Only to be used with the Otto Wilde Grill - please ensure correct use of gas regulator at all times. Item is shipped standard with all new Otto Grill purchases (Original OFB, Lite & Pro).
Follow these simple steps every time you use your grill:
- Inspect the hose for signs of perishing or cracking – if the hose is cracked or perished, don’t use the BBQ until the hose has been replaced.
- Use a squeezy bottle filled with soapy water to check the connection for gas leaks (use dishwashing liquid and water). Squirt the connection with the suds from the soapy water solution.
- Bubbles will form if gas is escaping.
- Leak-test the connection to the cylinder every time you connect it or change cylinders.
- Serious leaks are common and can be very dangerous.
- Check and leak test the connection every time you barbecue.
If no bubbles appear, you’re safe to cook.
What to do if you see bubbles:
- Switch off the gas immediately
- Re-check the hose to make sure it hasn’t perished
- Re-check connections to make sure they are tight – get into the habit of doing this regularly
- Check that the O ring on the connection hasn’t perished
- Check the gas cylinder for damage
Note: you can’t refill an LP Gas cylinder if it hasn’t been tested for over 10 years, or if the cylinder has been damaged. Always exchange LP Gas cylinders at a reputable supplier.
Re-test with soapy water, and if bubbles still form turn off the gas. Your LP Gas cylinder or hose may need replacing.
