    You sure you've turned the regulator off?

    Is that the switch to stop gas coming through to the bbq?

    The metal bit on the end of the hose from the BBQ that clips onto the gas cylinder. It should have a valve on it to turn the gas on and off.

    I'm a bit vague on the details but I think there's something in the design that prevents an open value being disconnected.
