LPG Grain Dryer

As I mentioned in a previous post, I have an oldish Lely drier which is in good condition and runs on LPG. I haven't used it for drying yet though (didn't need it last year) only for cleaning/ freshening up grain. As the burner has not been used for a long time I'm a bit wary about just hooking it up to the tank and firing it up. Apparently it was all working ok when it was last used but am wondering if I should get an expert to check it over or just cross my fingers and hope for the best. If the former, does anyone have any recommendations as to who I could use please? I'm in Wiltshire.

Needs a Corgi registered fitter, I think I'd be inclined to have it looked at especially with an unknown history. I've seen pictures of one that went BANG, the fuel tank landed 1/4 of a mile away.

I think one of our neighbours got TH White to sort his gas drier when it was playing up.
