Burner Clean-out
Before each use the burner should be cleaned out
by lifting the pullout lock and pulling the clean-out
port knob on the right side of the grill to open the
burner clean-out. This will allow the ash from
previous use to fall into the cup under the grill.
The cup should be removed and emptied and then
reinstalled before each use.
Never Operate the Pellet grill without the ash
cup in place.
Make sure the burner clean-out port is closed
and locked before starting the grill.
Never open the burner clean-out port when the
grill is hot.
After cleaning out the burner make sure to close the
burner clean-out by pushing the clean-out port knob
in on the right side of the grill. Make sure to lift
the pullout lock and push the clean-out port knob
all the way in and lock in place with the pullout
lock. Every 50 hours of use, remove the grill grates,
grease tray, and heat deflector and clean the inside
of the grill. If you notice a lot of ash blowing around
in the grill it is time to vacuum it out.
Filling the Auger Tube
Caution: Only use the feed setting when hopper
has ran out of pellets. Feed setting is not for
normal use.
The first time you use your grill or any time the
hopper has ran out of pellets you will need to fill
the auger tube. This simply means you must fill
the auger tube with pellets until pellets reach the
burner. This is done by turning the dial to the FEED
position and then holding in the bypass button
for 3 seconds. This will turn the auger on and the
digital readout will display "FEED". The auger
will remain on for no more than 7 minutes. This is

ample time for the pellets to reach the burner. It
is easiest to open the burner clean-out by pulling
the knob on the right side of the grill. Once you
hear pellets dropping into the cup you can close
the clean-out port by pushing the knob on the
right side of the grill and then select your cooking
temperature. (Never operate grill without the
ash cup in place). Always make sure the burner
clean-out port is closed by pushing in the knob on
the right side of the grill before selecting any of
the cook settings. Never open the burner clean-out
port when the grill is hot.
Emptying the Hopper
This grill is equipped with a hopper drain to quickly
remove the pellets from the hopper. This can be
used to remove pellets if the grill is being stored
for a long time or to remove pellets to change to a
different flavor pellet.
Warning: Never remove the auger guard from the
hopper while the pellet grill is on. Never operate the
grill without the auger guard in place.
