowl latch before transporting.
· Store your LP gas grill in a cool, dry place. You can
store your grill indoors only if the cylinders are
disconnected.
· Do not store an LP cylinder indoors (empty or filled).
Make sure there are no open flames nearby, then
disconnect the LP cylinders from the gas grill. Re-cap
LP Cylinder with the Safety Cap. Store LP cylinders
outdoors out of the reach of children.
· To avoid an explosion, do not leave an LP cylinder
inside a vehicle that can become overheated by the
sun. Do not store an LP cylinder in any space greater
than 125 degrees Fahrenheit.
· Even though an LP cylinder may appear to be empty,
gas may still be present and the cylinder should be
transported and stored safely.
· Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near the
LP gas grill.
· Check your LP gas grill for gas leaks, deterioration,
proper assembly, and burner obstructions before
using the grill after periods of storage and/or non-use
(i.e. over winter).
