PREVENTING
RUST
Rust is a chemical process in which iron oxidizes and begins to flake
away the metal. This is caused by water that soaks into the metal or
comes in contact with the metal frequently over time. As an outdoor
appliance made of steel, some appearance
expected from time to time. Keeping your barbecue under cover, clean
and dry, goes a long way to preventing rust occurring, Some tips are:
Ensure cooking surfaces (including flame tamers) are kept clean and
•
dry after cooking, particularly
surfaces
should
be rubbed
Do not leave your barbecue out in the rain.
•
Do not store your barbecue when wet. Dry thoroughly first.
•
During both Summer and Winter, periodically
•
enable the barbecue to air out, and get rid of any built up condensation.
• Light surface rust may be easily removed with a rag (or aluminium foil),
soaked in white vinegar, or by using a commercial rust remover. Dry
the affected area and apply a coating of rust preventing fluid, available
at most
auto
stores.
• Chipped enamel can be treated with touch up paint to cover the bare
metal
surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
IF BBQ
FAILS TO OPERATE
- Stop, turn off gas at its source and turn all burner controls to 'OFF.
- Do not smoke.
- Check gas supply connections.
- Repeat lighting procedure after waiting for five minutes for
accumulated gases to disperse.
If bbq still fails to operate properly TURN OFF GAS AT SOURCE,
TURN BURNER CONTROLS TO OFF, wait for bbq to cool and check
the following:
a) Misalignment
of bumer tubes over orifices
CORRECTION:
Reposition burner tube to properly sit over orifice.
b) Obstruction
in gas line
CORRECTION: Remove hose from bbq. Open gas supply for one
second to clear any obstruction from hose. Close off gas supply at
source and re-connect hose to bbq.
c) Blocked orifice
CORRECTION: Remove bumers as described above. Inspect gas
valve orifice, clear any obstruction with a fine wire. Re-install
burners over orifices and test again.
IF THERE
IS A LEAK
- Tum the gas cylinder off.
- Ventilate the area to disperse any accumulated gas.
- Check
all connections.
- If the leak persists, keep cylinder upright and take to an open area.
- Keep skin away from any gas or liquid escaping from the cylinder.
- Keep the cylinder at least 20 meters away from any sparks or ignition
sources including electrical equipment, camera flash, engines or
motors.
- Disperse gas by providing maximum ventilation and spraying with a
fine water spray.
IF THERE
IS A FIRE
If there is a fire at the appliance
- If there is a fire at the appliance, turn the gas off at the cylinder.
- Smother
the flames
with a wet cloth.
If there is a fire at the cylinder
turn
it off
- call the fire brigade.
- direct a garden hose to the middle of the cylinder to keep it cool,
however do not extingish the flame. If the gas is burning it it wont
build up and explode.
- Evacuate
the area.
A note on fire prevention:
Most fires in outdoor bbqs are caused by a build up of greases and fat,
or gas connections
which have not been secured properly. Remember
to follow the manufacturer's instructions on proper cleaning and
connection
procedures.
INSECTS
Spiders and insects can occasionally spin webs or make nests in the
burner
tubes.
These can obstruct gas flow which could result in a fire. This is known
as "Flashback"
and can cause serious damage to the bbq and create
an unsafe operating environment.
Frequent inspection and cleaning of the bumer tubes is recommended.
