If burner flame is yellow, blows out frequently, does not light or flame is inside venturi then burner venturi needs to
be checked for obstructions. Dirt daubbers, spiders and other insects build nests inside burner venturi blocking air
and gas flow. KEEP AIR SHUTTER CLOSED AFTER EACH USE.
HHooww ttoo cclleeaann bbuurrnneerr aasssseemmbbllyy::
1. Remove hose from burner using adjustable wrench.
2. Insert small rod in opening of burner where hose was attached. This
should breakup any obstructions.
3. Hold burner up to light and look for other obstructions.
4. If burner has not been cleared then flush with water. Make sure burner is completely dry before using.
5. Once burner has been cleared reassemble burner.
