CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
(continued)
BURNER CLEANING
Cleaning of the burner assembly itself should only be necessary in the event of a large spillover
which may have clogged the burner ports, etc. When the center burner is completely cooled
down, remove the burner cap and clean up whatever debris, food, grease etc. you find using
a warm, soapy water solution. A toothbrush can be used to scrub difficult areas. Wipe with
a clean cloth and reassemble. The octagonal burner is made out of a high-grade, 300-series
stainless steel which can be cleaned with a brass-bristle brush and warm, soapy water.
The octagonal burner requires a little more effort to clean. If removal is required, first remove
the burner cap from the center burner, and then the small cover at the rear of the burner. Also
remove the 2 screws securing the burner to the rear wall of the unit. Tilt the burner up and out
of the unit. Take care not to damage the spark igniter next to the burner.
Do not clean the burner ports with a toothpick or other item which may break off inside the
port. Use a paperclip or needle to do this. Stubborn scale can be removed with a metal scraper.
If removed, be sure to rinse everything well and shake out any water and debris trapped inside
the burner tube. Do not disturb the air-shutter.
Great care should be used when re-installing the burner. It must be correctly centered and
secured on the orifice before any attempt is made to relight the burner. Once re-installed on the
orifice and the rear bracket is secured again with the 2 screws, the burner should rest flat and
have no side-to-side movement. Take care not to damage the spark igniter next to the burner.
