Servicing Your Barbecue
Apart from cleaning, your barbecue is a fairly low maintenance item. A couple of things are worth looking at though.
Remember to turn off and disconnect the gas before any maintenance is carried out.
If your barbecue uses a flexible hose to connect to the gas, check the rubber O-ring on the regulator end of the
hose assembly at least once a year. If it appears worn or cracked, have it replaced.
We recommend having your barbecue checked by an authorized service agent every 5 years. This is to ensure
there are no leaks and that all components are still functioning correctly.
If you use a portable LPG gas cylinder, you will need to have the cylinder serviced or replaced every ten years.
The date of the last service should be stamped on the neck of the bottle.
As you can see, it's easy to keep your barbecue in great shape so it can give you years of trouble free enjoyment.
Replacing The Hose
If there are any signs of wear or cracking in the barbecue, you will need to replace it immediately. Ensure you replace it
with a hose and regulator purchased from a barbecure retailer to ensure proper gas connection compatibility. Connect
the nut of the hose to the gas inlet on the right side of the barbecue. You MUST use a spanner to tighten it properly. Do
not use sealing tape. The connection is designed to seal properly without it. Perform a leak test as explained in the
installation section before using.
Replacing The Burners
Occasionally you will need to remove your burners for cleaning or adjustment.
To remove the burner, remove the split pin on front end of burner, carefully lift burner up and away from valve opening
at the front of the barbecue. Reverse this procedure to replace the burner, taking care that the open end of the burner
engages properly to the valve.
