ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Hold the barbecue on its side and release the legs from their respective retaining clips
at each end of the appliance. Swing the leg assemblies fully out so that the inner
struts can be unfolded into the erected position and press firmly into the same
retaining clips. Do not use the space between the body and the drain can retaining
hoop. Stand the barbecue upright and as level as possible. Use any standard ring-pull
drinks can as a fat drain container. Thread them through their ring-pull holes onto the
stainless steel clips, which emerge from the underpan within the area of the chromed
hoop at either end of the barbecue.

c) Extinguish all naked lights, cigarettes and other sources of ignition in the
vicinity of the barbecue.
d) The regulator can now be disconnected from the gas cylinder valve by
turning clockwise with the aid of the cylinder spanner provided.
e) Screw the black cylinder sealing plug into cylinder valve on the empty
cylinder by turning anticlockwise with a screwdriver.
f) Ensure that the cylinder valve on the full cylinder is turned ‘OFF’ by
turning in a clockwise direction. Remove the black sealing plug from the

WARNING: THE CHANGING OF CYLINDERS MUST BE CARRIED OUT
IN A FLAME FREE ENVIRONMENT.
The following paragraphs headed CONNECTING THE REGULATOR,
POSITIONING THE GAS CYLINDER, and LIGHTING THE BARBECUE must be
carried out in strict sequence.
CONNECTING THE REGULATOR
Check that the hose is completely over the nozzles on the regulator and on the
barbecue and that it is secured firmly in place with a hose clip at each end. Examine
the flexible hose regularly and get your dealer to fit new hose if perished, worn or
damaged in any way.

POSITIONING OF THE GAS CYLINDER
Ensure that the gas cylinder is not placed in contact or underneath the barbecue. We
recommend that the cylinder should be placed as far from the barbecue as possible
without placing undue strain on the hose.
Ensure that the cylinder is placed on a flat, level surface and that the hose is neither
stretched nor twisted.
The cylinder must be located to give good access to connect and disconnect the
regulator to or from the cylinder.
POSITIONING THE BARBECUE
The barbecue is designed to be freestanding.
Ensure that the barbecue is placed on a flat surface with the clearances specified in the
figure below between any side, rear or overhead obstructions. When selecting the
location ensure the barbecue is not placed near combustible materials or in a windy
environment.

Should a gas leak be suspected, close the cylinder valve and extinguish all naked
lights. LOCATE THE LEAK BY SMELL, OR WITH A SOAPY SOLUTION
BRUSHED ONTO JOINTS. A LEAK WILL SHOW UP AS BUBBLES. NEVER
USE A MATCH OR NAKED LIGHT TO SEARCH FOR LEAKS.
STORING THE BARBECUE
It is important that the barbecue is stored in dirt free, damp free conditions indoors
when not in use for any period of time. The barbecue should always be disconnected
from the cylinder during storage.
The cylinder must always be stored outdoors when not in use.
The barbecue should be stored in an upright position and be secured if necessary.
CLEANING THE BARBECUE
Burn off all fatty debris inside the body of the barbecue after cooking. Allow the
barbecue to cool before moving. The grill top may be cleaned in place with a wire
brush and then finished off with steel wool. The rest of the appliance can be cleaned
with hot soapy water. TAKE CARE NOT TO BLOCK ANY PORTION OF THE
BURNER AERATION PORT, LOCATED NEXT TO EITHER GAS CONTROL
VALVE.
Ensure the grease drain holes under the ends of the appliance are clear and will allow
the fat to flow away into the drain cans. The drain cans must be removed before the
barbecue is folded for storage. Any variety of drinks ring-pull can may be used, and
later discarded.
Fold and stand the barbecue on end with one control valve below. An ejection chute
is provided to allow any loose debris to fall out. Repeat this operation on the other
end of the appliance to clear the remaining burner chamber.
