INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

READ THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE FRONT OF THE BARBECUE

This BBQ is designed and approved for outdoor use only.

Be mindful of the location of the installation of the BBQ.

If you are using the roasting hood it is better that the prevailing wind blows into the front of the BBQ during cooking.

NOTE: Strong winds blowing into the back or across the back of the hood whilst cooking with the hood closed can cause overheating of the BBQ. The Roasting Hood is designed so that Hot air from inside the Roasting Hood is released through the vent in the top of the Roasting Hood when it is shut while roasting. Strong winds can prevent the hot air escaping out of this vent and may even in some cases push the hot air down and out the front of the base of the BBQ Fascia where the cold fresh air is designed to enter the BBQ Body.

This choice of installation can cause the  front of the BBQ to get unusually hot and can damage the ignition system and control valves.

Be sensible about the location of your BBQ. The cabinet must be located on a solid and level surface that can safely support the BBQ. The Cabinet Trolley is fitted with lockable Stainless Steel Castors, when you have your BBQ installed into position, the brakes on the Castors must be locked to avoid the Cabinet Trolley from moving during use.

Do not locate the BBQ near combustible materials or surfaces, either above or around the BBQ such as overhanging trees, bushes or flammable liquids and the like.

Do not obstruct any of the air ventilation openings on the front of the BBQ

WARNING

There must be no naked flames in the area when connecting the BBQ to a gas supply.

•  Attach the regulator to the gas cylinder by tightening the wing nut on the regulator firmly by hand
  

• Once connected, leak test the connections by brushing a solution of soapy water around the joints and gas cylinder valve.
  NOTE: You must have the control knobs in the off position and have the gas supply on at the cylinder valve to test for leaks
  If bubbles appear around the connections, you have a leak
  

Photo of what a typical leak looks like. If bubbles appear around the connections, you have a leak.
GAS INSTALLATION AND LEAK TEST PROCEDURE
Turn off the gas supply and tighten or re-seal the connection.

Leak test the connections again

Photo of what a good connection looks like i.e. no bubbles.

If leaks are still present do not use the BBQ, contact the place of purchase or your local dealer.

The R Class Cabinet Trolley has been designed so as the Gas Cylinder can be stored securely inside the Cabinet. There is a securing chain attached inside the right hand Cabinet Doors and a manual lighting match holder is also attached to the chain.

GAS INSTALLATION

Check that the hose is not kinked or under tension.

Apart from the connection point the hose must not be touching any part of the BBQ or Wok burner where it may get hot and be damaged. For storage, cylinder exchange or refilling, disconnect the hose at the cylinder only.

Do not disconnect the hose from the appliance.
Do not attempt to open or adjust the regulator, if you think it is not working properly consult your local dealer.

FOR PERMANENT CONNECTIONS to natural gas or a fixed propane supply, an authorised person, in accordance with these instructions, local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, the AGA installation code AS5601 and any other relevant statutory regulations, must be employed.

NOTE: The installer must test the BBQ when the installation is completed. Before leaving the installer must make sure the appliance operates correctly and is safe for the operator to use. The gas inlet connection must have a thread in accordance with AS ISO 7.1 or AS 1722.2.

For connection to a natural gas bayonet fitting, a gas regulator must be fitted at the inlet of the appliance, and an approved 10mm, class A, natural gas hose (no longer than 2 meters), going from the gas regulator to the bayonet point, complying with AS1869 must be used.

Where a mobile appliance is to be connected to a fixed gas supply via a flexible hose connection the restraining cord supplied must be fixed to the appliance and the wall/floor within 50mm of each connection point.

The length of the restraining cord shall not exceed 80% of the length of the hose as it is designed to prevent stress on the hose assembly when the appliance is moved out of its normal operating position.

It is recommended that an isolation valve and union be fitted before the BBQ; refer AS5601/ AG601 for correct pipe sizing to ensure adequate gas is supplied to the appliance. For natural gas check the pressure of the regulator and adjust it if necessary to the pressure shown on the data plate.

TAKE CARE OF THE APPLIANCE

1. Before each use remove any accumulated grease and other cooking residue. Fat/ grease fires are not covered by warranty.
2. Your BBQ should be cleaned regularly with hot soapy water and dried afterwards. Do not use steel wool as it will leave steel deposits on the surface of which can cause rust. Scotch Bright pads can be used but will generally leave scratch marks where you have rubbed. Only use these on stubborn un-washable deposits.
3.  To remove rust marks, we recommend Eagle One NEVER DULL wadding polish. To prevent rust marks, polish the BBQ with stainless steel polish regularly. Hint, rub the BBQ over with a cloth after each use when the BBQ is still hot and the grease on the BBQ will wipe off easy and make it easy to look after as it leaves a slight cover of grease on the stainless steel which impedes the salt air from settling in the pours of the stainless steel surface.
4. Grease or oil the shafts of the gas control valves where they enter the alloy housing every 3 months to avoid them ceasing up. If they become hard to turn or if you smell gas, get the BBQ serviced.
5. Periodically check the leads on the ignitions for any cracks that are connected to the probes and buttons.
6. Do not attempt to dismantle control valves or the regulator.
7. Periodically remove the burners and scrub them with soapy water and a wire brush. Make sure the ports are clear from obstructions, unscrew the air mixture cap and gauze from the throat of the burner periodically and brush away any dust, spider webs or insect nests that may have built up,replace them and screw them back on. When replaced turn each burner on and check that the flame pattern is good, you can adjust the air mixture by turning the cap on the end of the burner throat open or closed. You want a blue flame with a yellow tip.
8. Check hose and regulator regularly and replace if damaged.
9. It is recommended that the hose and regulator be replaced every 5 years.
10. If you cannot operate the BBQ correctly turn it off. Do not continue to use it. Take it back to the place of purchase or local dealer and get them to test and repair it.
11.  Stainless Steel BBQs can be affected by high temperatures of which can cause discoloration on the BBQ frame.
12. Check and tighten nuts and bolts on the BBQ regularly.
13. A canvas cover will help keep your BBQ protected from weather. Make sure the BBQ is dry before putting the cover on or corrosion may occur. Coastal climates are particularly vulnerable to this.
14. Check all connections for gas soundness.

WARNING

Servicing must only be carried out by authorized personnel.

This appliance must not be modified. Check gas cylinder regularly for test date status.

We recommend service of this appliance to be done by an authorized person every two year.
