CLEAN UP
WARNING DO NOT QUENCH HOT GRILL
WITH WATER. The Infierno’s grill surfaces and basting
pans all lift off for cleaning. They are 304 stainless
steel and can be washed by hand or in a commercial
dishwasher. If using a dishwasher, the grill surfaces
should be re-oiled (seasoned) again before cooking as
they will be dry after going through the machine.
Ash collects in the drawers below the firebrick base.
The ash falls through the fire grates placed in the fire
brick. WAIT UNTIL THE GRILL HAS COOLED
BEFORE EMPTYING THE ASH DRAWERS.
Disposal of ashes - ashes should be placed in a metal
container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container
should be placed on a non-combustible floor well away
from all combustible materials pending final disposal.
The ashes should be retained in the closed container until
all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
Excess grease or ash buildup around the grill’s moving
parts and external surfaces should be wiped off once the
grill has cooled.
MAINTENANCE & CARE
The Infierno’s body is constructed entirely in 304
stainless steel. The tubular main frame is 2”x2” in 11
gauge. The side and bottom panels are 14 gauge. The
back plate is 7 gauge. The grate supporting the fire brick
is 1” x 3/16 19SW4. The fire brick floor is constructed of
2.3”x4.5”x9” brick, the sides are lined in 1.125”x4.5”x9”
brick. Any brick can be individually replaced by lifting
them out of the floor or loosening the back cap at the top
of the grill with a hex key.
The Infierno’s cooking system is designed for maximum
motion and flexibility. All moving parts, especially the lift
systems, need to be checked for free motion BEFORE
EVERY USE. Ash and other normal side-products of
cooking and fire can build up on the tracks the lift system
travels on and can impede motion if left uncleaned.
BEFORE EVERY USE check that the rollers that the lift
system uses to travel up and down the track are free to
move. Do not over tighten them. It is recommended that
the rollers be lightly lubed with cooking oil before use to
ensure they roll smoothly.
BEFORE EVERY USE check the hex screws in the
barrels that pick up the cables to ensure they are tight
and seated correctly. Do the same with the set screws in
the star wheel (the 5-pronged cog that holds the grill at
height). Also inspect or clear the rollers that travel up and
down the tracks to ensure they can turn freely.
BEFORE EVERY USE inspect the lift cables for any wear,
and make sure they are seated correctly in the pulleys and
wrapping correctly on the barrels. If they are wrapping
unevenly simply lower the surfaces to the lowest point
and raise them back up, this will straighten the wrap on
the barrels. IF THERE IS ANY DAMAGE TO A CABLE
REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY. The cables loosen via
hex key from the barrels and can be quickly swapped
WHEN THE GRILL IS NOT IN USE. The Infierno
comes with spares, Grillworks can always provide more.
See correct lift cable wrap on the right-station barrel.
The retaining hex screws are located at the front end of
each barrel.
