The key is to experiment with the length of time you allow for smoking, before the meal is finished cooking. Some outdoor chefs
prefer to smoke at the end of a cook, allowing the food to keep warm until ready to serve. Practice makes perfect!
UNDERSTANDING THE PROBE
Located inside the main barrel is the temperature probe. It is a small, vertical piece of stainless steel. The temperature probe
measures the internal temperature of the unit. When the temperature is adjusted on the Control Board, the temperature probe
will read the actual temperature inside the unit and adjust to the desired temperature.
IMPORTANT: The temperature of your unit is highly affected on ambient outdoor weather, quality of pellets used,
flavor of pellets, and the quantity of food being cooked.

HOW TO COLLAPSE (A-B-C-D)
1.
Ensure the unit is unplugged, and the grease bucket is removed. Remove the
cooking components from inside the main barrel, and place aside.
NOTE: It is recommended to have the hopper empty, or near empty, to avoid
spilling pellets when the unit is changing positions.
2. Holding the handle on the end of the hopper, press down firmly on the left folding
bar (to unlock) and fold in the legs with wheels. As the legs tuck beneath the main
barrel, carefully rest the unit on the floor in a triangular position.
3. Next, holding the handle on the barrel end, unscrew the two folding bar knobs.
Press down firmly on the right folding bar (to unlock), and push in the stationary
legs to tuck beneath the main barrel.
4. Replace the cooking components inside the main barrel, and replace the grease
bucket on the spout hook. The grill is now ready for tailgating!
HOW TO EXPAND (D-C-B-A)
1.
Ensure the unit is unplugged, and the grease bucket is removed. Remove the
cooking components from inside the main barrel, and place aside.
NOTE: It is recommended to have the hopper empty, or near empty, to avoid
spilling pellets when the unit is changing positions.
2. Holding the handle on the barrel end, tip the unit almost vertical to press down
firmly on the right folding bar (to unlock) and pull out the stationary legs. Once the
legs are extended, the right folding bar will spring back into the locked position.
Ensure the diagonal support bar extends and locks into a brace position, then
tighten the two folding bar knobs. Rest the unit in a triangular position.
3. Next, holding the handle on the end of the hopper, carefully lift the hopper side of
the unit, and pivot the grill away from you. Squat down and press down firmly on
the left folding bar (to unlock) and pull out the legs with wheels until extended.
4. Replace the cooking components inside the main barrel, and replace the grease
bucket on the spout hook. The grill is now ready for use!
NOTE: Another way to expand the unit is to carefully tip the grill backwards
so it lies on its back side – mind that the lid of the main barrel does not swing
open. Expand using same details as above. Then, from the rear of the grill,
lift the grill into an upright position.
IMPORTANT: Unless the unit is changing positions, the folding bar should remain
in the locking position (raised up).
