Setup
When using the Petromax Atago for the first time, the extension-retraction mechanism
may be slightly stiff. Do not use excessive force to extend or retract the cylinders.
The Petromax Atago has a cleverly designed system that makes it ready for use in no time. Follow the
steps below to prepare the Atago for use.
• Grasp the handle in the centre.
• Carefully and gently pull the handle upwards to extend the inner cylinder and the three support
legs.
• Now that it is ready for use, carefully place the Petromax Atagoon a stable, heat-resistant and even
surface.
Preparation and initial operation
Do not use more than 30 briquettes at once. Do not use lighter fluid to avoid generating
too intensive heat.
The Petromax Atago will be ready for you to grill and cook on in a very short time. Only use solid grill
lighter. Thus, the ignition source can be controlled, and the ignition process is particularly quick due
to the chimney effect. Do not use liquid grill lighter to avoid a potential fire hazard from liquid fuel
leaking out of the Atago.
Follow these steps to prepare your Atago effectively and ensure that the charcoal briquettes burn properly:
Open the air-flow system completely to maximise air flow. To do this, slide the air-flow regulation lever
to the outside right.
Place the charcoal grate in the designated place. Never use the Petromax Atago without
the charcoal grate!
