Pellet Boss®
Make sure igniter plug does not interfere with fan or auger
operation.
RE-secure fan panel.
Follow Manual Lighting instructions to continue cooking on
your MAK GRILL.
Be sure firepot is free from excessive pellet ash, which can
cover the igniter rod and prevent the pellets from lighting.
Check to see if igniter rod glows red. Disconnect from
power, remove the fan/access panel to get to the back of
the control board. Make sure that the plug IGNITER is
tightly plugged into the RED receptacle on the back of the
board.
Make sure pellets are feeding into the firepot during start-
up. If the auger is not turning, check the auger plug
connection on the back of the board. Unplug the power
cord, remove the fan/access panel to get to the back of
the control board. Confirm that the plug labeled AUGER is
tightly plugged into the WHITE receptacle on the back of
the control board.
