NATURAL HAZARD • SPIDERS
FACT:
Sometimes spiders and other small insects climb
into the burner tubes attached to the burners. The
spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs. The
webs or nests can be very small, but they
are very strong and can block the flow
of gas. Clean burners prior to use after
storing, at the beginning of grilling season
or after a period of one month not being used.
Spider guards are on the air intakes in an effort to
reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it! An
obstruction can result in a "flashback" (a fire in the
burner tubes). The grill may still light, but the obstruction
does not allow full gas flow to the burners.
IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING:
Smell gas.
1.
Burner(s) will not light.
2.
A small yellow flame from burner (should be blue).
3.
Fire coming from around or behind control knob.
4.
STOP!
Immediately turn off gas at LP cylinder!
SOLUTION:
Wait for grill to cool.
Follow the “ ” instructions.
Clean burners often. Use a 12” pipe cleaner to clean out
the burner tubes. You may also force a stream of water
from a hose nozzle through burner tubes to clean them.
