BARBECUE PARTS LIST
2. To remove the Cabinet Trolley Doors simply
push in the spring catches on the back of
each Hinge. This will allow the release of
the hinge from the Hinge Plates that are
attached to the side walls of the Cabinet
Trolley.

5
NOTE: Sometimes the Hinges may require a
slight jiggle as they can get stuck.
NOTE: We suggest to do any adjustment of
the Doors after the BBQ is assembled and in
position.
The Castor wheels on the base of the Cabinet
Trolley are also adjustable in height and are to
be used as the primary adjustment for levelling
the cabinet Trolley.
NOTE: Be very careful not to scratch the
Roasting Hood when removing it from within the
Cabinet.
NOTE: Be very careful with the Doors. Do not lay
them down where they might get scratched or
damaged while you are removing the Roasting
Hood.
6. To re-attach the Doors back onto the
Cabinet Trolley, simply line up the top
and bottom Hinges on the Doors with the
Hinge Plates tted to the Side Panels of the
Cabinet Trolley. Then simply side them back
into place making sure to latch the Tongue
of the Hinge underneath the Hinge Plate.
You will feel it click into place when it is
attached.
3. As you push in each catch on the back of
the Hinge, just lift the Door away from the
Cabinet to remove it.
4. Now that the Doors are removed, remove
any packaging away from the insides of the
Cabinet Trolley and the ends of the Roasting
Hood. This will allow the Roasting Hood to be
removed from inside of the Cabinet Trolley a
lot easier.
5. Once you have got the Roasting Hood out
of the Cabinet Trolley place it aside and
re-attach the Doors to the Cabinet Trolley.
7. The Door Hinges are adjustable, they can be
adjusted in and out, sideways left and right
as well as up and down, offering you the
ability to ne tune the position of the Doors
once they are tted.
8. It is best to leave the levelling of the Cabinet
Trolley until the very end of the assembly and
installation process to avoid doing it more
than once.
9. To adjust the level of the Cabinet Trolley, use
a 17mm spanner to screw the nut on top of
each of the Castor wheels. You will notice as
you turn the nuts that the Door heights start
to change, when the Doors are level the
Cabinet Trolley should be level as well.

6
13. Now position the side shelf in between the
two shelf brackets and using the bolt, spacer
and nut, attach the shelf onto the brackets.
10. If you have chosen the optional Side Shelves
for the Cabinet Trolley you will need to rst
t the two shelf brackets supplied with the
shelves onto each side of the BBQ with the
bolts provided.
11. The shelf brackets should mirror each other
on the front and at the back of the BBQ as
per the photo below. The bolts need to be
carefully lined up as they screw into nuts
welded inside the sides of the BBQ Body.
12. Bolt the handles to the end of the side shelf.
NOTE: The holes in the brackets are oversized
and may require a washer to be tted to avoid
the head of the nuts from pulling through the
holes in the brackets.
NOTE: Push the bolt through the hole in the shelf
bracket rst and then through the slot in the
side of the shelf. Now slide the spacer over the
bolt and into the slot in the shelf and tighten the
nut. The spacer allows you to tighten the nut up
rmly yet still allowing the shelf to fold up and
down.

7
14. Next, place the Flare Guards into position
inside the BBQ.
15. Next place the Cooking Grills into the BBQ
above the Flare Guards and place the Solid
Hot Plate next to them.
16. The Roasting Hood can now be tted.
Remove any packaging, cable ties and
components from inside the Hood. You
should have a Rear Cooking Shelf, Roasting
Rack, Drip Pan and Handle for the Roasting
Hood inside.
17. First attach the Handle onto the front of the
Roasting Hood with the nuts provided.
18. To t the Roasting Hood onto the BBQ, the
base of the Roasting Hood has 4 x locating
tags that t into corresponding slots on the
top of the BBQ.
19. Slide the angled tags on the front of
the base of the Roasting Hood into the
corresponding slots in the front of the BBQ.
You will need to angle the base of the
Roasting Hood down toward the front of the
BBQ so that it allows the tags to slot into the
BBQ easier.
NOTE: The Flare Guards are only required
beneath the open Cooking Grill section of the
BBQ.
NOTE: The Flare Guards are NOT to be placed
under the Solid Cooking Plate as it will reduce
the ability of the BBQ to heat the Solid Cooking
Plate.
The smaller Flare Guards are to be placed
above each of the Burners that will be sitting
below the Cooking Grills.
The Larger Flare Guards are to be placed in
between each of the smaller Flare Guards.

8
20. Once the front tags are located into the
BBQ, the tags on the rear of the Roasting
Hood base will locate straight down into the
corresponding slots on the back of the BBQ
for secure attachment.
21. Now place the Rear Cooking Shelf into the
rear of the Roasting Hood onto the support
brackets.
22. The Roasting Rack and Pan are both used
when Roasting and can be stored away
inside the Cabinet Tolley until required.
NOTE: The Rear Cooking Shelf can be stored
away inside the back of the Roasting Hood if
not required.

9
The SS Wok has an optional Solid Hot Plate
available as an accessory, if you have one
it must be placed directly above the SS Wok
Burner allowing an equal air gap either side of
the Burner when it is in use.
23. If you have a GTR SS or GTR S Model BBQ,
then you will have a Wok Burner integrated
into the Body of the BBQ. Remove any cable
ties securing the Wok Trivet and then place it
back into position above the Wok Burner.
26. The BBQ is now ready for installation.
25. Now check the Grease Tray is free from
packaging cable ties by sliding it in and out.
It is located inside a perforated panel in
the front of the BBQ just above the Cabinet
Trolley Doors.
To access the Grease Tray simply lift-up the
hinged perforated panel from the bottom and
inside you will see the Grease Tray, it should be
located roughly in the middle of the base of the
BBQ.
Pull out the Grease Tray, it should slide in and
out easily between the two locating rails. Make
sure there are no cable ties attached restricting
it from sliding in and out. Slide the Grease Tray
back into position and fold down the hinged
front panel to secure it in place.
24. The SS Wok Burner can be tted with an
optional Hinged Flat Weather Cover/ Lid or a
Roasting Hood to protect it from the weather
when not in use. Read any Assembly,
Installation and Operation Instructions
packaged with the Roasting Hood.
NOTE: The Trivet is used to support either a Wok
or Pot with a diameter of no less than 230mm.
NOTE: The S Wok can only be t/ installed with a
Hinged Flat Weather Cover/ Lid.
WARNING: A Roasting Hood must not be t/
installed above it.
NOTE: A Solid Hot Plate cannot be used above
the S Wok Burner.

READ THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ON THE FRONT OF THE BARBECUE.
This barbecue is designed and approved for
outdoor use only.
Be mindful of the location of the installation of
the barbecue.
If you are using the roasting hood it is better that
the prevailing wind blows into the front of the
BBQ during cooking.
NOTE: Strong winds blowing into the back or
across the back of the hood whilst cooking with
the hood closed can cause overheating of the
BBQ. The Roasting Hood is designed so that Hot
air from inside the Roasting Hood is released
through the vent in the top of the Roasting
Hood when it is shut while roasting.
Strong winds can prevent the hot air escaping
out of this vent and may even in some cases
push the hot air down and out the front of the
base of the BBQ Fascia where the cold fresh air
is designed to enter the BBQ Body.

PROPANE GAS TO NATURAL GAS
CONVERSION PROCEDURE FOR
AUTHORIZED INSTALLER
For alternative types of installation, contact your
nearest dealer.
• Disconnect the gas supply and remove the
plate, grills, are guards and burners from the
barbecue and the Wok burner if tted.
• Remove the main injectors and replace
them with the correct 1.7mm injectors for
each main burner. If a Wok burner is tted
replace the Wok injector with the correct
size required for Natural Gas written on the
data plate.
• Re-assemble the burners, are guards, plate
and grills.
• Replace the PROPANE GAS hose and
regulator with an approved natural gas
regulator and hose.
• Turn the gas on and test for leaks, repair if
necessary.
• Light 3 burners and turn them to high and set
the pressure at 1 KPA.
• Now turn all the burners to the “LOW” setting
and check the ame pattern is steady, if
necessary you can adjust the low setting by
removing the gas control knobs and insert
the 2.4mm slotted screw driver supplied into
the valve shaft, the “low” setting can be
adjusted up or down to suit your gas pressure
by turning the screw driver.
• Turn the screw driver anti-clockwise to adjust
the ame height up or turn it clockwise to
Turn it down.
NOTE: you want to achieve the lowest ame
height at “LOW” but you don’t want to
adjust it too low as it could blow out on its
own or due to a breeze.
• Check the operation of the ignition to the
burners and make any necessary adjust-
ment. Note Natural gas is lighter than air you
may need to adjust the ignition probe up a
little higher for it to light.
• Ensure the data plate is changed / altered
to contain correct information i.e. remove
the old Gas type label and replace it with a
natural gas label and date of conversion.

gets too hot, the recommended cooking
temperature is 180 degrees with a Roasting
Hood closed.

the are will subside as the temperature will
decrease.
Always turn the meat with tongs, a fork will
pierce the sealed surface and let out the juices.
A few green gum leaves placed onto the
cooking grill or hot plate will give an Aussie bush
avour to your meat or vegetables.
Don’t slash the steaks to see if they are cooked,
press the steak on the top if its soft it is rare, if it
is slightly springy it’s medium rare, less springy
medium and when rm its well done.
If time permits marinade the meat for added
avour and tenderness. A basic wine, herb,
onion and garlic marinade is ne.
Fruit and vegetable accompaniments can be
cooked alongside meat or grilled in a Wok on
the Wok burner. Some are best wrapped in
foil to retain juices or you can place them on
skewers.
Go easy on sugar and honey in marinades and
basting sauces as very sweet mixtures tend to
scorch easily.
Grilling the perfect steak requires the grill to be
per-heated well so that the grill is hot, this whey
when you place your steak on the grill it will sear
the meat quickly on the outside of the steak, it is
best to turn the steaks over often, say every 20-
30 seconds as this will ensure the meats fat and
enzymes are evenly cooked, you may like to
cook your steaks until the blood shows through
them before you turn them but you will not be
able to cook rare or medium rare steaks this
way as they will start to overcook in this manner.
Place sausages on the grill or plate and turn
them frequently to brown the surface evenly.
Be careful not to use to much heat as sausages
contain a lot of fatty oil which will cause the

sausage when cooked over the open grill.
Bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes and onions
are best cooked on the plate you can toast
buns or bread on the open grill.
