OPERATION
Before lighting
Be sure the Snappy King is at least 600mm away from any combustible surfaces.
Place the unit on a firm solid surface.
The Snappy King must be level - adjust using thumbscrews on legs to raise or lower each end.
Make sure fat container is in place.
Turn gas burner controls to the OFF position.
Check there are no leaks - see Leak Test
Lighting Instructions
1. Open lid before lighting.
2. Turn on gas at the 9kg gas cylinder.
3. You will hear a click, the burner is now alight.
4. If the burner does not light try again.
5. The flame will be on high so adjust the flame to required heat.
6. Close lid and enjoy your cooking!
7. After use - turn off at valve on gas cylinder.
Manual Lighting
1. Turn on gas at the 9 kg gas cylinder.
2. Place a lit match through the viewing aperture adjacent to burner, turn tap to high and
hold down for 5 seconds once lit.
3. Repeat steps 4 to 6 from previous Lighting Section above.
Maintenance
Empty fat collection container after use, and wash with hot soapy water.
Wash the hotplate before use with warm soapy water to remove any metal dust and oil. Then oil the
plate ready for use. (This helps to prevent rust)
After using the hotplate, don’t wash all the grease off as this exposes the steel to the elements and
can cause rust. Simply scrape the plate down and wipe over with a paper towel, leaving a film of
grease on the plate to protect it.
To clean the Roaster after use, first of all, remove the burner. Wash unit with warm soapy water, you
may need to scrub with a scourer, but try to avoid using steel wool, as particles from the steel wool
can become embedded in the stainless steel and cause what looks like tiny rust spots.
Regular cleaning (at least annually) will ensure your Roaster provides many years of reliable
operation.

Troubleshooting
1. Burner will not light:
Check gas cylinder valve is on . Check there is plenty of gas in the cylinder . Check that spark
occurs at burner port hole, if not then check wiring connections not loose . Check that
thermocouple is within the flame when burner is alight .Check the gas control valve is working
correctly and is on High setting . Otherwise refer to service/repair section .
2. Burner lights but does not stay on:
Check that thermocouple at burner is still within a flame when burner is alight . Check
connection to gas valve is not loose . Any thermocouple replacement must be performed by
an authorised person, refer to service/repair section .
3. Flame is low, excessively yellow or depositing soot:
Check the gas cylinder is not nearly empty (i.e . low pressure) . Check that burner ports are not
blocked by removing the burner tube assembly and clean as necessary . Check that gas valve
is at correct setting . Check there is no blockage (e.g . spider webs) at the burner gas entry
mixing tube . To remove the burner simply undo the barrel bolt at the end of the roaster,
unscrew the regulator at the gas cylinder and slide the burner out through the hole .
4. Flame is not sharp and blue but is blurry and “soft” and giving off smelly combustion
products:
This indicates the burner flame is starving for air . Check all ventilation openings in the roaster
for blockage .
If any of the above conditions cannot be fixed or if the roaster does not
perform correctly, contact the place of purchase, they may be an authorised
service centre, or alternatively return the product to Heatlie for repair .

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
ROASTING
Always roast with the lid down.
Make sure the burner is in the rear position. (Do not use 2 burners for roasting.)
Use the Rack to roast, not the Hotplate.
Following lighting instructions, start on high for half an hour, then turn down to low (this seals
in the flavour).
1. If you have a Vegie rack (double up), remember it is hotter on the higher rack, so food will cook
quicker.
2. These may vary with weather conditions and are only a guide:-
Whole Snapper 8-9kg 1 to 1.5 hours
Whole turkeys 2 to 3 hours
Leg Lamb/Roast Beef 3 to 4 hours (depending on size)
Roast vegetables 1 hour approx.
Scones/cakes/puddings varies - much the same as an oven
Refer to our web site www.heatlie.com.au for more ideas and recipes.
You can actually cook anything in a Snappy King that you can cook in an oven or on a
barbecue, it is only limited by your imagination.
