Cooking Tips - West Marine 200SS Owner's Manual

PLEASE CHECK THESE IMPORTANT CRITICAL POINTS PRIOR TO LIGHTING YOUR GRILL.
• Mount is secure and grill does not move.
• Grease tray and fire pan are clean from excess drippings to reduce flare up and ensure even
air flow.
• Lid is correctly positioned to operate freely and is in best position for blocking the wind.
• Venturi tube, burner, threaded burner pipe and valve orifice are free of obstructions, such as
spider webs.
• Electrode is clean and has a good strong spark.
• Radiant plate & dome are positioned correctly.
• Grill grate is in locked position under holding clips.
• Venturi tube holding nut is tight and doesn't turn when rotating valve position.
• Valve is installed and locked into venturi tube properly.
• Sufficient fuel is available.
• The most common mistake when grilling is using too high of a heat setting. Grills become
hotter as you cook, so use moderate heat settings when cooking with lid closed.
• Always keep a water spray bottle handy for flare ups and quick cooling if grill overheats.
• Coat the grill grate with vegetable or olive oil to prevent food from sticking.
• Always disconnect the fuel canister from the valve prior to stowing.
• Stow the valve and venturi tube in a clean, dry area to protect from corrosion to valve and
spider web obstructions in venturi tube.
• Always stow by unthreading the entire grill from the L-Bracket. Do not remove the L-Bracket &
Clamp unless repositioning is necessary.
• Always store propane in a sealed propane storage locker that allows leakage to vent overboard or
use Magma A10-210 Propane Storage
