INITIAL FIRING INSTRUCTIONS Please read this manual carefully and follow it step by step before starting your grill for the first time and each time the grill runs out of pellets. 1.Remove the Porcelain Grills, Warming Rack, Grease Drain Pan and Heat Baffle from the interior of the grill.
SUBSEQUENT START-UP ATTENTION: If the grill fails to light or the fire in the Firepot goes out while cooking, it is vital to follow these steps when sufficient pellets are still in the Pellet Hopper. Failure to follow the steps may cause a hazardous “over-firing” of your grill due to an excess of unburned pellets in the Firepot.
OPERATING TIPS 1.Like all grills, the actual temperature of this grill and the cooking times will be affected by external temperature, humidity, wind conditions, quality of pellets, etc. 2.It is beneficial to shelter your grill from the wind. This will aid in temperature output, heat retention and heat recovery time when the lid is open.

Grease 1.With regular use your grill will accumulate grease on the Flue Lining, the Grease Drain Tube, the V-shaped Grease Drain and the Grease Drain Pan.
