Figure 2 1. CHECKING FUEL AND PROPER ORIFICES: Your Fire Magic Sideburner is equipped with orifices for natural gas unless otherwise indicated.

Check the orifice size by removing the burner cap (Item#9F) and the venturi tube (Item #9C) and looking down through the hole in the center (see Figure 2 for th

Leave about one-half inch of space between each piece of charcoal. This will help you avoid flare-up from the meat drippings and provide more even heat for grilling.
