If burner does not light OR if burner flame is accidentally extinguished, turn knob to OFF, wait 5
minutes, try again. If the burner does not ignite with valve open OR if burner flame is accidentally
after lighting, gas will continue to flow out of the burner and could accidentally ignite with risk of
injury.
Burner Flame Check
Light burner, rotate knob from HIGH to LOW.
You should see a smaller flame in LOW
position than seen on HIGH. Always check
flame prior to each use. The air damper (D)
mounted on the back of your burner helps to
control the amount of primary air that mixes
with the LP gas. A blue flame with little or no
yellow flame provides the best heat. Adjust the air damper by turning it clockwise or
counterclockwise until the desired flame is achieved.
Turning LP Cooker Off
Turn all knobs to OFF position, Turn LP tank OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.
Hose assembly Check
Before each use, check to see if there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks, the hose
assembly must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into operation. The replacement hose
assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
Cleaning the Burner
Checking and cleaning burner / venture tubes for insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to fire
beneath the appliances.
Spiders' nests or wasps' mud inside the burner may cause fire at the air damper. If a fire occurs,
immediately turn off gas supply at LP tank valve. (See representative illustration in Fig.1)
Note:
Spiders and small insects can spin webs and build nests inside the burner. This especially occurs in
late summer and fall before frost when spiders are most active. These nests can obstruct gas flow and
cause a fire in and around the burner and orifice. Such a fire can cause operator injury and serious
damage to the appliance.
To help prevent a blockage and ensure full heat output, clean and inspect burner tube often (once or
twice a month). NOTE: Water or air pressure will not normally clear a spider web.
Steps for Cleaning the Burner:
1. Remove orifice/hose from the burner.
2. Look inside the burner tube for nests, webs, or mud.
3. To remove the above obstructions, use an accessory flexible venture
brush or bend a small hook on one end of a long flexible wire such as
the one shown in Fig.2.
4. Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
5. Reattach orifice/hose to burner.
