!
While it is possible for one person to assemble the
barbecue, we recommend asking for the assistance of
another person when manoeuvring some of the larger
or heavier pieces.
Remove the barbecue and its components from the

TOOLS YOU WILL NEED
1. Flatten cardboard packaging and use this as a
protective work surface to assemble upon.
2. Some protective coating may need to be removed
from components prior to assembly.
3. Do not tighten screws and nuts until trolley is fully
assembled.
4. Pre-screwing of connection points for securing the
side shelves will assist in securing shelves smoothly.
5. Gas cylinder support bracket should always be

Australian Gas Association Approval No. 5881.
Barbecues must be used in accordance with the
installation requirements of your local gas supply authority,
or the appropriate installation standard AS5601/AG601.
Barbecues for use with cylinder gas are labelled
‘Universal LPG’. Barbecues for use with natural gas are
labelled ‘Natural Gas’and must be installed by an authorised
person. Check the gas type sticker attached to the barbecue.
Check that the label matches the gas type for the type of
installation in which it is to be installed.
GAS INSTALLATION CODES
The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the barbecue
is suitable for using the barbecue on bottled gas.
A gas regulator adjusted to have an outlet pressure of
2.75 kPa is supplied for connection to the gas cylinder. The
pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the
appliance must be used. Replacement pressure regulators
and hose assemblies must be those specified by the
appliance manufacturer.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to
the gas cylinder, take care to avoid unnecessary twisting of
the flexible hose. After the assembly has been secured,
turn on the gas and check for leaks by brushing a soap
and water solution over all connections. Refer to page 4.
The presence of bubbles will indicate a gas escape. DO
NOT TEST FOR GAS ESCAPES WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
If you are unable to correct the leak by tightening the
connections, turn off the gas and contact the supplier
immediately.
Always ensure the appliance is kept away from
flammable materials and the gas cylinder clear of any heat
source.
When changing over from an empty gas cylinder to a
full one, make sure this procedure is carried out in a flame
free atmosphere.
Inspect the gas hose when replacing the gas cylinder,
or once a year, whichever is more frequent. If the hose is
cracked, cut, abraded or damaged in any way, the appliance
must not be operated. The hose must be replaced if
damaged or when statutory conditions require it.
Contact your supplier if uncertain.
The hose and regulator should be disconnected from
the cylinder when the outdoor appliance is not in use.
NEVER OPERATE THIS BARBECUE
WITHOUT A REGULATOR.
!
HOSE AND REGULATOR SAFETY
The following minimum clearances from combustible
materials must be maintained: Top and rear - 450 mm,
sides - 250 mm.
Openings at the rear and sides of the appliance provide
air for combustion and must not be obstructed.

DO NOT use your barbecue in garages, porches, breezeways,
sheds or other enclosed areas. Your barbecue is to be used
OUTDOORS ONLY. Refer to page 22. The barbecue is not
intended to be installed in or used on recreational vehicles
and/or boats and should not be placed under any surface that
will burn. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air around the barbecue housing while in use.
LOCATION OF YOUR BARBECUE
Keep children away from barbecue during use and until
barbecue has cooled after you are finished. Do not allow
children to operate barbecue or to swing on handle.
PROTECT CHILDREN
NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A FLAME.
Prior to first use, and at the beginning of each new season
(or, if using bottled gas, whenever gas cylinder is changed), you
must check for gas leaks. Follow these steps:
1. Make soap solution by mixing one part liquid detergent
and one part water.
2. Turn burner control(s) to ‘OFF’, then turn on gas at source.
3. Apply the soap solution to all visible and accessible gas
connections. Bubbles will appear in the soap solution if
connections are not properly sealed. Tighten or rectify as
necessary.
4. If you have a gas leak you cannot rectify, turn off the gas
at the source, disconnect hose from barbecue and
immediately contact the distributor for assistance.
Refer to page 23 or back cover.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
The gas cylinder should be filled by a reputable gas dealer, or
exchanged at a reputable gas cylinder exchange outlet. Gas
cylinders should be visually inspected and re-qualified
periodically.
Always keep gas cylinder in an upright position. Always
close the cylinder valve when the barbecue is not in use.
Do not subject the gas cylinder to excessive heat.
If you store your barbecue indoors, ALWAYS disconnect and
remove gas cylinder FIRST, and store gas cylinder safely
outside. Gas cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well
ventilated area out of reach of children, and must not be
stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
This is a low pressure barbecue and must only be used with the
hose and regulator supplied.
Your barbecue is designed for use with a 9 kg gas cylinder.
Ensure gas cylinder conforms to Australian Standards.
DO NOT CONNECT YOUR BARBECUE TO A GAS
CYLINDER LESS THAN OR EXCEEDING THIS CAPACITY.
GAS CYLINDER USE & SAFETY
IF YOU SMELL GAS.
1. SHUT OFF GAS TO THE APPLIANCE AT
ITS SOURCE, IF POSSIBLE.
2. EXTINGUISH ANY OPEN FLAME.
3. ENSURE LID OR HOOD REMAINS IN
THE OPEN POSITION.
4. PERFORM GAS LEAK CHECK
PROCEDURE.
5. IF ODOUR CONTINUES, IMMEDIATELY
CALL YOUR GAS SUPPLIER OR FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
