REGULATOR, BURNER AND GAS VALVE CONNECTION & OPERATION
• Inspect hose before each use. If there are signs of abrasion, wear, cuts, or leaks, the hose must
be replaced. DO NOT USE.
• Inspect burner before each use. Check burner and burner venturi tube for insects and insect
nests. A clogged tube can lead to a re beneath unit.
• Check to ensure the orice is centered inside the venturi tube. Failure to properly assemble
the valve orice to the venture tube can result in gas leak or potential re at connection. See
assembly steps for proper assembly method.
• Check to ensure the igniter pin is properly spaced and aligned to the burner. Igniter pin should
be approximately 1/4” from the burner and aligned to the top of a burner port (Fig. 2). Conrm
spacing is correct by pressing the igniter button and ensuring spark occurs between igniter pin
and burner.
