INSTALLATION OF THE BACKBURNER ELECTRODE

1. Remove the backburner cover and unplug the

backburner electrode wire (Figure 3).

2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the mounting

screw at the left end of the backburner. Be careful to

keep the spacer bushing that holds the burner away

from the mounting bracket if there is one (refer to

Owner’s Manual received with your barbecue for

more detailed instructions on backburner removal).

3. Carefully move the left end of the backburner

assembly forward while pulling it gently away from

the orifice holder which supports the right end of the

burner. Remove the burner assembly from the

barbecue oven.

Note: For Elite 50 backburners, both mounting

screws are located near the center of the oven. Each

burner pulls away from its own orifice holder on the

right and left sides of the oven.

4. Use a 1/4” socket screwdriver or a small wrench to

remove the electrode mounting screw and replace

the electrode (Figure 3). Inspect the electrode wire

insulation for damage. If the wire is damaged, it must

be replaced at this time.

5. To replace the electrode wire, remove the screw on

the side of the oven and replace the old wire with

the new one. Follow instructions in the barbecue

installation and operating manual to remove the face

or top panel.

Note: The wire match holder provided with the

barbecue may be helpful to pull the electrode wire

forward inside the barbecue frame. The uncoated

electrode wire (inside the oven) must be

positioned well away from any other metal parts.

6. If the spark generator (on the face or top panel of

the barbecue) has plugs for three wires, the ground

wire must be plugged into the center plug. The

barbecue and backburner electrode wires can be

plugged into either outside plug or into either plug

on generators with two plugs.

7. Before re-assembling the backburner and face,

check the electrode gap for barbecue and

backburner (Figure 1 and 2). The gap from the

electrode to the ground rod should be about 5/32”

on both electrode assemblies (between 1/8” and 3/

16”). Also, before fully re-assembling, plug in all wires

and check for spark at both electrodes. A small mirror

will be helpful for checking the barbecue electrode

spark.

8. Follow instructions in the barbecue manual for

adjusting the air shutters, then re-assemble.
