what is thin brass tube leading to the burner used for?

Customer (PF13L160): 

Thank you so much! I am very excited to use this, and have been wanting one for several years. They look well engineered for wok cooking.  Cheers.

I received the 13″ wok burner and everything looks great. It set up in a breeze and we are very excited to use it. I think you have designed a very good product. Thank you!

Outdoorstirfry:

thank you.  Let us know any feedback after using it for a while.

Customer:

Will do thank you! Oh, one question. One of the dials controls pressure from the thin brass tube leading to the burner. When and what is this used for? 

Outdoorstirfry:

The right valve is controlling gas to the thin copper tube as the pilot flame.  You can turn off the main burner between dishes if the pilot flame is lit.  We have a video (2nd one) on page https://outdoorstirfry.com/?page_id=768 on how to light the pilot flame.  Alternately you can choose not to use the pilot at all by turning the main burner really low between dishes.  

Customer: 

Ok that makes sense, thanks for clearing that up.  Cheers!

Wok burner is awesome!!! Very powerful, easy to use! Thanks again!

Outdoorstirfry:  

this is great!  We are glad that you are satisfied.
