surges, it will likely trip during the start-up phase of operation. During
the start-up phase, the igniter draws 200-700 watts of electricity
which can be too much power for a GFCI outlet to handle. The quality
of the GFCI does not matter, but rather the sensitivity; each time it
trips, it increases in sensitivity. If the GFCI keeps tripping, replace the
outlet or change to a non-GFCI outlet.

ON THE ROAD
Disconnect the igniter from the main wiring harness. Use the manual
start-up procedure. A Pit Boss unit can operate using a 12 volt, 100 watt
inverter plugged into your automobile outlet. To use the automatic
igniter, it is recommended to use a minimum of a 1000 watt inverter.
IMPORTANT: Disconnect unit from power source when not in use.
With today's lifestyle of striving to eat healthy and nutritious foods, one factor to consider is the importance of reducing fat
intake. One of the best ways to cut down on fat in your diet is to use a low fat method of cooking, such as grilling. As a pellet
grill uses natural wood pellets, the savory wood flavor is cooked into the meats, reducing the need for high sugar content sauces.
Throughout this manual, you will notice the emphasis on grilling food slowly at LOW or MEDIUM temperature settings.
GRILL ENVIRONMENT
1. WHERE TO SET-UP THE GRILL
With all outdoor appliances, outside weather conditions play a big part in the performance of your grill and the cooking time
needed to perfect your meals. The Pit Boss, because of its single wall construction, should be considered as a 2 to 3 season
grill, depending on where you live.
All Pit Boss units should keep a minimum clearance of 305mm (12 inches) from combustible constructions, and this clearance
must be maintained while the grill is operational. This appliance must not be placed under overhead combustible ceiling or
overhang. Keep your grill in an area clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
2. COLD WEATHER COOKING
As it becomes cooler outside, that does not mean that grilling season is over! The crisp cool air and heavenly aroma of
smoked foods will help cure your winter blues.
Follow these suggestions on how to enjoy your grill throughout the cooler months:
•
If smoking at low temperatures fails, increase the temperature slightly to achieve the same results.
•
Organize – Get everything you require ready in the kitchen before you head outdoors. During the winter, move your
grill to an area that is out of the wind and direct cold. Check local bylaws regarding the proximity of your grill in
relation to your home and/or other structures. Put everything you need on a tray, bundle up tight, and get it done!
•
To help keep track of the outside temperature, place an outdoor thermometer close to your cooking area. Keep a log
or history of what you cooked, the outdoor temperature, and the cooking time. This will help later down the road to
help you determine what to cook and how long it will take.
•
In very cold weather, increase your preheating time by at least 20 minutes.
