Flame Deflector; Grill Interior; Steel Grates; Cast Iron Grate - England's Stove Works 21-PG100 Instructions

GRILL MAINTENANCE, CONTINUED
Flame Deflector
The flame deflector is located on the left "direct" heating side, under the cast iron grate. It is
recommended that you remove any food or grease buildup that may accumulate when cooking
on the direct side. Also, regularly remove the flame deflector and clean it with a scraper or
putty knife. This will greatly reduce the risk of grease flare ups during cooking. Make sure the
flame deflector is cool before cleaning. It may be cleaned with hot, soapy water.
Grill Interior
Although food‐grade wood pellets burn very efficiently, they will still create a small amount of
ash that will accumulate on the inside grill walls, doors, grates and in the ash pan storage area.
Although it is not necessary to keep these areas spotless, occasional cleaning is recommended.
This can be done with a scraper, putty knife, utility shop vac and some soft cloths.
Steel Grates
Along with scraping the steel grates with a grill brush before each use, we also recommend
periodically cleaning these grates with hot, soapy water. These grates are also dishwasher safe.
Cast Iron Grate
The cast iron grate should be cleaned before each use with a grill brush. It may also be cleaned
periodically with hot, soapy water.
Door Thermometer
Over time, the thermometer probe may accumulate a small buildup of ash. To ensure the
thermometer is accurately reading temperature, it is recommended that you clean the probe
regularly with a wet cloth or paper towel.
Grill Thermocouple
Over time, the thermocouple may also accumulate a small buildup of ash. To ensure the
thermocouple is accurately reading temperature, it is recommended that you clean the tip off
regularly, with a wet cloth or paper towel. If your actual temperature reading on the control
board differs significantly from the door probe, that is an indication that the thermocouple
needs to be cleaned off.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight‐fitting lid. The closed container of
ashes should be placed on a non‐combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending final disposal. When the ashes are disposed by burial in soil or
otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders
have thoroughly cooled.
