Checking for Gas Leaks

Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster

pro-

pane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected cylinder

has not been used recently, or when either a natural or propane grill

is being used for the first time.

Caution: Do not use an open flame when checking for leaks.

Checking for leaks with an open flame may lead to a fire or

explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.

To check for gas leaks:

1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy solu-

tion.

2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.

3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound

indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.

4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.

5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.

6. If there are bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.

7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures until

all leaks are repaired.

Air Shutter Adjustment

The venturi air shutter(s) are preset at the factory so that after five

minutes the burner flames are blue with well defined cones. If,

after five minutes the flame is yellow, or there is a gap between

the burner and the flame, adjust the venturi air shutter as follows:

1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.

2. Loosen shutter set screw

3. Close the air shutter to the minimum opening.

4. Light the burner, wait five minutes and then carefully open the

air shutter until the flame is blue and well defined.

5. Retighten the set screw.
