• Burner: 16 5/16 inches (length) x 1 inch (diameter)

Installation (Setup)

Before beginning installation, ensure your grill is completely cool and disconnected from its gas supply. It is recommended to wear protective gloves.

1. Remove Old Components: Carefully remove the old heat plates and burners from your grill. Note their orientation for easier installation of the new parts.
2. Clean Grill Interior: This is an opportune time to clean the interior of your grill, including the firebox and grease management system, to remove any accumulated debris or grease.
3. Install New Burners: Place the new stainless steel burners into their respective positions. Ensure they are properly seated over the gas orifices and secured with any existing fasteners. Note: Some older screws may be difficult to remove. If the screw heads round, use a 5/16 socket on the nuts located on the underside of the burner to loosen them. Consider replacing old fasteners with stainless steel screw/washer/nut combinations for future ease.
4. Install New Heat Plates: Position the new heat plates above the burners. Ensure they are correctly aligned and rest securely on their supports.
5. Reconnect Gas Supply: Once all components are installed, reconnect the gas supply and check for any leaks according to your grill's manufacturer instructions.
6. Test Operation: Light the grill to ensure all burners ignite properly and produce an even flame.

Operation

Once installed, these replacement parts function identically to the original components. The burners distribute gas for even heating, and the heat plates vaporize drippings, enhancing flavor and reducing flare-ups. Always follow your grill's manufacturer guidelines for safe operation.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance extends the life of your grill parts and ensures safe operation.

• Cleaning Heat Plates: After each use, allow the grill to cool. Scrape off any food residue from the heat plates using a grill brush. For deeper cleaning, remove the plates and wash with warm, soapy water.
• Cleaning Burners: Periodically inspect burner ports for blockages. Use a wire brush or a stiff wire to clear any debris from the burner holes. Ensure the air shutters are clear.
• Grease Management: Regularly clean the grease tray and drip pan to prevent grease fires and maintain hygiene.
• Inspection: Before each use, visually inspect the burners and heat plates for any signs of damage or excessive wear.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after installing your new parts, consider the following:

• Uneven Heating: Check that burners are properly seated over the gas orifices and that all burner ports are clear of debris. Ensure heat plates are correctly positioned.
• Burner Not Lighting: Verify that the gas supply is connected and open. Check the igniter electrode for proper alignment and ensure it is clean. Inspect the burner for any blockages.
• Excessive Flare-ups: This can indicate a buildup of grease. Ensure heat plates and the grease management system are clean. Reduce cooking temperature if necessary.

For persistent issues, consult your grill's original instruction manual or contact support.
