Yoder YS 480
Smoker Assembly
Smoker Arrival
Your Yoder Smoker will arrive on a pallet wrapped and held on with metal bands. Cut
the bands and remove the plastic wrap and foam from the smoker. Remove the smoker
from the pallet. It is recommended that two people remove the Yoder from the pallet
due to its size and weight. Open the hopper lid and remove the grease bucket that
contains the power cord and a spare fuse and set aside. Open the cooking chamber
and remove all the wrapped components. There will be a front shelf, a side shelf, two
cooking grates, a heat diuser plate, burn grate, and smoke stack.
NOTE: If a second shelf and a bag of pellets were ordered they will be in the cooking
chamber as well.
Assembly of your new Yoder starts by installing the burn grate inside the rebox. See
