I got a couple of these from Home Depot, and I went to "assemble" them and I have a question.
The regulator hooks up to the propane tank, and the other end hooks up to the burner. When I originally set it up, I didn't put that little plate between the opening of the burner, and the flame would die out if I tried to turn it up at all.
So I reread the instructions, and realized that I was supposed to put that plate on it. I'm assuming that the plate just keeps the propane moving down the chamber to the tips? The plate can be twisted to allow more air in. Is that all there is to it?
For some reason it just doesn't seem safe that the propane travel down the burner (while on end is essentially open) before it hits the tip and is ignited.
