4) The gas ignites behind the control panel.
To clean a burner, remove it from the barbecue
by removing the 2 securing screws underneath
the body of the barbecue. The outside of the
burner can be cleaned with a wire brush.
Clean the portholes with a pipe cleaner or piece
of wire. Take care not to enlarge the portholes.
Clean the insect screen on the end of the venturi
tube with a bristle brush (i.e. an old toothbrush).
Clean the venturi tube with a pipe cleaner or
piece of wire. You may need a torch to see into
the venturi tube to make sure it is clear. "Turn
the burner up on end and lightly tap against a
piece of wood to dislodge any debris from
inside."
J3. Lava Rock
It is not necessary to remove and wash the lava
rock in order to keep it clean. Burning off the
residue after each cooking should be sufficient.
Heavily impregnated lava rock should be turned
over so that the dirty side faces the burners in
order to burn off any residue. Replacement lava
rock is available from your local Outback®
stockist.
J4. Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the
barbecue body with a soft plastic or wooden
scraper. It is not necessary to remove all the
grease from the body. If you need to clean fully,
use hot soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-
bristled brush only. Remove cooking surfaces
and burners before full cleaning. Do not
immerse the gas controls or manifold in water.
Check burner operation after carefully refitting
into body. Check the grease cup and clean out
any grease that has drained into it.
J5. Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked
and tightened on a regular basis.
J6. LPG Hose
The LPG hose does not have a time-limited in-
service life but it is essential that the hose and
end connections are regularly inspected and
replaced if showing signs of:
•
Physical damage such as – cuts or abrasion,
cracking, stretching, flattening or kinking;
•
Environmental
stiffening, cracking, de-lamination of outer
covering, chemical degradation i.e. softening
of outer coating by contact with oil;
•
Hose service failure such as – blistering, soft
spots, rupture or corrosion or loosening of
the swaged fittings or worm drive clips
attaching the hose.
J7. Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked
and tightened on a regular basis.
J8. Storage
Store your barbecue in a cool dry place. It must
be inspected on a regular basis as damp or
condensation can form which may result in
damage to the barbecue. It may be necessary to
dry the barbecue and the inside of the cover if
used. Mould can grow under these conditions
and should be cleaned and treated if required.
Any rust that is found that does not come into
Venturi tube
contact with the food should be treated with a
rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or
a heat resistant paint. Chrome plated warming
racks and grills should be coated with cooking
oil. Wrap the burners in aluminium foil to help
prevent insects or other debris from obstructing
the burners.
The gas bottle must be always be disconnected
from the barbecue and stored in a well
ventilated area at least 1 metre away from any
fixed ignition source. Do not store inside
residential
cylinders below ground level (e.g. cellars). Do
not let children tamper with bottles.
