Key numbers appear in parenthesis after a part name is
mentioned for the first time in the instructions and are
labeled on the illustrations. You can reference each part
by its key number on the Parts List if you need help in
identifying a part.
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.
CAUTION: FOR YOUR SAFETY
Parts may have sharp edges. Wear leather work
gloves and handle parts carefully during the un-
packing, assembly and installation.
