Rotisserie Assembly Installation Procedure cont’d
FOR INSTALLATION USING NATURAL GAS
WARNING: Installing the Outdoor Cooking Centre for use with Natural Gas should only be done
by authorised persons and in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions, local
gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, AS 5601-2004 - Gas Installations and any other
statutory regulations.
Additional Parts Supplied
- Natural Gas Injectors & bypass screws already fitted/set by the manufacturer.
- No longer than 300mm Stainless Steel Hose, 10mm I.D, ½” BSP Male to 3/8” SAE Female.
- NG Regulator Bromic Oara 98OL (AGA#5862).
1. Place a block onto each side of the enclosure base to raise the height of the Outdoor Cooking Centre. With
the help of another person, slowly lower the appliance onto the blocks.
2. Feed the end of the 300mm Stainless Steel hose with the 3/8” SAE fitting up through the small hole in the
base of the construction.
3. Secure the 3/8” SAE fitting to the inlet connection of the manifold and tighten with a spanner. Be careful
not to over-tighten and damage the connection.
Caution: The Stainless Steel hose should not be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation
once fitted to the Outdoor Cooking Centre.
4. Apply an AGA approved thread sealant to the ½”BSP external thread of the hose fitting. Connect the ½”
BSP Male end of the Stainless Steel hose to one end of the regulator. Tighten the connection with a spanner.
5. The other end of the regulator should be connected to the main gas line with rigid pipe as specified in
AS5601 table 3.1. For positioning the rigid pipe, note that the flexible Stainless Steel hose will drop
approximately 200-300mm below the inlet connection.
6. Check the gas pressure at the test point as stated below and follow the instructions on Page 12 to perform
a Gas Leak Test on all gas connections.
7. Once you are sure there are no leaks in the gas system, with assistance, remove the blocks from the base of
the enclosure and slowly lower the Outdoor Cooking Centre into place.
Note: If the hose or regulator becomes damaged, replace it with the same item by contacting customer service
& spare parts.
CHECKING THE GAS PRESSURE
1. Turn off the gas supply.
2. Connect the pressure gauge to the pressure test point. This can be done by either removing the test point
screw on the NG regulator or by removing one of the burners and measuring the test point pressure at the
injector. Follow instructions on Page 21 to remove the burner (if needed).
3. Once the gauge is in position, turn the gas supply on.
4. Ignite the burner furthest away from the gauge and turn the knob to the “HIGH” position. Check that the
reading measures 1.00kPa for Natural Gas. If not, adjust the regulator to obtain the stated pressure.
5. Once the pressure is set, switch off the burner, turn off the gas supply, and disconnect the pressure gauge.
6. Ensure the Outdoor Cooking Centre is returned to its normal operating state. Replace the screw in the NG
regulator, or replace the burner if it has been removed. Perform a gas leak check on all gas connections to
make sure there are no gas leaks at the test point or at any point in the connection to the inlet manifold.
Note to Installer
Before Leaving - Check all connections for gas leaks with soap and water. DO NOT use a naked flame for
detecting leaks. Ignite all burners both individually and concurrently to ensure correct operation of gas valves,
burners and ignition. Turn gas taps to low flame position and observe stability of the flame for each burner
individually and concurrently.
If the flame appears abnormal or fails to remain alight, you will need to adjust the by-pass setting. Remove the
six control knobs for the main burners. Place a small slotted jewellers/precision screwdriver through the shaft of
the gas valve. Turn the by-pass screw anti-clockwise until the burner stays alight and the flame appears normal
with very little or no yellow tipping.
When satisfied with the Outdoor Cooking Centre, please instruct the user on the correct method of operation.
In case the appliance fails to operate correctly after all checks have been carried out, refer to the authorised
service provider in your area.
1. Remove all components from the carton.
2. Slide a Holding Fork onto each end of the Rotisserie Spit. Adjust spacing between Holding Fork to
accommodate your food, then tighten the Thumbscrews to keep the Holding Forks in position. Slide the
Bushing Collar onto the threaded end of the Spit. Do not tighten the Bushing Collar Thumbscrew until the
Rotisserie is placed into your Outdoor Cooking Centre. Slide the balance block onto the threaded end of the
Spit. Last, screw the Handle and balance block onto the threaded end of Rotisserie Spit as shown.
3. Install the AC (alternating current) Rotisserie
Motor onto the Motor Bracket as shown right.
Be sure the Motor attaches to the Bracket with
the electrical cord down. This installation
ensures that once the Spit is inserted into the
Motor it will also rest securely into the slot of
your burner housing.
4. Insert the assembled Rotisserie into the Motor as shown below. The Motor should be on the right side of
your Outdoor Cooking Centre and the Handle on the left side. Place the Bushing collar into the slot
opening on the left side of your burner housing, then tighten the Bushing Collar Thumbscrew. The Bushing
Collar will stabilize the Rotisserie during the cooking process and the Bushing collar allows the Rotisserie
Spit to turn smoothly. Plug the Rotisserie into an outlet and turn on to test.
