Important Instructions

Read the following instructions carefully before first use to ensure safe and long-lasting use of the product. These instructions are in addition to the information printed on the packaging that comes with your product. There you will find more detailed information on the description of the individual parts. These instructions for use will help you to keep your Petromax product for a long time.
Pay particular attention to the safety instructions and instructions for use. Keep these instructions for future reference. To avoid possible damage, read and follow the instructions.

Before you use the Coal Shovel

Check that the delivery is complete and undamaged. If a part is missing or defective, please contact your retailer. Complaints regarding damage or missing parts after assembly has been completed or started will not be accepted.

Before first use

Remove the packaging material. Check the product for completeness.

• Children can get caught in the packaging film while playing and suffocate in it.
• Do not let children play with the packaging film.
• Make sure that children do not put small assembly parts in their mouths. They could swallow the parts and choke on them.

The steel body of your coal shovel is coated with a black high-heat lacquer at the factory. This varnish may partially burn during the first few uses and additional smoke and odours may develop. At high heat and e.g. stoking the fire with metal objects, the varnish will peel off over time. Also, with use, the material may warp due to exposure to high heat. These are not defects of the product and the function of the coal shovel is not affected in any way.

Intended use

The Petromax coal shovel is the practical helper for filling barbecue and fireplaces. The shovel can also be used for cleaning, as the insertable sieve allows unburnt coals or briquettes to be easily separated from the ash and reused.
The Petromax coal shovel is not suitable for food. Furthermore, it must not be left in the barbecue or coals lit on it. It must not be used without fireproof gloves as the handle gets very hot.
Only use the product as described in the instructions for use. Any other use is considered improper and may result in damage to property or even personal injury.
We accept no liability for damage caused by improper use.

Instructions for safety and use

• Only use the Petromax Coal Shovel outdoors or in a fireplace with a properly installed smoke outlet.
• There is an acute risk of fire and suffocation! Have a fire extinguisher ready when using it.
• Let the coal or briquettes cool down outside. Use a coal bucket or let the coal cool in the fireplace. Never store the coal or briquettes indoors, even if they appear to be almost cool.
• There is a danger of suffocation! Find out about the applicable fire safety regulations and comply with them. When lighting a fire in nature, always be considerate of flora and fauna and nature reserves.
• When building a fireplace, keep a safe distance from flammable and heat-sensitive objects and materials.
• Only use commercially available, solid firelighters, such as the Petromax fire kit, to light the fire and be sure to follow the instructions on the packaging.
• All parts of the Petromax Coal Shovel become very hot during use. Protect your hands with heat-resistant gloves or potholders if you have to touch the hot Coal Shovel.
• The steel body of the Coal Shovel is coated with a factory-made black high-heat lacquer.
• This burns partly during the first few uses and may cause additional smoke and odours.
• Be careful when adding fuel to your fireplace and always protect your hands with fireproof gloves!
• Always observe the maximum temperature of 750°C for the Coal Shovel. Therefore, only clean the fireplace when the coal or briquettes have cooled down, e.g. on the next day.
• Always have a suitable fire extinguishing agent (e.g. a bucket of sand, fire blanket, fire extinguisher) ready in case of emergency.
• Let the charcoal or briquettes cool down slowly after use. Never extinguish the fire or embers with cold water! This can damage the material of your grill.
• Only remove the ash and the coals or briquettes from your fireplace when it has cooled down completely and never use water to extinguish glowing coals. Then dispose of the ashes properly.
• Never put hot ash into the household waste! Never leave the fireplace unattended during use. Always watch over children and animals.
• The Coal Shovel is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the product by a person responsible for their safety.

Operation/ Workplace/ Transport

• Always observe the applicable national and international safety, health and work regulations.
• Ensure safe and damage-free transport, store the Coal Shovel safely and frost-free and not in places with high humidity, remove the packaging and wipe off any dust that may have formed.
• The product may only be used if no defect was found during the inspection. If a part is defective, it is essential to replace it before the next use.
• The immediate environment must be free of highly flammable or explosive substances.
• Always work with caution and only when in good condition: fatigue, illness, alcohol consumption, medication and drug influence are irresponsible as you can no longer use the product safely.
• Be considerate of your neighbours so that they are not irritated by the smell or smoke, or their property put at risk.

Care and storage

You should take proper care of your coal Shovel to use it for a long time. The aim is to prevent rust from forming or the Coal ssovel from deforming. To do this, you should follow a few basic rules:

• Do not remove ash and coals or briquettes until they have cooled down, as steel can expand evenly at high heat and unnecessary deformation could occur.
• At high heat, the Choal shovel may warp (also possible only after cooling). This is not a defect of the product.
• Let your fireplace cool down well after use and dispose of the ash, coals or briquettes properly.
• Never extinguish the fire with water as this could damage your fireplace.
• Ash is hygroscopic (binds humidity) and can cause rust. Therefore, remove the ash after using the Coal Shovel and then sweep or wipe it thoroughly. Careful use prevents rust and ensures that you will enjoy the Coal Shovel for a long time.
• Clear water with dishwashing liquid and a soft sponge or cotton cloth are sufficient for thorough cleaning. Do not use metal sponges as they can damage the coating.
• In addition, only use suitable cleaning and preserving agents such as Petromax Bio Cleaner for soot and fire traces.
• Store your Coal Shovel in a dry place. Never store when wet!
• Disassembly of the Coal Shovel is not recommended.
