Care & Maintenance - Pit Boss PRO Serie Assemblage Et Fonctionnement

WARNING: Always disconnect the electrical cord prior to opening the grill for any inspection, cleaning,
maintenance or service work. Ensure the grill is completely cooled to avoid injury.
Any Pit Boss® unit will give you many years of flavorful service with minimum cleaning. Follow these cleaning and maintenance
tips to service your grill:
1. ASH CLEAN-OUT
• At the bottom of the grill barrel is an ash cleanout feature, giving you easy access
to the inside of your fire box to easily clean it as often as needed. To empty, release
the buckle latch on the ash box hook. While holding the handle, slide the ash box
away from the buckle, then pull down to remove. Once emptied, replace the ash box
by lifting it back into the bottom of the grill barrel, sliding the ash box towards the
buckle, then fastening the ash box hook with the buckle latch.
WARNING: This feature can only be operated when the grill is cooled down.
2. HOPPER ASSEMBLY
• Running all pellets out of your auger system is recommended if your grill will be unused for an extended period
of time. This can be done by simply running your grill, on an empty hopper, until all pellets have emptied from the
auger tube.
• Check and clean off any debris from the fan air intake vent, found on the bottom of the hopper. Once the hopper
access panel is removed (see Electric Wire Diagram for diagram), carefully wipe off any grease build-up directly on
the fan blades. This ensures airflow is sufficient to the feed system.
HOPPER CLEAN-OUT FEATURE
The hopper includes a clean-out feature to allow for easy cleaning and the ability to
change out wood pellet fuel flavors. To empty, follow these steps:
1. Locate the clean-out door and door hook on the back side of the hopper.
2. Rotate the door hook (at the top) to the right so it is detached from the release
latch rod. Place a clean, empty pail under the clean-out door and allow the door to
lower. Lift the release latch rod to open the drop-chute plate, allowing the pellets
from the hopper to empty.
3. Once empty, push the drop-chute plate back up into place by hand. It will lock into
place. Close the clean-out door and rotate the door hook back onto the release
latch rod to secure.
NOTE: Use a long handled brush or shop-vac to remove excess pellets, sawdust,
and debris for a complete clean-out through the hopper screen.
3. PROBES
• Kinks or folds in the probe wires may cause damage. A meat probe not in use should be rolled up in a large, loose coil.
• Although both the grill probe and the meat probes are stainless steel, do not place in the dishwasher or submerge
in water. Water damage to the internal wires will cause a probe to short-out, causing false readings. If a probe is
damaged, it should be replaced.
