7. SERVICING YOUR BARBEQUE
Apart from cleaning, your barbeque is a failry 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 there are any signs of wear or cracking in the barbeque hose, you will need to replace it
immediately. Ensure you replace it with a hose and regulator purchased from Barbeques Galore
to ensure proper gas connection compatibility. Connect the nut of the hose to the gas inlet on
the right side of the barbeque. 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.
• If your barbeque 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 barbeque checked by an authorised 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 replace every
ten years. The date of the last service should be stamped on the neck of the bottle.
• Occasionally ou will need to remove your burners for cleaning or adjustment. To replace the
burner, place the open end of the burner over the gas jet at the front of the barbeque. Then,
lower the lug on the other end of the barbeque into the locating hole.
As you can see, it’s easy to keep your barbeque in great shape so it can give you years of trouble free
enjoyment.
