Regulator Removal

The regulator pressure may be set too low and you may have to reset it. Remove the silver label in
the center of the regulator (where it says "Push to Turn"). By turning the Phillips head or 3/32 hex
screw found below this label, you can increase or decrease the gas flow. Clockwise increases the
gas flow, and counterclockwise decreases the gas flow.
CAUTION: You can increase the gas flow too much and the gas will not shut off. Check this
carefully after each adjustment.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning
Stainless Steel exposed to high heat will change color over time. Discoloration of components
does not affect the operation or performance of the barbecue.
The exterior of the barbecue can be cleaned with soapy water. We recommend covering the
barbecue between uses. West Marine recommends the following covers designed for this product:
Blue # 6816631 or Black # 6816649.
Clean the grease from the Grease Tray on a regular basis.
Clean the Flavor Plate on a regular basis. Build up of grease and food particles can cause flare ups
or poor heat disbursement.
Clean the grill after every use using a wire brush.
Maintenance
The following procedure will allow for the removal of the Burner Tube and Regulator for cleaning
or replacement.
Burner Removal
The burner can be removed from the barbecue by removing the machine screw connecting the
burner to the left side of the barbecue and sliding it out.
Regulator Removal
1. Remove the barbecue's burner, described above.
2. The orifice is located at the entrance to the burner. It is a brass fitting with a fine hole that
controls the maximum amount of gas to enter the burner.
3. Remove the orifice from the barbecue using an 11/16'' wrench.
4. Do not lose the spring washer that goes between the orifice and the regulator housing.
Observe the orientation of this washer for proper reinstallation.
