Set Up Procedure; Getting Started - Louisiana Grills 420 Owner's Manual

Please note that during shipping or moving around on your deck, some movement within the grill may have taken place,
so a complete visual inspection is required. Please follow these Initial Set-Up procedures to ensure the proper and safe
operation of your grill.
TIP
It is a highly recommended practice to always go through these basic SET
UP PROCEDURES, after every 1 to 3 cookings. This will ensure proper igni-
tion, heat output and many continuous happy grilling experiences.
Step 1
Open the SMOKER LID and remove the
Cooking Grids (13).
Step 2
Remove the "Arched Flavor Guard" (12).
Clean off any excess food drippings or
grease build-up.
Step 3
Remove the Stainless Steel Burn Grate
(8) and Burn Pot (9).
Remove any foreign items. Ensure that
the air holes in the grate (8) and the
Igniter (7) are clear of debris.
Note: You can line the bottom of the barrel with
heavy-duty aluminum foil. Line from left to right,
starting under the igniter (burn pot area) and going
to the Arched Flavor Guard support.
This will make clean-up and general maintenance easier.
Step 4
Re-install the Burn Pot (9). Slide the Burn Pot all the way into the side of the barrel and hopper opening and
ensure the pot clips into place. Confirm that the pot is sitting snug to the barrel bottom.
Step 5
Re-install the Burn Grate (8). Ensure that the stainless steel grate is sitting down and snug in the burn pot (9)
and that the igniter is lined up properly with the hole in the burn grate. You may have to gently lift up or down on
the igniter to align with the hole.
Step 6
Re-install the "Arched Flavor Guard" (12). The "Arch" should be facing upward and sets on a mounting bracket
and grease divider plate. One end of the Arch does have a slot cut into it. This slot hooks over the moveable
hanging bracket found over the pellet fuel drop area. Ensure that this mounting bracket is snug against the bar-
rel. If you are cooking anything with a large amount of drippings, you may want to line the Arched Flavor Guard
with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Step 7
Re-install the Cooking Grids (13)
Step 8
Ensure the Grease Bucket (11) is installed, cleaned and ready to go.
Step 9
Open the Hopper Lid (1) and check for any foreign materials. Fill the hopper (2) with your choice of all natural
wood pellet fuel.
Step 10
Plug it in. Start it up. Savor the Flavor !
