Air Shutter Adjustments:
We test and adjust every burner at the
factory for proper flame height prior to
shipping. However, variations in the local
gas supply, or a conversion from one gas
type to another may make it necessary to
adjust the burners. The flames of the
burners, except rotisserie and
infrared-zone burners, should be visually
checked and compared to Fig. 7.
Flames should be BLUE and stable, with
no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If
ANY of these conditions exist, check to
see if the air shutter is blocked, or burner
ports are clogged by dirt, debris, spider
webs, etc. Once the burner has been
properly cleaned, proceed with the air
shutter adjustment.
IMPORTANT:
The amount of air that enters a burner is
governed by a sheet metal cup at the inlet
of the burner called an Air Shutter. It is
locked in place by lock-screw which must
be loosened prior to making the air-shutter
burner adjustment.
To access the grill burner and to make the
proper air-shutter adjustment for proper air/gas
mixture do the following:
1. Remove the grill racks and radiant trays.
2. Lift the burner out as described in the section
BURNER CLEANING.
3. With a screw driver, loosen the lock-screw on
the face of the air shutter.
• For LP Units: set air shutter
approximately at 3/8 inches
• For NG units, set air shutter to
approximately 1/8 inches
Access for the side burner air shutters is
through the top after removing the top burner
grate and aeration pan assembly (Fig. 8)
