OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Removing divider panel from grill

1. Remove four grates (T) in lid and firebox assembly (B).

3. Remove divider panel (Y) from firebox assembly (B). Return grates and warming rack to their original positions.
   

NOTE: When placing the divider panel into the firebox assembly (B), please make sure the bottom of the divider fits between the support brackets located on the front and back sides of the firebox.

• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD. Burning charcoal inside can kill you. It gives off carbon monoxide, which has no odor. NEVER burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles or tents.

This grill has an adjustable charcoal tray. By turning the crank handle, the charcoal tray can be raised or lowered to desired height. This allows for different heat settings depending on the food you are cooking and the temperature at which you want to cook. It also allows easy cleaning of the interior of the firebox after the unit has cooled down completely. It is not recommended to raise a fully loaded charcoal tray higher than the middle height setting.

NOTE: The grate is coated with porcelain which is a fragile coating. Handle with care to avoid damage. DO NOT cool the grate in cold water while it is still hot or the coating may crack. Let the grate cool off by itself.

Charcoal Lighting Instructions

• Open grill top.
• Remove cooking grates.
• Adjust the preffered charcoal tray(s) to the center position, and place one even row of charcoal briquettes in the tray.
• Make sure that charcoal does not go above the top of the tray.
• Light briquettes.
• Move charcoal tray(s) to the bottom position.
• With the top open, allow the briquettes to fully ignite (to the point where there is no further flame).
• Once the briquettes are lit, put the grates back in the grill using heat resistant gloves.
• Adjust charcoal tray as required to achieve the proper temperature.

Adjusting Temperature

• For maximum heat/temperature, open both side air vents located on the side of the main body as required. To reduce the heat/temperature, close the air vents on the side of the main body.

NOTE: The temperature should not go above 500ºF(260°C). If the temperature goes above 500ºF (260°C), you should open the lid and allow the briquettes to cool. The proper cooking temperature should not exceed 500ºF (260°C).

Seasoning Unit

1. Before your first cooking you should season the unit to enhance the cooking and to provide better overall durability. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart metallic flavors to foods.
2. Remove all retail hangtags that are on the unit, making sure NOT to remove safety markings from the unit.
3. Place one even row of charcoal briquettes in both charcoal trays. Make sure that charcoal does not go above the top of the trays.
4. Coat interior surfaces with vegetable cooking oil.
5. Light briquettes and set charcoal tray at medium height by cranking the crank handle.
6. Sustain burn for about two hours with lid closed and all dampers to 1/4 of the way open. Allow the unit to cool down properly.
7. Once this is completed, the unit is ready for use.

Rust can appear on the inside of your grill. Maintaining a light coating of vegetable oil on interior surfaces will aid in the protection of your grill. Exterior surfaces of the grill may need occasional touch up. We recommend the use of commercially available black high temperature spray paint. NEVER PAINT THE INTERIOR OF THE UNIT!

Operating The Front Door, Dampers, And Smoke Stack

These metal parts could be very hot while grilling. Always operate these parts while wearing a heat-resistant glove.

1. To open the door, lift the door slighty and pull.
2. To close the door, lift the door slightly and push the door to the door frame catch.
3. To adjust the side dampers, pull or push damper handle until desired air flow is achieved.
4. To adjust the smoke stack, move the smoke stack adjustment handle away from the smoke stack and raise or lower the adjustment handle until the desired air flow is achieved.

Grilling

Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for grilling if the fuel source is placed and ignited on the charcoal pan. Do not build too large a fire. We recommend starting a fire with no more than 2 lbs of charcoal per tray (approximately 30 briquettes per tray) and adding more as needed during cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, place the cooking grates in the unit. Failure to read and follow instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and or property damage.

1. Most surfaces on this unit are hot when in use. Use extreme caution. Keep others away from unit.
2. Always wear protective clothing to prevent injury.
3. Keep children and pets away.
4. DO NOT move this unit during operation.
5. Never substitute gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for charcoal starter. In some states, the use of charcoal starter is prohibited by law. In this case, paraffin-based starter cubes can be substituted for charcoal starter. Never use charcoal starter fluid with an electric starter.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Grill Maintenance
Frequency of cleaning is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely extinguished and the grates are cooled down before cleaning inside of the unit. To remove the stains on the lid and front panel caused by fumigation while grilling, use of a cleaning pad is recommended.

Wipe out the interior of unit with a cloth or paper towel. Clean the grates with warm water and pat dry. The coating is fragile. Do not knock, hit or drop the grates.
