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 

any cracks that are connected to the probes 

and 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.
