TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS
Sometimes the burner does not light or has a only a meager match flame. Other times, the flame blows
out, burns yellow, or there is a flame inside the burner tube. These symptoms are common and easy to
remedy. The following Trouble Shooting Tips cover most questions and problems associated with outdoor
gas cooker appliances. Save this manual for future reference.
1. SYMPTOM:
Burner lights but the flame remains very small and will not increase for heat-up and cooking.
CAUSE:
Both LP cylinder and regulator couplings contain an EXCESS FLOW safety device that shuts off 90 percent
of gas flow should the hose be cut ot severed. Sometimes this safety device can be activated when lighting
the burner. Opening the cylinder valve too quickly can create the rapid flow of gas that activates the
excess flow safety device.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
Repeat Lighting Instructions steps 1 through 7 on
on page 15. Follow lighting instructions and be certain
to S-L-O-W-L-Y open cylinder valve one full turn,
then S-L-O-W-L-Y open regulator valve when lighting.
2. SYMPTOM:
Cooker will not light .
CAUSE:
Orifice hole at bottom of jet tube may not be facing straight up, or has a blockage.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
Turn orifice hole to point straight up in jet tube
or clean orifice hole of debris.
1. Using a wrench, turn brass cap at bottom
of jet tube until orifice hole is facing straight up.
2. Using a thin wire; insert into the orifice hole
to remove blockage debris.
