FAQs

What is the primary function of the Petromax Atago?

The Petromax Atago is an all-in-one outdoor cooking tool that can function as a barbecue, stove, oven, and fire bowl.

How quickly can the Atago be set up?

Thanks to its intelligent folding mechanism, the Atago can be ready for use in approximately 2 seconds.

Does the Atago come with a Dutch Oven?

No, the Petromax Atago does not include a Dutch Oven. It is designed to be compatible with Petromax Dutch Ovens, which can be purchased separately.

What is the folded height of the Atago?

When folded, the Petromax Atago has a height of only 15 cm, making it very compact for transport and storage.

Can I use the Atago without a grill grate?

Yes, without the grilling grate, the Atago serves as a fire bowl. It can also be used as a stove in this configuration, for example, with a Petromax Percolator "Perkomax".

How does the low smoke feature work?

The double-walled construction creates a chamber for secondary combustion, which burns off smoke particles, leading to cleaner combustion and less visible smoke.

Is the Atago easy to clean?

Yes, after cooling, components can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The cast iron grate requires specific care to maintain its seasoning and prevent rust.

Troubleshooting

Unit is difficult to fold or unfold.

Ensure there are no obstructions or debris in the folding mechanism. Check that the unit is fully opened or closed before attempting to fold or unfold. Gentle wiggling may help release stiff joints.

Grill grate seems uneven or unstable.

Confirm that the Atago is on a level surface and fully unfolded. Ensure the grill grate is seated correctly on its support points.

Excessive smoke during use.

While designed for low smoke, using very wet wood can increase smoke. Ensure adequate airflow by not overpacking the fuel. Check that the secondary combustion holes are not blocked.

Rust spots on the cast iron grate.

This is normal for cast iron if not properly cared for. Clean the rust spots with a steel wool pad, re-season the grate with cooking oil, and ensure it is thoroughly dried and lightly oiled after each use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely robust and durable construction.
  • Highly versatile, adapting to multiple cooking needs.
  • Compact and portable design for easy transport.
  • Efficient fuel use due to low smoke and clean combustion.
  • Quick setup and takedown process.

Cons

  • Requires separate purchase of accessories (e.g., Dutch Oven, Perkomax) to utilize all functions.
  • Cast iron grate may require specific care to prevent rust.
  • Initial cost may be higher due to its multi-functional nature and robust build.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Petromax Atago features an intuitive folding mechanism. To set it up, simply lift the handles and unfold the unit until it locks into place. This process typically takes only a couple of seconds. To fold it down for storage or transport, reverse the process by carefully unfolding the unit until it collapses to its compact form.

Compatibility: The Atago is designed to work with various heat sources, including charcoal briquettes and firewood. It is compatible with other Petromax products such as the Dutch Oven (for oven functionality) and the "Perkomax" coffee maker (for stove functionality). The included grilling grate is essential for barbecue use.

Care: To maintain the Atago, clean the components after each use once they have cooled down. The cast iron grate should be seasoned and maintained like any other cast iron cookware to prevent rust and ensure longevity. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the enamel. Store in a dry place to prevent moisture buildup.
