Please could anyone advice me on how the gas locker locks or should lock. I can not get them to lock at all one of them the barrel also pulls out. I have read the manual and have been trying a, close locker door and secure the bolt to hold the door shut (can do that no problem so far). B, push the handle forward hold and turn the key quarter of a turn clockwise turn the key back should be locked. The lock does not lock on either side of the gas locker door.

Any advice on my next move please!

Steve this photo shows the inside detail of the lock if the barrel pulls out then the nut and securing retainer must be missing ..... look for them inside the locker.

Hiya Neville checked both internal nuts and retainers are in place doing my head in. I haven't had the gas locker locked for some time now thought it was time I investigated there has got to be a cure!

The lock unlock procedure

unlock
insert key in lock turn anticlockwise 90 deg turn handle 90 deg anticlockwise
repeat for other lock

locking
turn handle 90 deg clockwise push key to push handle in turn key 90 deg clockwise remove key
repeat for other lock.

latches in unlocked position (sideways) when locked should be upright

Thank you Aaron I did the usual search and tried also google but have not found anything to help at the moment. Thank you Roger I will ask him very nicely at the meet if he only tells me how gladly appreciate that. Thank you Neville for your assistance so far but once again tried and nothing doing except my head in!

The above is the correct procedure I went out and tried it on mine ......... sounds like you might need some new locks Jandi would be favourite to get some.

I occasionally have to lock the handle before pushing it into place. That does the trick.

Thank you all once again gentleman absolutely lashing it down at the moment soon as it dries up ill give that a go.

The 'lock then thump' technique was the Eriba UK (Lechlade) method shown me years ago. It was a surprise at the time but has been the way I've done it on 3 successive Eribas since then.
