Aussie 330 Griddle User Manual


 
OPERATION
When the burner is lit the control setting may be selected. With the lid closed the Spitfire will quickly
reach cooking temperatures (5 minutes).
WITH THE CONTROL VALVES AT HIGH AND THE LID CLOSED FOR EXTENDED
PERIODS DAMAGE MAY BE CAUSED TO THE SPITFIRE. HIGH GAS SETTINGS ARE
ONLY RECOMMENDED FOR A SHORT PRE-HEAT / CLEANING PERIOD OR FOR
BARBEQUING WITH THE LID OPEN.
After cooking turn the grill off at the LPG source. Once the burner has extinguished turn the Control
Regulator to the LOCK-OFF position. This will de-pressurize the fuel line. This may be accomplished by
closing a solenoid if your system is equipped.
COOKING
The removable drip tray must be installed prior to cooking. DO NOT ALLOW GREASE TO
BUILD-UP IN THE GREASE TRAY OR IN THE BASE OF THE SPITFIRE.
The drip tray can be placed in or removed from the back of the Spitfire 330.
The stainless rod grill sections or the optional “Aussie Style” Griddle Pan can be sprayed or covered with
cooking oil to prevent food from sticking. Accumulated grease will burn off if the cooking plates are
turned over. For a thorough clean, a bbq brush or oven cleaner.
IMPORTANT NOTE
: BARBECUES GET HOT AND WILL SPLASH AND LEAK
GREASE. FOR SAFETY REASONS IT IS THEREFORE ADVISABLE TO MOUNT THE UNIT
OUTBOARD.
GENERAL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Clean grease from the drip tray of the Spitfire after each use
The burner orifice can be removed for thorough cleaning or cleaned in place with hot water and a
bronze wire brush, see section “ The Burners”.
Stainless Spitfire top lid and main body will discolor with the heat. This is chromium reacting with
the heat and the oxygen to create chromium oxide, the component of stainless steel that gives it
corrosion resistance. While all quality stainless will react this way with heat, it should not be
confused with corrosion. The use of stainless steel polish.
The Top Lid will loosen where it attaches to the Main Body. To tighten use two 7/16” wrenches.
Back off the outer acorn nut and tighten the inner hex nut. Re-tighten the acorn nut.
