PRECAUTIONS:
• Read and follow all warnings on Page 3 and 4 of this manual, before operating the grill.
• For first time operation of the grill, please follow the “SET UP PROCEDURE” to ensure the auger tube is fully loaded with
pellets. For subsequent operation of the grill, please follow the
• “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” to ignite the grill.

• Never add pellets to a hot fire pot by hand. You could be seriously burned. If the pellets run out or the fire goes out, wait
until the grill cools down, and then follow the “ SET UP PROCEDURE” to restart.
• Never put water in the fire pot as this could cause the auger to jam.
• Never use water to extinguish flare-ups. Close the lid and turn off the grill and wait for the fire to extinguish itself.
• Never use any flammable liquids, such as gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar
liquids, to start or freshen-up the fire! Keep all such liquids well away from the grill while it is in use.
