CHECK PERFORMANCE OF
BURNERS PRIOR TO INSTALLING
BARBECUE PLATE COMPONENTRY.
DO NOT SMOKE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO
IGNITE BARBECUE.
NEVER USE VOLCANIC ROCK,
HEAT BEADS OR OTHER MATERIAL
ON FLAME TAMER.
ALWAYS USE PROTECTIVE
GLOVES WHEN HANDLING HOT
COMPONENTS.
!
1.
With burner controls in
‘OFF’
position, open the gas
cylinder valve or connect to gas supply.
2.
Upon first assembly the gas lines and burners will be
full of air. In order for the burners to light properly
the lines must fill with gas. It may require several
attempts at lighting the burners before you are
successful.
3.
Push the igniter button and check for sparking at the
stainless steel gas collector, located adjacent to each
burner.
4.
If a spark is not evident at the gas collector, check that
the ignition lead is firmly attached to the spark plug.
5.
With sparking established at collector box, turn the
burner control to
‘HI’
to establish a flame on the burner.
6.
Push and turn the required burner control as required
in an anti-clockwise direction to the
‘HI’
position.
Cross lighting channels inside the barbecue body
enables the flame to transfer across to the centre and
opposite side burners to ignite them.
7.
If any burners fail to light after several attempts, turn
off gas supply at source.
Wait until burners cool and inspect for obstructions to gas
flow.

instructions (page 17)

Before placing the cooking components into your barbecue
body, ensure that the spark electrode tip is properly positioned
within each gas collector box
(a wide stainless steel mechanism
found at the front between each set of burners)
. The easiest way
to ensure this is to perform the following electrode check:
1.
Be sure all control knobs are set to
‘OFF’
. Open the
barbecue hood. NEVER put your face inside the
barbecue body.
2.
Press igniter cap and look down at the gas collector
box. If a spark is present the electrode tips are properly
positioned.
3.
If no spark is seen, then the spark gap shown below
needs to be adjusted as follows:
•
Using an adjustable wrench, loosen the inside nut just
until the gas collector box can be manoeuvred and
turned upward.
The gap between the spark electrode tip and spark
receiver should be approximately 5 mm.
•
If the gap is wider the 5 mm use a pair of long nose
pliers and gently squeeze the gas collector box until
the gap is correct.
•
Return the gas collector box to its original horizontal
position, secure the inside nut and try the electrode
check again.
MAIN BURNER ELECTRODE CHECK
1.
Remove the igniter cap located on the barbecue control
panel.
2.
Place the supplied AA battery into the igniter slot. Be
sure to place the positive pole facing toward you.
3.
Place the cap and
spring over the
AA battery
then tighten
the igniter cap
onto the
b a r b e c u e
control panel.
IGNITER BATTERY INSTALLATION
When you have finished assembling your barbecue we
strongly urge that all pattern-head thumb screws be
tightened, either with the supplied tightening tool or a #2
Phillips-head screwdriver.

IMPORTANT: Before use of this barbecue, ensure that all
protective film has been removed. Once removed, clean all
surfaces with a ‘stainless steel cleaner’ or a hot detergent
solution to remove traces of adhesive or machine oils.
