MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE FIRE
Before cleaning the fire components, ensure the fire has completely cooled down.
The cooking grill, warming rack and wood basket are removable to aid cleaning. Additionally, the drip tray can be removed for emptying and
cleaning.
Use steel wool or a light grade pot scrub to scrub excess soot off the grill racks. Then use vinegar and a soft microfiber cloth to clean the
cooking fat off the components. Add a little mineral oil to the cloth if you want to add a bit of polish. Standard kitchen cleaning solutions can
also be used. Use a scrubbing brush for fat that has dried on.
The bricks can be cleaned by wetting them, before spraying with a foaming bathroom spray, or by scrubbing with a stiff brush.
MAINTAINING THE WHEEL, WIRES AND SHAFT
The shaft mechanism should be lubricated regularly. The shaft is connected to the firebox via a bush at the back, and a bush at the front
which is accessible from behind the wheel face plate. Warmington recommends using a non
-
flammable lubricant (eg. CRC Brakleen NF).
Note: do not use aerosol lubricants when the appliance is hot and/or running.
If necessary, the wires can be adjusted by loosening the wire cams with Allen key (size 5, for M6 bolt). Make sure the grill is resting on the
bricks before loosening the cams. The cams can be slid along the shaft. The location of the cams will affect how the wire coils.
For the inbuilt model, the cams sit close to the middle of the shaft (as pictured below). For the BBQ and pit fire models, the cams sit close
to the end of the shaft. For the inbuilt version, ideal cam location is such that when the grill is fully raised the wires are close to the centre
point inline with the wire connection brackets on the grill. For the BBQ and pit fire versions, ideal cam location is such that the wire end is
directly above the grill wire connection point when the grill is fully raised.
The wire and cams are pre
-
set in the Warmington factory. However, should the shaft need to be taken out, or should things move during
freight, follow this guide on wire and cam placement.
The cams should sit an equal distance away from the midline over the grill connection. The cams are mirrored about the midline. There
are two through cut holes on the face of each cam which should face inwards towards the centre of the fire. The cams should also be
rotationally opposed– there is a slot cut through each cam. These should be facing in opposite directions (towards the sides of the
firebox).
When the grill is just above the base of the fire (distance from bottom of drip tray to top surface of bricks should be approx. 20mm), there
should be about 1 coil of wire per cam on the shaft. In its highest position, there should be about 4 to 5 coils of wire per cam (coiled
around the shaft). See the next page for a schematic of the wire setup.
There is a stopper bracket on each side of the frame to stop the grill from raising too high. These are slotted and are adjustable by
loosening the cap screw and sliding them up and down to suit. It is recommended to set the wire and cams, then raise the grill up to its
highest position such that the wires leaving the shaft is almost horizontal as they lead down to the roller wheels on each side of the frame.
Then adjust the stoppers to stop the grill from going any further than this position.
