CHECKING/CONVERTING THE BARBECUE ORIFICES
MAIN BURNER ORIFICE SIZE CHECKING/
CONVERSION
Before beginning, make sure you have the proper
tools for the task.
This task requires:
• a deep 3 /
8
" nut driver with a spacer (#6 nut)
1. Remove the grill and flavor grid from the
barbecue.
2. Release and remove the stainless steel clip,
which holds down the back end of the burner,
using a screwdriver. Retain the clip.
Note: Be sure not to lose the air shutter or air
shutter spring, which will become detached
when the burner is removed.
3. Remove the burner by lifting the back of the
burner up off of the inner liner shelf while pulling
the front of the burner away from the orifi ce. Set
the burner aside.
4. Remove the orifi ce using a 3 /
8
" hex nut driver
with a deep socket.
Note: The drill size is stamped on the face of
each orifi ce.
5. Replace the orifice with an orifice of the
proper drill size as listed in the Product Data
Table.
6. Replace the burner by fi rst sliding the open
end over the new orifi ce and then lowering the
back end into position. The orifi ce must project
deeply into the center of the burner tube.
Note: It is critical to the continued safe operation
of the burner that it be properly aligned
with the orifi ce, as indicated above.
7. Reinsert the stainless steel clip using fi ngers or
pliers while holding down the back end of the
burner.
8. Repeat steps 2-7 for the other main burner.
9. Replace the fl avor grid and then the grill so that
the cutout section of the grill is in front.
Note: The air shutter must be re-adjusted after
removing the burner to assure proper
combustion (see the MAIN BURNER AIR
SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT section).
