Why is my Z GRILLS ZPG-450A auger noisy?

Why my Z GRILLS Grill has excess or discoloured smoke?

Run the grill on HIGH to clear remaining pellets from the auger tube. 3. Turn the dial to the 'Shut Down Cycle'. 4. Once cooled, vacuum the hopper and fire pot. 5.

What to do if my Z GRILLS ZPG-450A Grill does not work properly?
If your Z GRILLS Grill isn't working correctly, here are a few things to check: * **Power:** Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in and that the electrical outlet has power. * **Fuse:** Remove the control and inspect the fuse on the back; replace it if it's blown. * **Hot Rod:** If both the Draft Inducer Fan and the Auger Driver Motor are running, the Hot Rod likely needs replacement. If either the fan or motor isn't working, further assistance is needed. * **Auger Drive Motor:** Check the small fan blade on the back of the auger drive motor. If it doesn't turn when the unit is on, the motor needs to be replaced.
