TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS
1. Generously apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to all
connections.
WARNING: Never check for gas leaks with
open flame.
2. Light the burner with the shutoff valve no more than half open
and holding a match slightly in front of the pan (see Lighting
Instructions, page 10).
3. Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas odor, or flame
from any area other than the burner (leaks). If leaks are de-
tected, shut off the gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reas-
semble the loose connection(s) using pipe joint compound until
burner system is leak free.
4. When the burner is tested and leak free, observe the individual
tongues of flame on the burner.
Note:
The burner design in-
cludes more ports on the outside of the bar. Make sure that all
ports are clear and producing flame evenly across the burner. If
any ports appear blocked, clear them by removing the burner
manifold and reaming the ports with a modified paper clip or
other suitable tool.
5. When finished testing, turn the gas shutoff valve OFF to extin-
guish all flames.
ADDING PAN MATERIAL
1. Open the bag of ash bed material (vermiculite) and spread it
evenly across the burner pan to the top. You may overflow the
front and sides of the pan to cover the entire pan and connect-
ing hardware. Do not cover GA9050A or GA9150A valve.
2. Open the glowing embers and evenly cover the ash bed mate-
rial (vermiculite) in the burner pan.
INSTALLING THE GRATE AND LOGS
1. Place the grate over the burner pan where the two outer hori-
zontal supports on the grate fit into the two pan positioning
notches in the rear vertical edge of the pan.
2. Slide the two rear log grate steps over the two outer horizontal
supports on the grate as shown in Figure 16.

3. Place the back log on the grate onto the grate steps (see
Figure 17).
4. Place the front log(s) on the grate and slide forward against
the front bars on the grate (see Figure 17).
5. Place the smaller top logs onto the bottom logs (see Figure 18).
Leave as much open space between logs as possible to mini-
mize flame impingement and sooting.
Note:
Logs may chip if
they are handled roughly or if hit together while being placed.
