Beef Eater 7000 Series, Assembly And Operating Instructions Manual, Page: 64 / 76

Australia only (applies to all gas types) : Where a mobile
appliance is to be connected to a fixed gas supply via a
flexible hose connection, a retaining tether of adequate
strength shall be fixed to the appliance and be suitable to be
fixed to the wall within 50mm of each connection point. The
length of the tether shall not exceed 80% of the length of the
hose assembly. In this way, if the barbecue is accidentally
moved, the chain stops the barbecue from stretching the
hose. The barbecue appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
The barbecue appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system.

1. Turn off the gas supply valve on the gas cylinder. Ensure
that all gas controls on the BBQ are in the OFF position.
2. Disconnect the hose and regulator from the gas cylinder
and disconnect the gas hose from the barbecue gas inlet
using a 19mm open-ended spanner/wrench.
3. Open hood and remove all cooking plates, grills and
vaporisers from the BBQ.
4. Remove the ‘R’ shaped locking clips that hold each
burner in place and remove all burners from barbecue.
This needs to be done at the on the front firewall of the
BBQ.
5. The gas injector (also known as jets or nozzles) for each
burner are located within deep pockets at the on the
front firewall of the BBQ.
6. Remove each gas injector from the end of each jet
holder using a 6mm socket spanner/wrench, turning
gently in a counter clockwise direction. Be careful not
to block the orifice at the end of valve where the gas
injector is fitted and do not remove any of the thread
sealing compound from the orifice where the injector is
located.
7. Check the identification mark stamped on Hex Head
of the injector to confirm that it is the correct size (NG:
2.10mm) Screw correct Jet back into place.
8. When fitting the NG gas injectors to the end of the jet
holder be sure to seat the injector correctly on the
thread before turning it in a clockwise direction until it is
seated firmly in place. Do not over-tighten.
IMPORTANT
Please note: for SL4000 side burners
One the side burner valve, from the inside bend the pilot

burner - on some models it may be necessary to open
the air-mixture screw (located at the burner venturi) a
couple of turns to get the correct flame.
11. Replace the LPG gas type label with the natural gas
label supplied.
12. Connect the natural gas hose and regulator (where
applicable) to the gas inlet on the barbecue. Tighten
