PROBLEM SOLUTION
When attempting to light my
braai, it will not light
immediately.
Make sure you have a spark while you are trying to light the
burner (if no spark) . Check if the battery is installed properly.
Ensure that the wire is connected to the electrode assembly.
Clean wire (s) and / or electrode with rubbing alcohol and a clean
swab. Wipe with a clean cloth.
Check to see if the other burners operate. If so. Check the gas
orifice on the malfunctioning burner for an obstruction.
Regulator makes noise.
Vent hose on the regulator may be plugged or regulator may be
faulty. Ensure the vent hole on the regulator is not obstructed.
Clear the hole, close the gas control valves. Wait ten minutes and
re-start.
Check your flames for proper performance. If the flames are not
correct, replace regulator.
Full size cover does not fit the
braai.
Cover may be incorrect for your braai. It may be a tight fit.
Ensure the cover is the correct length for your braai.
Measure it left to right. Compare to the braai’s measurement.
Compare the location and size of the hood portion of the cover to
your braai.
Spread the cover and allow it to relax, preferably in warm sunlight
or in a warm room.
For braai with a side shelf bunch the cover like a sock, put on left
to right.
braai only heats to 200-300
degrees.
Check to see if the fuel hose is bent or kinked.
Make sure the braai area is clear of dust.
Make sure the burner and orifices are clean.
Check for spiders and insects.
The regulator has a safety device that restricts the flow of gas in
the event of a leak. This safety device can be triggered without a
gas leak. To reset the safety device, turn off all burners and close
the LP tank valve. Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank and
wait one minute. Reconnect the regulator to the LP tank and
slowly open the LP tank valve until the valve is fully open. Light all
burners and observe the temperature.
braai takes a long time to
preheat.
Normal preheat 250-300 degrees, takes about 10-15 min. Cold
weather and wind may effect your preheat time.
If you are using volcanic rock or briquettes they can increase the
preheat time and maximum temperature.
Burner flames are not light blue.
Too much or not enough air for the flame.
Elevation is the principal cause, however cold weather can affect
the mixture. Burner adjustment may be required.
braai is in a windy location.
