(ILLUSTRATIONS PAGE 22)
*Some models have two hoses with manual valves that work independently. Follow below instructions
for each manual valve.
1. Check the casting to make sure that it is set up as per the diagram (Figure 1).
2. Make certain the manual valve(s) is turned to the “OFF” position by turning it clockwise until it
reaches the stop position.
3. Open the cylinder control valve by turning it counterclockwise as per the diagram (Figure 3).
4. Insert a multipurpose lighter through the hole in the shroud as per Figure 4, or use a paper book
match placed above casting as per Figure 5. Turn the manual valve control toward the “ON”
position until ignition occurs. Turning the manual valve counterclockwise increases the gas flow
to the burner and hence the flame size (Figure 3).
When lighting the burner, if ignition does not occur in 3 to 5 seconds, turn the manual valve(s)
and cylinder control off. Wait 5 minutes for gas to disperse. Repeat procedure.
5. Check that the flame is blue and that the flames are emitted from every port in the casting. If not,
rotate the air shutter position until there is a blue flame. Opening the shutter too much will cause
the flame to “Lift” off the burner (Figure 6).
If there is a yellow flame, or if some ports have no flame, this indicates there may be an
obstruction in the venturi tube or ports. Check the maintenance instructions on page 24 for more
information regarding a yellow flame.
6. Always monitor the flame throughout the cooking process. If at any point in the cooking process
the flame is accidentally extinguished, immediately turn the manual valve(s) and cylinder
valve OFF. Wait 5 minutes for gas to disperse and relight the cooker according to the lighting
instructions (#1 - #5) in this section.
