CLEANING YOUR MAK GRILL
In order to keep your MAK looking as good as new, follow these
recommended cleaning/maintenance guidelines. Take care of your MAK,
EXTERIOR:
*
Fan Panel: Twice a year clean the ports in the fan panel of dust, dirt,
pollen or other debris. Use a shop-vac to quickly clean the panel, or
remove it from the grill, clean it and then re-install it.
*
Pellet Hopper: Remove accumulated pellet dust by vacuuming out the
pellet hopper as needed. Be sure to vacuum out any pellet dust
accumulation in the auger tube as well.
*
Powder Coat Finish: Remove grease cooking residue from the powder
coating using a mild dish detergent and hot water. If the residue does
not clean off, lightly agitate the area using a "Dobie" pad. Wipe clean
using a damp cloth and a soft towel or cloth to dry.
*
Pellet Boss: Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove greasy
fingerprints, dust or dirt. Avoid getting any water or soap into the meat
probe inputs. Wipe dry using a soft towel or cloth.
*
Grill Lid: To reduce grease dripping, clean the lip and inside of the grill
lid using mild dish detergent and hot water. Some grill owners remove
their lids from the grill and clean the underside of the lid with a general
purpose degreaser or dish detergent and hot water.
*
Grease Drawer: Holds up to 2 quarts of grease, and cooking
drippings. We recommend that you use a disposable foil mini-loaf pan
to capture the drippings and help in quick disposal. You can also line
your drawer with foil to facilitate easier clean out as well. Make sure
that pan or foil do not overlap the sides or ends of the drawer, as this
will prevent it from properly fitting into its slot under the grill.
*
Exhaust Louvers: To ensure proper airflow in your grill, keep the
exhaust louvers free of smoke, grease and cooking residue. (Use hot
water and mild dish detergent to clean the inside and outside of the
louvers.) To access the louvers from inside your grill, remove the four
nuts and bolts, which attach the baffle to the inside back wall of the
cooking chamber. After cleaning, reattach the baffle to the inside of
the grill.
