Lubricating the gas taps

If a gas tap becomes stiff, it should be dismantled, cleaned carefully with petrol and
smeared with a drop of special heat resistant grease.
The following operations should be carried but:
— disconnect the electrical power supply, close the gas supply tap from the mains or

cylinder.

— Remove the hob top plate by removing the corner screws and those under the

burners.

— Remove the two screws holding down the head flange.
— Remove the head flange and the retaining spring on the knob shaft.
— Remove the gas regulation cone, clean it with petrol and smear it with some heat

resistant grease, taking care not to obstruct any holes through which gas must pass.

— Re-assemble all the parts, making sure that the spring and the rotating axis of the

cone fitted to the knob shaft are correctly seated.
