Assembly procedure
1. Fix the ash tray extension panel – left (F) and right (G) to the ash tray (D) as shown in below diagram ((H) Screw
5Pcs / (I) Wing nut 1Pc).
2. Having made the decision where to erect the barbecue (It requires a strong and even base) you need the following
material and tools to build the barbecue which not included:
a. At least 102 bricks (90 bricks with approximately dimension: 225x112.5x75 mm + 12 bricks with approximately
dimension: 112.5x112.5x75 mm) (Bricks not included)
b. 8-10 kg cement
c. 40-50 kg sand
d. Water
e. Brick trowel, knife, scissors, plumb line, brick hammer
3. Place the first course of bricks in position around the three sides of the cooking grill. Score or mark their positions
on the foundation.
4. Build six course of normal brickwork above ground level according to the shown pattern in sketch 1 and 2.
5. The seventh course needs to be built according to sketch 3 (Build seventh course of bricks to the pattern as
shown in the Diagram. Before laying the eighth course, place 2 pieces grill supports (E) in mortar on each side
protruding at least 25mm from the brickwork, so that they will evenly support the ash tray (D) when the mortar is set.
One support on each side should be approximately 120mm from the back wall. Check for exact position by offering
the ash tray up to the supports before the mortar is hard). This course will support the charcoal grid. For the eighth
course see sketch 2.
6. Ninth and eleventh course need to be built as shown in sketch 3. These courses will provide the lower and higher
cooking grill position. Twelfth course to be built as shown in sketch 2. All the cooking grid supports are assembled
well, please refer to sketch 4.

Barbecue safety hints
1. Outdoor use only.
2. Always stand your barbecue on firm, level and heat-resist surface, well away from wooden fences, overhanging
trees and other flammable materials.
3. The barbecue must always be under the control of a competent adult. Keep young children and pets at a safe
distance once the charcoal has ignited.
4. Never use white spirit, paraffin, petrol, methylated spirit, lighter fuel or similar solvents to light the barbecue. To
help ignition, only use firelighters that comply with EN 1860-3. Never add lighting fuel, once the charcoal has
ignited.
5. Never attempt to move the barbecue after the charcoal has been lit, as it will become very hot. Always wait until the
barbecue has completely cooled before attempting to move it.
6. Do not leave a lighted barbecue unattended, even for the shortest period of time.
7. The barbecue should be heated up and the fuel kept red hot for at least 30 minutes prior to the first cooking on the
barbecue.
8. Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
9. Most metal parts will become very hot during use. The use of protective mittens/gloves is recommended when
handling the grill, turning food, etc.
10. Flare-ups will occur when the hot fat from food drips onto the charcoal. Keep a jet water sprayer at hand to
extinguish any flames and prevent food from burning.

12. Remember, ensure the charcoal has completely cooled before attempting to empty the barbecue and clean it.

it should be stored in a garage or garden shed when not in use.

Barbecue helpful hints
1. To make it easier to clean your barbecue after use line the firebowl with aluminum cooking foil, shine side up.
Remember to leave ventilation holes clear by piercing the foil where necessary.
2. Charcoal is available in lump wood form (large irregular pieces) and as briquets (uniformly sized pieces). As a
guide lump-wood charcoal is best in barbecue for quickly cooked foods such as sausages and burgers whilst
briquets are more suitable for a roast as they burn longer and hotter.
3. It is not advisable to completely fill the firebowl as the barbecue may become far too hot to cook successfully.
4. If the fire flares up due to dripping fat then douse the flames lightly with a fine water spray.
5. When you have finished cooking never pour cold water directly on the coals to extinguish them as this may
damage your barbecue. Use old cinders, sand or a fine water spray.
6. To clean your barbecue soak the cooking grill and tools in hot soapy water as soon as possible after use. Dry
thoroughly and store in a dry place. Do not leave your barbecue outside unprotected.
