SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
1. Before each use remove any accumulated
grease and other cooking residue. Fat/
grease fires are not covered by warranty.
2. Your barbecue should be cleaned regularly
with hot soapy water and dried afterwards.
Do not
use steel wool as it will leave steel
deposits on the surface of which can cause
rust. Scotch Bright pads can be used but will
generally leave scratch marks where you
have rubbed. Only use these on stubborn
un-washable deposits.
3. To remove rust marks, we recommend Eagle
One NEVER DULL wadding polish. To prevent
rust marks, polish the barbecue with stainless
steel polish regularly. Hint, rub the BBQ over
with a cloth after each use when the BBQ
is still hot and the grease on the BBQ will
wipe off easy and make it easy to look after
as it leaves a slight cover of grease on the
stainless steel which impedes the salt air
from settling in the pours of the stainless steel
surface.
4. Grease or oil the shafts of the gas control
valves where they enter the alloy housing
every 3 months to avoid them ceasing up. If
they become hard to turn or if you smell gas,
get the BBQ serviced.
5. Periodically check the leads on the ignitions
for cracks or the connections to the probes
or buttons.
6. Do not attempt to dismantle control valves
or the regulator.
7. Periodically remove the burners and
scrub them with soapy water and a wire
brush. Make sure the ports are clear from
obstructions, unscrew the air mixture cap
and gauze from the throat of the burner
periodically and brush away any dust, spider
webs or insect nests that may have built up,
replace them and screw them back on.
When replaced turn each burner on and
check that the flame pattern is good, you
can adjust the air mixture by turning the
cap on the end of the burner throat open or
closed. You want a blue flame with a yellow
tip.
8. Check hose and regulator regularly and
replace if damaged.
9. It is recommended that the hose and
regulator be replaced every 5 years.
10. If you cannot operate the barbecue
correctly turn it off. Do not continue to use
it. Take it back to the place of purchase or
local dealer and get them to test and repair
it.
11. Stainless Steel barbecues can be affected
by high temperatures of which can cause
discoloration on the BBQ frame.
12. Check and tighten nuts and bolts on the
barbecue regularly.
13. A canvas cover will help keep your
barbecue protected from weather. Make
sure the barbecue is dry before putting the
cover on or corrosion may occur. Coastal
climates are particularly vulnerable to this.
14. Check all connections for gas soundness.
