Probes
• Wipe your meat probe after each use. A meat probe not in use
should be rolled up in a large, loose coil. Kinks or folds in the probe
wires may cause damage. Do not place in the dishwasher or sub-
merge in water. Water damage to the internal wires will cause a
meat probe to short-out, causing false readings. (G)
• Check and clean off any grease or debris from the grill probe
(sensor), found inside the smoking chamber, on the right-side wall.
The grill probe must remain clean to give accurate temperature
readings to the Control Board. (H)
• If a probe is damaged, it should be replaced.
Hopper
• The hopper includes a clean-out feature to allow for ease of clean-
ing and change out of pellet fuel flavors. Locate the clean-out door
on the back side of the hopper. Place a clean, empty pail under the
clean-out door. Loosen the door knob slightly to release the door
latch. Rotate the door latch upwards to open the door, allowing
the pellets from the hopper to empty. Once empty, rotate the door
latch back onto the Door Knob. Tighten the door knob to secure. (I)
NOTE: Use a long handled brush or wet/dry vacuum to remove
excess pellets, sawdust, and debris for a complete clean-out.
• Running all pellets out of your auger system is recommended if
your smoker will be unused for an extended period of time. This
can be done by simply running your smoker, on an empty hopper,
until all pellets have emptied from the auger tube.
• Check and clean off any debris from the fan air intake vent, found
on the underside of the unit. For an extensive cleaning, remove
the screws from the fan housing and carefully wipe off any grease
build-up directly on the fan blades. Use warm soapy water to cut
the soot and grease. This ensures airflow is clean and sufficient to
the feed system. (J)
