Remove the porcelain-coated grill grate, grease
drip tray, and heat bafe to provide access to the
repot and the interior of the grill. Much of the
ash outside of the repot can be removed from the
grill with a small metal replace shovel or other
similar tool.
WARNING! A shop vac is the best way to remove
ashes from the repot, but this must be done
with extreme care to avoid the risk of re. Again,
cleaning the ash from the repot should be done
only when the grill is COLD.
A utility-type, bagless vacuum cleaner with a
metal collection canister would be best for this
task. However, almost any vacuum cleaner will
work safely if this procedure is properly followed.
After ensuring that the ash in the repot is COLD,
vacuum the ash from the inside of the repot.
a. If your vacuum cleaner is a bagless model,
empty any previously accumulated debris from
the collection chamber. Then vacuum the ash
from the inside of the repot. Once the repot
is clean, empty the collection chamber into
the metal container described below without
delay. Make sure that there is no remaining ash
residue left in the collection chamber.
b. If your vacuum cleaner is a model that uses
a disposable bag, install an unused bag in the
machine. Then vacuum the ash from the inside
of the repot. Once the repot is clean, remove
the bag from the vacuum cleaner and place it
in the metal container described below without
delay.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES:
WARNING! Ashes should be placed in a metal
container with a tight-tting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible oor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending
nal disposal. When the ashes are disposed of by
burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until
all cinders have cooled thoroughly.
