Pellet Pro® Startup
SECTION ONE: INITIAL FIRING INSTRUCTIONS
(To be used only when grill has not been “seasoned”)
In order to ensure proper operation of the grill, you must first allow the auger tube
to be “charged” with pellets.
1) Open the door and remover the porcelain grill, grease drain pan and heat baffle from
inside the grill.
2) Plug the power cord into an appropriate, grounded electrical outlet. 15- 20 Amp
GFCI (20 Amp preferred)
3) Open the pellet hopper lid and locate the auger. Make sure there are no foreign objects
in the auger and fill hopper with pellets. **Turn the power “on,” and push the “Feed”
button to feed pellets into the burnpot.**
4) Once pellets are visible in the burnpot, push “Feed” button again to stop feeding
pellets, then replace heat diffusor, drip pan, and grate. Close lid and set the controller
temperature to 350°F using the “+” button. CAUTION: Hot Rod will become
extremely Hot!
5) Once temperature reaches 350°F, run for 30 minutes.
6) After 30 min at 350°, open lid/door and turn controller “off” to initiate the 15 minute
shutdown cycle. Afterwards, be sure all pellets are extinguished.
7) For future cooks, please refer to Section Two: Subsequent Start-Up
