Be careful not to upset the air shutters’ original position
(unless readjusting). Lower the rear of the burner into
the cutouts on the support channel at the rear of the burner box. Make sure it is level and does not rock. Light all
of the burners and check for proper flame characteristics. If adjustments are necessary, refer to page 19. Do this
prior to cooking on the grill.
SIDE BURNERS (BGC48 BQR MODEL):
For proper lighting and performance keep the burn-
ers clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if they
do not light even though the electrode clicks, if there
has been a severe boil over, or when the flame does
not burn blue. Be certain all control knobs are in the
off position before attempting to clean the burners.
The burners have been designed for ease in cleaning.
When the grates and burners are cool, remove the
grate. The burner cap and the brass port ring can eas-
ily be lifted off. Wash these parts in hot soapy water,
rinse and dry thoroughly. The burner caps are porce-
lain enamel. A bristle brush can be used to clean out
the toothed burner ports, if necessary. After cleaning,
it is important to make sure the location pins on the
bottom side of the port ring are properly aligned with
the corresponding holes in the base. Incorrect align-
ment will produce a potentially dangerous flame and
poor burner performance (see Fig. 49).
SMOKER BURNER:
The smoker burner can be removed and cleaned by un-
plugging the electrode wire and lifting out the burner.
Cleaning is similar to the grill burner. Replace the
burner by sliding the air shutter over the brass orifice,
centering it in the hole.
