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.

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.
