VULCANUS®
Outdoor replace design with grilling plate
God of amesGod of ames
Congratulations on your purchase of the VULCANUS® grill.
You have chosen a unique product with a luxury patented design and EU certication for food.
Please read the instructions carefully before using the grill for the rst time.
Instructions for use
1) Installation
VULCANUS® is made of several pieces that are attached to each other and the whole is anchored to
a pallet. Mounting will not, therefore, be a problem for you. We recommend transporting it to your
chosen location using a pallet cart. In most cases, this pallet cart is available from shipping companies
that VULCANUS® will bring to you. Since all VULCANUS® models are heavy, we recommend that at least
two physically t persons be present during handling.
a) Select where you will place your new VULCANUS®. Be sure to place it at a safe distance from
any ammable items or those that cannot handle heat. Remember that a light surface such as stone,
etc. is easily dirty, for example, by ash, cooking grease and rainwater owing into the re pit.
b) Next to the selected location, start unpacking your new VULCANUS®. Remove the binding material
and cardboard packaging. Ceramic storage pads are already in place and you only need to check that
they are in the correct position after loosening them. Now, with the help of several physically competent
people, slide the barbecue out of the pallet towards the selected place. You can also use two sticks, two
wooden beams, or binding towers placed through the grill base (see picture) if necessary.
c) Adjust the position of the hearth using a level.
This is especially important in order to avoid
fat and juice from the grilled food overowing
to one side. Adjustable screw feet can also
be used (attached). Once the grill is level, you can
anchor it to the underlying pedestal (attached).
The original anchor kit comes with a lock,
but VULCANUS® can be moved at any time.
This solution is suitable, for example, for public
places and for security purposes.
2) Information and preparation before use
The VULCANUS® outdoor replace works best after the third use after hot oil has been absorbed
into the plate. This process helps prepare the food and protects the plate from corrosion.
During production, we treated the plate with vegetable oil that formed a protective layer. Therefore,
the surface may seem sticky to the touch.
For cooking, it is best to use oil with a higher smoke point, such as rened oils like sunower,
rapeseed, and corn oil. You can also use virgin olive oil, but it is not suitable for extra virgin quality.
If you want to get a nice brown to black color, we recommend using olive oil right on the rst treatment
of the plate.
Follow these points:
Wipe the plate clean with a damp cloth.
In the middle of the replace, put dry wood into a pyramid and use a re starter to heat up the
VULCANUS® grill for the rst time. Beech, oak or ash industrially dried wood burns well. Other
hardwoods can also be used.
Use a cloth or paper towel to wipe the plate with cooking oil. Repeat this procedure several times
until the grill has completely heated up (approx. 45 min), and ideally heat and apply oil for an additional
hour.
Let the re naturally burn out. The surface will absorb the heated oil and, after one or two uses,
discolor into dark brown or black. VULCANUS® is now ready for use.
The design is patent-protected and has EU certication for food.
The COR-TEN grill body is equipped with an accumulation core. The special shape and weight of
the core guarantee superior circulation of hot air, thermal stability, reduced wood consumption and
grill functionality even in the winter. The grease drainage system ensures fragrant and healthy food.
The ashtray simplies grill maintenance and many standard accessories enhance the cooking
possibilities.
3) During use
Once you have ignited the VULCANUS® re pit, wait 30-45 minutes before the plate is heated to
250-300 °C, which is the maximum cooking temperature. The warmest area of the plate is in the middle
of each side. Corner areas are suitable for more gentle grilling, such as sh, vegetables, cheeses or the like,
or for keeping food hot, ripening steaks or for a sauce pot. Weak wind and the distribution of wood in
the replace can aect the burning rate of individual parts of the plate. Once the hotplate begins to
warm up, clean it with a spatula to remove grease that has remained on the surface from previous use.
Then, pour new oil to the place where you want to cook and clean it with a cloth or paper towel.
During cooking, add oil to the plate as needed. To slow down the cooking process and deliver a smoky
avor to the food, put the ingredients on a hardwood logwood board and place it on the cooktop.
4) Fire extinction
The easiest way to extinguish the re is to let it burn out or place the lid on the plate. Do NOT pour water
into the re, as this may cause the accumulation core to crack. Also keep in mind that the VULCANUS®
outdoor grill can be very hot for several hours after use.
5) Cleaning the replace after grilling
Once the plate has cooled to an adequate temperature, clean the plate with a spatula, or a cloth or paper
towel, and then wipe it with oil again. This prevents corrosion from the surface and prepares it for future
use. Remove the ash from the replace. Remove the stainless steel grease trap. The stainless steel
bowl can also be washed in a dishwasher. Lift the inner ceramic dome from the center of the replace
and place the steel ash container on the shelf under it. Use a brush to clean the ash through the central
opening into the prepared steel container. Before you throw away the ashes, make sure they completely
cool down.
6) Maintenance of the replace and pedestal
The replace and stand are made of COR-TEN material, which is very easy to maintain. This special
material has been developed for shipbuilding and surface rust actually helps protect the steel from
deep corrosion. Therefore, VULCANUS® can be left outdoors all year round and the base and replace
will naturally get a ruby patina over time. Simply remove the ash, especially if you are not going to
use VULCANUS® for a long time. We also recommend using a cover (accessory) that reliably protects the
grill and furnace from rain, snow and falling leaves.
7) Plate maintenance
If you have not grilled for a long time, or if you have not treated the grill correctly according to the
instructions described in 2) and 5), rust may form on the plate as a result of low use or insucient oil
lubrication. The use of the lid (accessory) eliminates this. You can easily remove the rust with gentle
grinding and repeat the process described in 2) and 5). The more often VULCANUS® is used, the more
you protect the plate from corrosion, as the hot oil layer soaks in. You do not even need to worry about
miniscule dirt because all unwanted lth will be reliably destroyed by heat – which has been certied
and proven with laboratory testing.
8) Disclaimer - Safety Warning
Just like any other open re cooking appliance, VULCANUS® heats up and can be hot for a long time
after you stop adding fuel. All parts of the VULCANUS® grill (the plate, re pit and, to a lesser extent,
pedestal) may become hot during use. Take precautions to ensure that none of your friends or relatives
touches the grill while it is hot. VULCANUS® is designed only for burning dry wood and charcoal. We do
not recommend burning other materials or fuels. After use, make sure the ash from the VULCANUS®
grill has completely cooled before throwing it out.
9) Exclusion of liability
The buyer and the user are responsible for the correct and safe use of this product. The buyer and
user of the grill agree that neither VULCANUS® design s.r.o. nor its distributors (including suppliers
