CHANGING ORIFICES 1. Open your grill and remove the grates, radiant trays, and burners from the firebox area. Trellis and U-burners are removed by lifting up the rear of the burner, and carefully twisting to clear the igniter shroud. Infrared Sear Burners have a small metal cover over the igniter which must be removed first. There is also a screw at the rear firebox wall which must be removed. The sear burner can then be carefully removed using the same twisting action to avoid breaking the ceramic igniter.

CHANGING ORIFICES (continued) 3. When replacing the elbow and orifice assembly back into the burner bracket, it is important to maintain the original spacing shown below for proper burner performance. EN .25” (6.3 mm) 4. Remove the screws securing the control panel to the front of the grill. Carefully tilt down the control panel being careful not to damage the wires to the switches and LED light bar. Pull off the connectors to the 2 switches and the LED light bar at this time.

CHANGING ORIFICES (continued) 5. Before removing the main burner orifices, take a visual note as to how far the orifice is installed onto the valve body. The orifices are removed with a 1/2” deep socket wrench. Use even pressure to break loose the old orifice and remove from the valve.

CHANGING ORIFICES (continued) 6. If your grill is equipped with both open-flame (Trellis or U-burners) and Infrared Sear Burners, verify you have the correct orifice for each kind of burner. The orifice size is stamped on the body of the orifice. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for what size is used on each burner type for your altitude. This is also a good time to clean and inspect the burners for clogged ports, debris, spider webs, etc.

TESTING & ADJUSTMENT LEAK TESTING EN GENERAL A complete gas tightness check must be performed of all gas-carrying components due to possible movement during installation, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to parts of the unit. BEFORE TESTING • Do not smoke while leak testing. • Never leak test with an open flame. • Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing purposes. • Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle or a brush.
PAGE 7
TESTING & ADJUSTMENT (continued) BURNER / VALVE ADJUSTMENTS Consult the GAS CONNECTIONS section of your Hestan or Aspire outdoor appliance for full instructions on burner adjustments, flame appearance, air shutter adjustment, and valve adjustments. This step is very important to ensure successful burner performance after conversion to a new fuel type, or changing orifices for high altitude locations.
