Basic Grill Operation
Before lighting, make sure all burner controls are off.
Do not attempt to light the burners if the smell of gas is
present. Check the connection with a soap and water
solution after attaching the hose. For LP units, make
sure there is gas in the tank and it is sitting upright. For
natural gas units, make sure the shut off valve is on.
Make sure the drip tray is in place.
Light the grill burners using the instructions on the
previous page.

appliance preheat period.
Place the food on the grill and cook to desired
completion. Adjust heat setting if necessary. You
may set the control knob to any position between
HIGH and LOW.
Allow the grill to cool and clean the drip tray after
each use.
Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.

Cooking with the Rotisserie
The rotisserie burner is an infrared type, which provides
intense searing radiant heat. It is designed to cook
items from the back using infrared heat. The location
of the burner allows the placement of a rotisserie-
basting pan (NOT included) beneath the food to collect
juices and drippings for basting and gravy.
The rotisserie does not require and additional outlet
as it is powered by a 12-volt input located on the side
of the grill connected with a sainless steel sheathed
power cable.
To load the rotisserie rod, hold the handle firmly
while sliding one of the fork assemblies (prongs
facing away from the handle) onto the rod. Push
the rod through the center of the food, then slide
the other holder (prongs toward the food) onto
the rod. Center the meat on the rod and push
the fork assemblies firmly together. Tighten the
thumbscrews. To secure any loose portions of
your meat, use butcher string (never use nylon or
plastic string). Place a basting pan under the food
to collect the drippings.
1.
To use the rotisserie, first mount the motor on the
left side of the grill. Place securely onto support
bracket.
The rod of the rotisserie system is assembled into
the motor by placing the pointed end into the motor
and resting the threaded end on the support at the
side of the grill. Once the rod is pushed as far as
possible into the motor, the grooved end of the rod
should rest on the right side bracket.
If necessary, to offset unbalanced loads, slide the
counter weight on to the rod. With the counter
weight loose, allow the loaded rod to rotate and
come to a stop. Now rotate the counter weight
above the rod in a vertical position and tighten
the thumbscrew. You can slide the counter weight
away from or closer to the rotisserie rod as needed
for balanced operation. Once lit, the rotisserie
burner will reach cooking temperature in about one
minute. The orange/red glow will even out in about
five minutes.
