5. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.
A. Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
several times.
B. Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
C. Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into the
burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port to
make sure air comes out each hole.
7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
8. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper
clip.
9. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes
are found replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage valve
openings. See illustration below.
