Leak Testing
Before proceeding, it is important that you leak test the barbeque. Make sure all the barbeque control knobs
are OFF.
If you have a portable gas cylinder, turn the cylinder
ON
by rotating the knob anti-clockwise. If you have a wall
connection, ensure the bayonet fitting is connected.
Spray or pour soapy water (about the same concentration as washing up water) along the gas line including:
The gas connection at the inlet of the barbeque.
The gas hose or copper piping, including any joints or bends in the piping.
The gas connection at the gas cylinder or the wall connection. If bubbles appear, there is a gas leak, turn the gas
supply
OFF
. If the leak is at a connection, tighten and retest. If the leak is anywhere else, or if you cannot resolve
the leak, do not proceed, turn the gas supply
OFF
and disconnect and consult your retailer.
You can also check for leaks using a Gas Safety Gauge, available at your Barbeques Galore store. This provides an
easier, quick way to check for leaks anytime.
