Washer (#I)
Installation:
•
Locate the chimney opening on the top of the main barrel. From the
outside, secure the chimney stack to the top of the unit using three
screws, locking washers, and washers. The screw will fasten to the pre-
mounted nut on the inside of the unit.
NOTE: Adjust the chimney cap to affect the airflow inside the main
smoker. If cooking at low temperature, keep the cap more open.
Ensure the chimney cap allows for air to escape at all times.

Installation:
•
Unscrew the three screws along the outside of the hopper that secure
the hopper safety screen to the interior of the hopper. Remove the
safety screen, remove the heat tent and set aside. Re-install the
hopper safety screen. Note 4A.
•
Mount the power cord bracket to the backside of the hopper using
two washers, locking washers, and screws. Note 4B.
•
Secure the hopper lid onto the hopper using two washers, locking
washers, and screws. Note 4C.
IMPORTANT: Once installed, ensure the hopper lid opens and closes
to avoid any water or moisture from coming in contact with the
wood pellet fuel. Wood pellets exposed to moisture will expand in
size and lose their heating value.
5. CONNECTING THE TEMPERATURE PROBE WIRES
Installation:
•
On the back side of the hopper, connect the silver temperature probe
wires that extrude from the main barrel and the hopper. The spade
connectors from the body can be connected to the spade connectors
from the hopper in any order. Tuck the wire connections and excess
wire into the hopper through the rubber ring.

Questions and answers
can I check the resistance of the main Temp probe to see if it is good?
To check the resistance of the main temperature probe for Pit Boss model PBVPS1, you need to access the electrical components at the base of the unit. Locate the temperature probe wires and ensure the spade connectors are firmly and correctly connected to the control board. Then, use a multimeter to measure the resistance across the temperature probe connectors. The exact resistance value is not provided, but you are checking for continuity and expected resistance range. If the reading is abnormal or shows no continuity, the probe may be faulty.
