Assembly Instructions

General

This barbecue can be mounted onto a mobile trolley.

The Trolley is packed in a separate carton. Please refer to the Trolley instruction booklet for assembly of

the trolley, and barbecue mounting.

Once the barbecue had been properly installed, please check the following:

1. Hood is fully engaged into the four slots in the barbecue’s body.

2. All burners are in place correctly and secure

by an ‘R’ clip:

3. Vaporizers are installed individually on the steps above burners, but under the Grill (not required

under the Plate). They are inserted into the positioning slots like this:

4. Cooking surfaces (Grill and Plate) are clean, and installed over the burners and vaporizers.

Using Your Barbecue:

Before you light the Barbecue

Perform the following checks:

•Make sure all connections are tight, and leak-tested. Gas regulators fitted with a hand-tightened wheel

must be checked to ensure they are secured.

•Check that all control knobs are in the ‘Off’ position, and that gas supply is turned off.

•Ensure that the Hood on the barbecue, and the Lid on the side-burner are open. If lids are closed there

is a risk of gas accumulating inside, and creating a dangerous situation.

•The hose and regulator supplied with this barbecue must be used at all times whilst operating this

barbecue. Inspect the hose and regulator regularly for cracks or any sign of damage. If there is

excessive abrasion or wear, replace only with a genuine BeefEater regulator.

•The bottom panel of the Barbecue is clean and free of any fat or other food residue.

Grease Collecting Pan

The grease Collecting Pan is located on 2 brackets below the BBQ’s bottom panel, on the left-hand-side.

Make sure the pan is always in its place when operating the barbecue, to avoid fat dripping directly into

the trolley. Make sure the grease pan is emptied and cleaned regularly.

Also ensure the grease is cleaned off the bottom of the Barbecue before each use.

Lighting the Barbecue

•Ensure the appliance is placed on a flat, level, non-combustible surface.

•Ensure the regulator is connected to the LPG cylinder (See Regulator Connection page 4.), and the

hose is not subject to any twisting, and is not close to hot surfaces.

•Verify all joints are spanner tight and check for leaks after turning on gas supply. See correct

procedure on page 4.

•Ensure all knobs are in the ‘Off’ position.

•Ensure vaporizers, cooking plate and grill are in place.

•Open Gas Cylinder valve.

Note:

The barbecue is fitted with a safety feature that prevents the burners from being accidentally turned on.

You must push the knob inwards to disengage the lock, and only then start turning it.

Light each burner by following this procedure:

-Read all instructions before lighting.

-Open Hood before lighting.

-Push in and turn Right-Hand-Side knob counter-clockwise to ‘High’.

-If ignition does not occur, return to ‘Off’ and repeat after 5 minutes.

Check for a clear blue flame with just a tip of yellow.

Once the right-hand-side burner is alight, light each successive burner from right to left.

Excess yellow tipping means the combustion is not right, if that is observed, turn the Barbecue

burners off, and refer to troubleshooting at the end of this manual.

Do not use more than 2 burners on ‘High’ with the hood closed.

If the burner does not light

Keep the control knob pushed, and return the knob in the clockwise direction to the ‘Off’ position. Wait 5

minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure steps 1 – 4 above again.

If after a few attempts you still can not light the burners, contact your retailer before proceeding.

Manual Lighting

Press and turn the right hand control knob anti-clockwise to the ‘High’ position, then, using a long match,

light the right hand burner immediately through the cooking grill and vaporizer.

Check for proper burner operation

Following operating instructions light each burner and check for a clear blue flame with just a tip of yellow.

Excess yellow tipping can be adjusted using the screw on the side of the burner. If you are unable to

achieve correct operation, consult your dealer.

Preparing the Plate and Grill:

Your barbecue has heavy duty enamelled Cast Iron plate and grill. Enamel is a hard, non-rusting surface

which will ensure the long life of your cooking surface.

The plate and grill are ready to use, but it is recommended to wash them with warm soapy water and a

soft cloth, and rinse before use.

To ensure the longevity of the enamel surface on the Cast Iron plate and grill it is strongly advised to

avoid impact with other metal parts and sharp utensils.

To turn off a burner

Simply turn the knob (without pushing) clockwise to the ‘Off’ position.

After Use

It is a good idea to leave the barbecue on for about 10 minutes after you have finished cooking. This helps

to burn away any excess food residues and oil, and makes cleaning easier.

1. Be sure to turn off all control knobs and the gas supply.

2. Allow the barbecue to cool.

3. Clean the drip tray and cooking surfaces. Clean any food spills from the side burner, if one is

installed.

4. Lower the hood and side burner lid.

The gas cylinder supply valve must be turned off when the appliance is not in use.

Direct Cooking Method

Commonly used for traditional barbecuing. Place food over the lit grill section. Some flaring may occur, so

care must be taken while cooking. Check inside the roasting hood regularly. The direct cooking method is

recommended for steaks, chops, sausages, and hamburgers.

Indirect Cooking

Indirect cooking involves little or no heat directly underneath the food. Instead, the food is placed on the

grill, the burners below the food are turned off or Low, and burners on either side are used. The hood is

closed to trap heat and moisture. With this method, heat circulates around the food, cooking by

convection. By trapping the vapour inside your “outdoor oven”, the cooking vapour will fall back on the

food on all sides, not just from underneath. The food cooks more evenly, and stays moist in the process.

Indirect cooking is similar to using a conventional oven and is recommended for rotisserie cooking, roasts,

poultry, casseroles, vegetables and whole fish.

When cooking a roast, it is a good idea to use a roast holder and baking dish. Always use a baking dish

with a depth greater than 35mm. Shallower trays may fill quickly and overflow, which may cause a fat

fire.

Controlling the Burners

The control knob can now be turned to the desired heat setting, Low, High or anywhere in between. The

control knob does not need to be pushed in while selecting the heat setting.

Storing Your Barbecue

When storing barbecue for extended periods, be certain all controls and cylinder valves are turned off. If

storing the barbecue indoors remove gas cylinder and store the cylinder in a ventilated area outdoors. Gas

cylinders must be stored outdoors, out of reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or

any other enclosed area.

The barbecue should be covered when not in use. Eg with a polyester or vinyl barbecue cover.
