Burner and Orifice

■ Proper location of the burner with respect to the orifice is
important. To verify the proper installation of the burner
tube, use a screwdriver to remove the control panel. The
burner tube must be located over the orifice fitting. See
Fig. 28 (control panel not shown).
Orifice Fitting
■ Check and clean the burner/venturi tubes for insects and
insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath
the appliance.

Fixing A Fuel Leak

If you detect a leak:
1. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint, or by replacing
the faulty part with a replacement part recommended
by Coleman. DO NOT attempt to repair the cylinder
if it should become damaged; the cylinder MUST be replaced.
2. If you are unable to stop a leak, remove the cylinder from
the grill. DO NOT use the grill until the leak is corrected.
When to test for leaks:
1. Perform a leak test each time the gas supply cylinder is
connected to the regulator. Leak test anytime a part of
the gas system is replaced.

Start-Up Check List

Failure to follow these safety steps before using the grill
each time could result in a fire that could be hazardous to
you, your appliance or property. It is especially important
to observe these steps after the grill has been stored,
moved or cleaned.
1. Regularly check the burner venturi tube for blockage
from an insect nest. Read "Cleaning the Venturi" in the
section titled "Care, Maintenance, and Cleaning", and
also the section titled "Troubleshooting".
2. Check that the burner tube [A] is set over the regulator
outlet [B] correctly. The orifice [C] must be inside the
venturi. (Fig. 30)
3. Use only the gas specified.
4. Keep the grill on a level surface.
