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.
