CLEANING YOUR GRILL
CLEANING YOUR GRILL
Your LazyMan LM210 Series grill has been
built with the finest grade of 304 stainless
steel available. All exterior surfaces feature
a #4 brushed finish. With proper
maintenance, this finish will last for many
years. Here are a few pointers to keep your
grill looking and functioning like new:
After each use, wipe down the complete
exterior of your grill using a soft cloth and a
commercially available stainless steel
cleaner. It is important to remove the
grease splatters and food debris at this
time, rather than allowing it to become
‘cooked on’. It will be much harder to
remove the next time.
Always wipe in the direction of the grain
finish. The front hood and most front
surfaces have the grain running in a
horizontal direction.
When trying to remove a heavier grease
and dirt build-up, a mild mixture of dish
soap and warm water can be used for
cleaning. To remove the most stubborn
stains, a non- metallic, medium grit abrasive
like Scotch-Brite® can be used, but ALWAYS
remember to work in the direction of the
grain.
DO NOT use metallic abrasives (like steel
wool) to clean your grill’s front surfaces.
DO NOT use solvents on the grill label.
CLEANING THE DRIP PAN
Similar to cleaning the main grill
components, the longer you wait to clean
the drip pan, the harder it will be to remove
the grease and food debris. The drip pan
can be removed completely from the grill
for easier cleaning. Start by draining any
free flowing grease by tilting the pan over a
waste container (an empty coffee can is
perfect). Scoop up the food debris with a
dust pan or similar device. Wipe the
remaining grease with paper towels, and
then finish by using a mild solution of dish
soap and a kitchen sponge backed by a
Scotch-Bright® pad. A commercially
available stainless steel cleaner can also be
used.
WARNING
It is critical to keep the drip pan free from
food build-up, as, this debris can still cause
flare-ups and create a fire hazard. Always
remember to replace the drip pan into the
grill. DO NOT USE THE GRILL WITHOUT THE
DRIP PAN IN PLACE.
It is also good practice to check the contents
of the drip pan after a heavy rain.
If the grill is not covered, the drip pan can
collect water and prevent it from doing its
job.
CLEANING THE GRATES
It is best to clean the grates immediately
after each use while the grill is still warm
(but not when the grill is turned on). Wear a
long oven or bar b que mitt(s) to protect
your hand from the heat and remaining
steam, and use a commercially available
