INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Assembling the product

ATTENTION!

• It is important that assembly is carried out by 2 people, otherwise the product may fall over and be damaged. Especially in the first 10 steps, the product is still very unstable and someone is needed to hold the parts while the other one screws them down. Please allow approx. 60 minutes assembly time.
• The different screws and the 4 legs look similar but are not interchangeable. Therefore, check at each step that you have grabbed the right screw and leg before attaching them. The screws are identified by a letter and the legs by a number. We recommend taking stock of them all at the beginning and laying them out ready to avoid mix-ups.

Note
For assembly, you will need the following tools:

• 1 crosshead screwdriver
• 1 adjustable wrench

1. Install the feet (6) onto the right legs (1 & 2). To differenciate the legs, note that the left legs have one more hole compared to the right legs.
2. Assemble the bottom shelf (3) to the right legs (1 & 2) with 2 bolts (A).
3. Assemble the left legs (4 & 5) to the bottom shelf (3) with 2 bolts (A).
4. Slide the wheel axle (8) through the extra hole on the left legs (4 & 5). Attach the washer (E) and the wheels (7) on the axle from both sides. Secure the wheels with 2 split pins (D).

Regulating the temperature
Raising the temperature:

• Turn the rotating handle (22) upward to raise the coal grate higher.
• Open the stack (23) and the air vent (15) to let oxygen in so the coals will burn more.

Lowering the temperature:

• Turn the crank (22) down to lower the coal grate.
• Close the stack (23) and the air vent (15) so that the coals burn less.

Note
If the lid of the stack does not close completely, you can cut the spring shorter so it puts less pressure on the lid.
