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
carton. Lay components out within easy reach. Do not
throw the shipping carton away – unfold flat and use as
a protective work surface upon which to assemble the
barbecue.
GENERAL
1. Flatten cardboard packaging and use this as a
protective work surface to assemble upon.
2. Do not tighten screws and nuts until trolley is fully
assembled.
3. Pre-screwing of connection points for securing the
side shelves will assist in securing shelves smoothly.
4. Gas cylinder support bracket should always be
assembled over wheel-side of trolley.

Australian Gas Association Approval No. 6029 and 6024.
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 autho-
rised 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 barbecue is not in use.
NEVER OPERATE THIS BARBECUE
WITHOUT A REGULATOR.

DO NOT use your barbecue in garages, porches, breezeways,
sheds or other enclosed areas. Your barbecue is to be used
OUTDOORS ONLY. 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.
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.
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), it is a
must for you to 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 gas connections. Bubbles
will appear in the soap solution if connections are not
properly sealed. Tighten or repair as necessary.
4. If you have a gas leak you cannot repair, turn off the gas
at the source, disconnect hose from barbecue and
immediately contact the supplier for assistance.
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 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. 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 4.5 kg or 9 kg gas
cylinder.
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 REMAINS IN THE OPEN
POSITION.
4. IF ODOUR CONTINUES, IMMEDIATELY
CALL YOUR GAS SUPPLIER OR FIRE
DEPARTMENT.

1. Study the assembly diagram and check the parts
as listed. Identify and separate into groups.
2.
DO NOT TIGHTEN BOLTS UNTIL ALL
FITTINGS ARE IN POSITION.
3. Place the trolley legs with black castor securing
seats, on their narrow sides.
4. Position a right-angled brace between the legs as
shown. Connect each leg to the brace using the
12 mm screws provided.
5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 using the remaining two leg
pieces.
6. Position the solid base tray in alignment with the
openings provided in each leg. Secure the base
tray using the bolts and nuts provided. Finger
tighten only.
See diagram 1.
7. Carefully place the partly assembled trolley to a
laying down position and screw the castors into
the legs with the pre-fitted castor seats in them.
Fasten firmly using a shifter.
8. Secure wheels to the other legs
(with axle holes),
using the long axle bolts and nuts provided. Be
sure to insert the washer onto the axle bolt so
that it is positioned between the trolley leg and
securing nut.
Clip hubcaps into position in centre of wheels.
Refer diagram 2.
9. Attach the gas cylinder support to the trolley legs
using 12 mm screws.
The partly assembled trolley is now ready to
connect with the barbecue body.
10. Remove all loose components such as flametamer,
accessories and instruction pack from within the

11. Manoeuvre the barbecue body into position and
align the openings in the leg assembly with the
openings in the barbecue body side panels.
Ensure that the wheels are on the left side of the
barbecue body.

hook bracket, thread through the lowest openings
in the trolley legs
(wheel side) into the barbecue
body. Tighten with nuts. In some cases, the nuts
are pre-welded to the inside of the barbecue body
side panels.
