GRILL ASSEMBLY  
Before You Begin  
Recommended Tools  
All Broilmaster grills require some assembly and installation.  
Follow all instructions unless noted to apply only to other  
specific models.  
These items are recommended for the assembly of your  
grill:  
• Phillips screwdriver  
If you purchased an accessory with your Broilmaster, follow  
the instructions provided with the accessory for assembly  
and installation. If an instruction refers to a step that is not  
required for your grill model, please continue to the next  
step.  
• Adjustable wrench set  
• Socket set  
• Soapy water solution (to test for leaks)  
• Liquid soap (for foam grip)  
In each step, parts are identified with “Key” numbers. Key  
numbers appear in parenthesis after a part name is mentioned  
for the first time in the instructions. You can reference each  
part by its key number on the Parts List if you need help in  
identifying a part.  
Grill Mountings  
Assemble your base option before assembling your Broil-  
master grill head.  
Compare the parts found in the shipping container to the  
parts list provided. If any parts are missing contact your  
Broilmaster dealer before beginning assembly.  
Refer to the Broilmaster Cart, Base, and Post instructions  
provided with each accessory for assembly, installation, and  
mounting procedures.  
CAUTION: FOR YOUR SAFETY  
Parts may have sharp edges. Wear leather work  
glovesandhandlepartscarefullyduringtheunpack-

GRILL ASSEMBLY  
9. Remove ignitor button and insert AA battery, positive  
side down, and replace ignitor button. See Figure 10.  
Installing Char-Master Briquets  
Individually place the ‘Char-Masterbriquets in a single layer  
evenly on your grill’s briquet rack; DO NOT dump them onto  
the briquet rack. A single layer of ‘Char-Master’ briquets is  
all that’s needed. DO NOT overlap or stack the briquets.  
See Figure 13.  
After properly placing the ‘Char-Master’ briquets on your  
grill’s briquet rack, there may be some briquets left over.  
Save them for future use.  
Before cooking, always preheat the grill as directed by the  
grill’s operating instructions. Hot briquets cause better,  
quicker cooking and better flavor.  
Figure 10  
10. Install foam grip (4) on lid handle (3). See Figure 11.  
Tip: For ease of installation, slightly lubricate the lid  
handle with liquid soap before pushing the foam grip  
into place.  
Cleaning  
Routine preheating and routine burn-off (also called post  
heating) of a grill will clean the ‘Char-Master’ briquets. Pe-  
riodically turn the briquets over while they are cool.  
Figure 11  
11. Fasten the lid handle to the grill body top (1) with two  
#10-24 x 1" screws. See Figure 12.

PROPANE GAS GRILLS  
Propane Cylinder Safety  
Connection Requirements  
Liquid Propane (LP) gas has a long history of safe use  
when the safety precautions provided in this manual are  
followed.  
Caution: Never use Liquid Propane (LP) gas in a grill  
designed for Natural gas, or Natural gas in a grill designed  
for Liquid Propane gas. Questions regarding different  
types of gases should be directed to your local gas sup-  
plier.  
Failure to follow these safety precautions could result  
in a fire or explosion causing property damage or  
personal injury.  
Installation must conform to local codes or in the absence of  
local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code,ANSI Z223.1/  
NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA  
B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.  
Propane gas cylinders should always be handled, stored,  
and transported with extreme caution in a secured upright  
position.  
Warning: Broilmaster Premium Gas Grills require Liq-  
uid Propane (LP) cylinders equipped with an Overfill  
Protection Device (OPD). An overfilled or improperly  
filled Propane cylinder can be dangerous.  
Never attempt to use or repair a propane gas cylinder that has  
been damaged. Never attempt to use or repair a cylinder with  
a faulty or damaged valve outlet. A cylinder that has been  
dropped, dented, or otherwise damaged must be replaced.  
Alwaysusethepressureregulatorandhoseassemblysupplied  
with your Propane gas grill.  
A propane gas cylinder should never be transported in the  
passenger area of a vehicle.  
Note: Not all valve and cylinder combinations are compat-  
ible. Check warning tag on valve and cylinder as well as  
external fitting threads.  
Keep cylinders out of direct sunlight and never apply any  
other source of direct heat to them.  
All Broilmaster pressure regulators and hose assemblies  
require Propane cylinders with a Type 1 connection device  
as illustrated. Figure 15.  
When refilling your cylinder, always insist on a reputable,  
qualified gas dealer. Your propane gas cylinder is filled by  
weight, and should never exceed eighty (80%) percent of its  
weight limit. If the cylinder is not completely empty, the gas  
dealer must make necessary adjustments to ensure it is not  
overfilled. Never use an overfilled Propane gas cylinder.  
Cylinder Storage  
Your grill must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area  
if the cylinder is attached to it.  
Disconnected cylinders must have a threaded valve plug  
tightly installed and must not be stored in any building, ga-  
rage, or other enclosed area.  
Figure 15  
Flammable materials (gasoline, grill covers, etc.) must not  
be stored in the cylinder enclosure.  
Always store Propane cylinders in a secured upright position,  
out of the reach of children.

PROPANE GAS GRILLS  
Pressure Regulator and Hose Assembly  
The pressure regulator has an outlet pressure of not more than eleven (11") inches water column. It must be connected to  
the Propane gas cylinder’s male valve outlet before the grill can be operated.  
Caution: Operation of a Propane gas grill without the pressure regulator and hose assembly will cause gas  
leaks which could lead to fire or explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.  
The pressure regulator’s fitting must remain clean and free of nicks and scratches. A dirty, nicked or scratched fitting can  
cause a gas leak, resulting in an explosion or fire. Use only genuine Broilmaster replacement parts unless otherwise speci-  
fied by the manufacturer.  
Connecting to Propane Gas  
Position the cylinder in the opening in the bottom of the cart and secure with the cylinder retaining bracket. Figure 16.  
Attach the pressure regulator to the Propane gas cylinder’s  
valve using the plastic handwheel. Tighten in a clockwise  
motion to achieve a gas tight seal. See Figure 17.  
Caution: Do not use a wrench or any other tool to  
tighten. Use of a wrench or other tool will damage the  
plastic handwheel.  
To disconnect the Propane gas cylinder, turn OFF the cylin-  
der’s valve and the grill’s control valve. Remove the regulator  
by turning the plastic handwheel counterclockwise.  
When not in use, the cylinder's valve must be closed.

Gas Type  
Grill Location  
The type gas required for your grill can be determined from  
the product identification label located on the grill’s control  
panel. Questions regarding different types of gases should  
be directed to your local gas supplier.  
When choosing the ideal location for your Broilmaster Pre-  
mium Gas Grill, remember this grill is designed for outdoor  
use ONLY.  
You should never install or operate your grill in any building,  
garage, or other enclosed area.  
Caution: Never use Liquid Propane (LP) gas in a  
grill designed for Natural gas, or Natural gas in a  
grill designed for Liquid Propane gas. Questions  
regarding different types of gases should be directed  
to your local gas company.  
For your safety, this grill should not be installed or operated  
under any combustible materials, such as carports, covered  
porches, awnings, or overhangs.  
Never install or operate your grill in or on any recreational  
vehicle or boat.  
Connection Requirements  
Broilmaster grills are not equipped with pressure regulators.  
Your gas grill operates at a manifold pressure of seven (7")  
inches water column.  
CAUTION: The installation and operation of this  
grill at clearances less than specified below may  
lead to the possibility of fire, property damage, or  
personal injury.  
Connect cart mounted Natural gas grills to a pre-installed  
gas supply line using the twelve (12’) foot flexible hose and  
quick disconnect kit which can be purchased from your lo-  
cal dealer.  
Aminimum clearance of sixteen (16") inches is required from  
the sides of the grill to any combustible material.

OPERATION - PROPANE & NATURAL GAS GRILLS  
Operating Instructions  
Checking for Gas Leaks  
Before each use, inspect all hoses. If it is evident there is  
excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be  
replaced prior to using your Broilmaster grill. Call your local  
Broilmaster dealer for a replacement.  
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster  
propane 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.  
Using the Ignitor  
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.  
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn  
the burner OFF for 5 minutes, to allow the gas to clear,  
then try again.  
Note: Each burner must be lit individually.  
To check for gas leaks:  
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF posi-  
tion.  
1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy  
solution.  
2. Turn ON gas at the source.  
3. With the grill lid open, push and turn the burner control  
knob COUNTERCLOCKWISE to Hi.  
4. Push and hold the ignitor button until the burner lights  
(approximately 5 seconds).  
5. If a burner does not light, turn OFF all gas and refer to  
the Troubleshooting section of this manual.  
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for other burner.  
2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.  
3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. Ahissing 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.  
Using Matches  
Air Shutter Adjustment  
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn  
the burner OFF for 5 minutes, to allow the gas to clear,  
then try again.  
The burner (venturi) tube air shutter is 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  
burner (venturi) tube air shutter as follows:  
Note: Each burner must be lit individually.  
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF posi-  
tion.  
2. Turn ON gas at the source.  
1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.  
2. Beneath the control panel you can access the air shutter(s)  
which are located on the end of the burner tubes.  
3. Loosen shutter set screw  
4. Close the air shutter to the minimum opening.  
5. Light the burner, wait five minutes and then carefully open  
the air shutter until the flame is blue and well defined.  
6. Retighten the set screw.  
3. Open the grill lid.  
4. Insert a burning long wooden match through the lighter  
hole on either side of the grill. See Figure 21.  
5. Turn the burner control knob COUNTERCLOCKWISE  
to HI.  
6. If a burner does not light, turn OFF all gas and refer to  
the Troubleshooting section of this manual.  
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 for other burner.

OPERATION  
Electrical Accessories  
Before Cooking  
If an electrical accessory (e.g. rotisserie) is used on your grill,  
the accessory must be electrically grounded in accordance  
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the  
National Electric Code,ANSI/NFPA70. In Canada, the elec-  
trical accessory must be electrically grounded in accordance  
with the applicable section of the current Canadian Electrical  
Code, CSA C22.1.  
Before cooking on a grill for the first time, it should be  
operated to burn off any oil residue from the manufacturing  
process.  
1. Raise the grill lid.  
2. Light grill burners.  
3. Burn on HI for ten minutes.  
4. Close the lid and burn on HI for an additional ten  
minutes.  
Any electrical accessory should be equipped with a three-  
prong (grounding) plug, and plugged into a properly grounded  
three-prong receptacle or wall outlet. Do not cut or remove  
the grounding prong from the plug.  
5. Turn OFF gas. The grill is now ready for use.  
Preheating  
Before cooking on a gas grill, allow the grill to preheat on  
HI for 5 minutes with the lid closed.  
If an extension cord is required, use only a three-prong cord  
and plug into a properly grounded receptacle as described  
above.  
This uses very little fuel and provides better flavor.  
Do not expose an electrical accessory to water. Avoid using  
any electrical accessory in wet weather as it may present a  
shock hazard.  
Cooking  
Broilmaster is happy to provide a cookbook with each of  
its grills. The cookbook contains helpful cooking tips and  
instructions as well as great tasting recipes for preparing  
many delicious foods on your grill.  
Keep any electrical cord and fuel supply hose away from all  
heated surfaces.

MAINTENANCE  
Cleaning the Grill  
Grease Tray  
Caution: To prevent injury, use care when cleaning a  
hot grill.  
Empty periodically. Replacement tray liners can be  
purchased at most supermarkets where disposable aluminum  
baking pans are displayed.  
Note: Do not use a commercial cleaner on the cooking  
grids. Do not brush grids while they are hot. Do not  
scrape grids. This can damage the porcelain coating and  
void the warranty on the cooking grids.  
Burner (Venturi) Tubes  
The burner (venturi) tubes allow air and gas to mix prior  
to burning, thus ensuring an efficient flame. Spiders or  
other small insects may build webs or nests inside the  
tubes obstructing air flow. Fire, or flashback, can occur,  
in and/or around obstructed burner (venturi) tubes and can  
cause damage to components beneath the grill or an unsafe  
condition. To reduce risk, inspections and cleaning should  
be performed at least twice monthly when spiders are active.  
If the grill has been unused for an extended period of time  
inspect the tubes before using the grill.  
For baked on residue use a BRASS (NOT STEEL) brush on  
the cooking grid and other components.  
Burn Off  
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens  
and is most efficient when completed after each use of the  
grill.  
Caution: Do not open the grill during the burn off  
process. Opening the grill during the burn off process  
may cause a sudden grease fire flare up that could burn  
your face and arms. Wait until the grill has cooled before  
opening.  
Clean burner (venturi) tubes as follows:  
1. Remove the cooking grids and briquette rack or flavor  
screen.  
2. Remove the burner from the grill.  
3. Use a small flexible brush to remove any debris from the  
burner (venturi) tube.  
4. Flush with water.  
5. Allow the burner (venturi) tube to dry before  
reinstalling.  
1. Turn gas knob to HI. Close lid and allow the grill to  
burn for ten minutes, or until no smoke is present. Do  
not allow the grill to burn for more than 30 minutes.  
2. Turn gas knob and supply to OFF and allow the grill to  
cool.  
3. Wipe COOL grill with a damp cloth to remove soot.  
6. Reinstall the burner, briquet rack and briquets or flavor  
screen, and cooking grids.  
Grill Bottom  
Periodically remove cooking grids and Char-Master Briquets  
or flavor screen to clean the interior of the grill. Scrape off  
baked on residue with a putty knife or brass brush and rinse  
with water. Clean the bottom air holes with a small knife.  
Exterior  
Clean regularly with a solution of mild detergent and hot  
water. Touch-up paint is available from your dealer. Broil-  
master protective covers are recommended. Stainless steel  
components can be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless  
steel cleaner found in most hardware stores.  
Burner Maintenance  
Visually inspect the burner flames with each use. Five minutes  
after lighting, the flames should be blue and have well defined  
cones. See Figure 22. See the troubleshooting section if the  
flames are yellow or lift off the burner.  
Char-Master Briquettes  
If the briquettes did not come clean during burn off, after  
cooling turn them over. The residue will burn off during  
warm-up for the next use.  
Stainless steel burners often turn reddish brown after use.  
This does not effect the performance of the grill. When  
cleaning the interior of the grill, remove the burners and clean  
with a brass brush. Wash with water and a mild detergent.
