ASSEMBLING YOUR ALFRESCO KAMADO GRILL

ASSEMBLING YOUR ALFRESCO KAMADO GRILL WITH
A LEG STAND (ALK-LS)

1. Cut the plastic bands and remove the top and side panels of the shipping box.

2. Unpack and assemble the Leg Stand (instructions enclosed).

3. Open the grill and remove the components.

4. Place assembled Leg Stand on a secure level surface before inserting the grill.

5. Gently lift the grill and place it on the Leg Stand. Adjust the position so the front of the

grill is centered between the legs with the two locking casters. We highly recommend that
two people lift the grill into the cart due to the weight.

CAUTION: DO NOT LIFT THE GRILL ONTO THE LEG
STAND BY THE HINGE MECHANISM OR SIDE SHELF
SUPPORT BRACKETS.

6. Open the grill and fully open the air intake door. Place the charcoal holder inside the grill

and align the opening at the bottom of the charcoal holder with the opening in the air
intake. This allows the air to flow freely into the grill and easy removal of ash residue.

7. Place the charcoal grate in the bottom of the charcoal holder. Ash will fall through the

holes in the grate and collect underneath the charcoal holder.

8. Place the charcoal spacer on top of the charcoal holder with the notches up.

9. Place the stainless steel barbecue grate on top of the charcoal spacer, with the hinged

door at the front of the grill.

10.Close the grill dome and place the cast iron top vent on top of the dome neck.

11.Attach the side shelves by placing the front pins in the slots of the shelf brackets.
