3. Check that burner operates at the new high flame setting. It
may be necessary to adjust the screw setting slightly more to get
the ideal burner flame height.
Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting
necessary. It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing
the grates and flame tamers.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models)
should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP
gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates
not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there
is too much air. Some yellow tips on flames when the burner is set
to HIGH setting are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot
deposits appear. The flames should be approximately 1" (2.5 cm)
high.
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,
etc., and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters
as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cold
completely. To Adjust:
1. Light grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment
and how the flame is acting.
3. Turn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cold
completely.
4. Remove grill grates and flame tamers.
5. Remove the 1 screw and cotter pin that hold the burner in
place. Remove gas burner from the grill.
