SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: WHEN OPERATING THIS GRILL, MAINTAIN A MINIMUM CLEARANCE OF 10 FEET FROM
GRILL TO COMBUSTIBLES.
Never move the grill when it is hot. Make sure the fire is out and the grill is cold before moving it. Never put
water in the crucible to cool it as this will jam the auger.
NEVER ADD PELLETS BY HAND TO A HOT CRUCIBLE. This is dangerous and you may be seriously burned. If you
run out of pellets and lose your fire while cooking, let the grill completely cool and start again with the INITIAL
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS.
Make sure the heat diffuser is properly seated in the locating brackets. Failure to do so may cause flame to
come out of the crucible and create a grease fire in the grill. The long flanges of the heat diffuser should be
pointing down over the crucible.
Clean the grease deflector, grease drain and grease drain tube on a regular basis to prevent grease fires.
Grease fires are caused by not properly maintaining the grill by failing to clean you grease deflector, grease
drain and grease drain tube on a regular basis. In the unlikely event of a grease fire while cooking, turn the
switch and dial off and keep the lid closed until the fire is completely out. Never keep the lid open during a
grease fire. If it does not go out, lightly sprinkle baking soda on the fire. Be careful not to burn yourself. If this
does not work, carefully remove the food from the grill and keep the lid closed until the fire is completely out.
When the grill is completely cool, remove the cooking grate and clean the grease deflector or replace the foil
if your grease deflector is covered. Clean any grease accumulation from the grease drain and the grease drain
tube. Replace the grease deflector and the cooking grate. Restart the grill and resume cooking.
