ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS.
Take the Wok Cooker from the carton and remove all plastic lm and plastic ties. Visually inspect
the appliance for any sign of damage.
Place the square wok support grate on the cast bowl with the ame retaining lip towards the
operator, as on the front page image.
Check the rubber hose is connected to the appliance and that there is no damage to the hose. If
the hose is not connected, get a competent person to make the connection and ensure that a leak
test is performed before lighting. See ‘Lighting the Wok Cooker’, Page 4 for Leak Test instruction.
POSITIONING THE WOK COOKER OUTDOORS
This is a COMMERCIAL HIGH PERFORMANCE appliance and Utmost Care must be taken when
positioning. Particular care must be given to overhead combustible materials.
Start by selecting a location from where the gas cylinder can be placed on a at and stable surface
away from the appliance without stretching or twisting the hose. Ensure the hose will not be a trip
hazard. See ‘Positioning the Gas Cylinder’, Page 3.
Stand the Wok Cooker on a at and stable table or bench with a non-combustible surface.
Allow a minimum 600mm (about two feet) clearance to the back and sides from any
combustible material.
INSTALLING THE WOK COOKER IN A SUITABLY
VENTILATED KITCHEN OR IN A PARTLY ENCLOSED
OUTDOOR SPACE (GAZEBO)
The user must NOT install the Wok Cooker. Installation must be in accordance with the regulations
in force and the installer must be a Qualied Gas Engineer. See the INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE and SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS, which are also on our website.
IMPORTANT
This is a COMMERCIAL HIGH PERFORMANCE appliance and particular
attention must be given to overhead combustible materials.
NEVER operate at full rate unless covered by a pan.
ALWAYS use a competent person to assess the risk of re from overhead
combustible materials.

POSITIONING THE GAS CYLINDER
Ensure the cylinder is placed on a rm and level surface and that the hose is neither stretched nor
twisted. The hose should be routed away from the Wok Cooker without touching any hot surfaces.
The cylinder must also be positioned to give good access to connect and disconnect the regulator,
or to turn off in an emergency.
Ensure the cylinder has a permanent ow of fresh air and that there can be no accumulation of unburnt gases. PROPANE IS HEAVIER THAN AIR.
CONNECTING THE REGULATOR TO THE GAS CYLINDER
Check the condition of the hose and that it is completely over the nozzle on the regulator and the
nozzle on the Wok Cooker and that it is secured rmly. The hose may be secured by a continuous
circular hose clip or by the metal swaging process we use at our factory. ‘Jubilee’ clips with side
screw tightening are not recommended as they do not impart a perfectly circular pressure and can
even push a section of hose away from the nozzle.
Examine the exible hose regularly and get a qualied gas engineer to t a new hose if
perished, worn or damaged in any way. PROPANE LPgas ATTACKS NATURAL RUBBER.
USE ONLY HOSE MARKED ISO 3821.
Remove the plastic plug from the cylinder outlet and save for replacement into the cylinder when
empty. Use the spanner provided to tighten the regulator to the propane cylinder in an ANTI-CLOCKWISE direction, as viewed from the hose connection.

LIGHTING THE WOK COOKER
OFF
1) Turn the supply from the cylinder ON by turning the cylinder valve anticlockwise and immediate-
ly carry out a leakage test in the absence of any naked ame. Brush a soapy water solution on the
connections at both ends of the hose and along the hose itself. Turn OFF the cylinder valve and
call a qualied gas engineer if bubbles appear.
2) If no leaks are detected, proceed to light the pilot light. The pilot light is visible when lit within the
square cast bowl, and must be lit using the piezo sparking device or manually with a gas match
before any gas will ow to the main burner. When lighting for the rst time or after disconnection
of the hose it may take a couple of minutes for the extremely low consumption of gas to reach the
pilot light, after the control knob is pushed in at the pilot lighting position.
PUSH, LIGHT, HOLD 15secs

(PUSH-TURN FOR HALF RATE)
FULL RATE
TURNING OFF THE WOK COOKER
1) First, turn OFF the gas supply at the cylinder valve in a CLOCKWISE direction to a rm ‘Stop’.
Next, turn OFF at the Wok Cooker.
2) Detach the regulator from the gas cylinder by unscrewing in a CLOCKWISE direction, when
viewed from the hose connection and REPLACE THE PROTECTIVE PLASTIC PLUG.
3) Wait for the Wok Cooker to cool before attempting to move it.
CHANGING CYLINDERS
THERE MUST BE NO NAKED FLAME IN THE VICINITY WHEN
CHANGING CYLINDERS.
1) FIRST turn OFF the gas supply at the cylinder valve by turning the valve CLOCKWISE to a rm
‘Stop’, even if you think the cylinder is empty. ‘Empty’ cylinders still pose a danger of explosion.
2) Turn OFF the control valve on the Wok Cooker and disconnect the regulator from the gas
cylinder. Now replace the protective plastic plug into the empty gas cylinder.
EMPTY CYLINDERS MUST BE SITED WELL AWAY FROM THE WOK COOKER IN A SECURE
AND FLAME-FREE ENVIRONMENT, WITH THEIR PROTECTIVE PLUGS FIRMLY SCREWED
IN POSITION.

CLEANING, STORAGE and MAINTENANCE
The stainless steel components can be cleaned with hot soapy water or a proprietary stainless
steel cleaning agent. The cast components may oxidise and can be refreshed by spraying with
a high temperature black ‘barbecue’ paint from most hardware stores. Do not spray onto a hot
surface. Follow the paint manufacturer’s instructions.
Store the Wok Cooker in damp-free, hygienic conditions and DISCONNECTED from the gas
cylinder.
PROPANE CYLINDERS MUST ALWAYS BE STORED OUTDOORS. Consult your propane
supplier for the safest way to store cylinders, in your particular circumstances.
This Wok Cooker is a commercial high performance appliance and a FULL SERVICE is
recommended at least once a year, according to usage.
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE MUST NOT BE CARRIED OUT BY THE OWNER. ALWAYS
USE A REGISTERED GAS-SAFE ENGINEER, OR CONTACT US FOR ADVICE.
A current list of qualied gas engineers can be found on the CINDERS website

TROUBLE SHOOTING
In order of probability;
1) Pilot light won’t light. The pilot light uses very little gas so it will take a couple of minutes for
the gas to reach it when new or after the hose has been disconnected from the Wok Cooker. Light
manually with a gas match inside the bowl if the sparker is defective. If it lights only when the
control is pushed in then the problem is the thermocouple which must be replaced by a qualied
gas engineer.
2) Main Burner will not light. The main burner will not light unless the pilot light is lit.
3) Low power. Minimum cylinder size is 19kg for continuous use. Check the regulator is rated at
a minimum of up to 1.5kg/hr propane. A full service may be required if ames are not a pure blue
with occasional ashes of yellow and emit only a gentle roar at full rate
4) Flames ‘lift’ from the burner with a loud roar. Check the regulator is either 37mbar or 50mbar
low pressure and NOT a high pressure type.
