Check for gas leaks
WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.
Note - All factory made connections have been
thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burners have
been flame tested. As a safety precaution you should
recheck all fittings for leaks before using your Weber
Gas Barbecue. Shipping and handling may have
loosened or damaged a gas fitting.
WARNING: Perform these leak checks even though
your barbecue was assembled.
You will need: a soap and water solution and a rag or
brush to apply it.
To perform leak checks: open tank valve by turning the
tank valve handwheel counterclockwise. Figure 20.
DANGER
Do not use an open flame to check
for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks
or open flames in the area while you
check for leaks. This will result in a fire or
explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death and damage to property.

When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF at
the source and rinse connections with water.
Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the
soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If
bubbles form or if a bubble grows there is a leak.
Note - Since some leak test solutions, including soap
and water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections
should be rinsed with water after checking for leaks.
WARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak checking.
