FIRST USE – GRILL BURN-OFF
Once your hopper has been primed and before cooking on your grill for the first time, it is important to complete a grill burn-off.
Start the grill and operate at any temperature over 176°C / 350°F (with the lid down) for 30 to 40 minutes to burn-off the grill
and rid it of any foreign matter.
AUTOMATIC START-UP PROCEDURE
1. Plug the power cord into a grounded power source. Open the main barrel lid. Check the fire pot to ensure there is no
obstruction for proper ignition. Open the hopper lid. Ensure there are no foreign objects in the hopper or auger feed
system. Fill the hopper with dry, all natural barbecue hardwood pellets.
2. Press the
Power Button
to turn the unit on. Ensure the
Temperature Control Dial
to the SMOKE position. This will
activate the start-up cycle. The auger feed system will begin to turn, the igniter will begin to glow and the fan will supply
air to the fire pot. The grill will begin to produce smoke while the start-up cycle is taking place. The barrel lid must remain
open during the start-up cycle. To confirm the start-up cycle has begun properly, listen for a torchy roar, and notice some
heat being produced.
3. Once the heavy, white smoke has dissipated, the start-up cycle is complete and you are ready to enjoy your grill at your
desired temperature!
IGNITER FAILURE PROCEDURE
If for any reason your electric igniter fails or your grill's flame dies out during a cook, check the following steps, or
start your grill using the manual method.
1. Ensure the
Temperature Control Dial
is in the SMOKE position and hold the
Power Button
for two seconds to turn off
the unit. Open the barrel lid. Remove the cooking components from inside. Remove all unburnt pellets and ash from the
fire pot. Avoid touching the igniter to avoid injury, as it may be extremely hot.
2. Once all cooking components are removed and cleaned, press the
Power Button
to turn the unit on and ensure the
Temperatur Control Dial
to the SMOKE position. Check the following:
• Visually confirm that the igniter is working by placing your hand above the fire pot and feeling for heat.
• Visually confirm that the igniter is protruding approximately 13mm / 0.5 inches in the fire pot.
• Visually confirm that the auger is dropping pellets into the fire pot.
• Confirm that the combustion fan is working by listening for a torchy roar.
3. If any of the above points are not working, follow

MANUAL START-UP PROCEDURE
1. Plug the power cord into a grounded power source.
2. Check fire pot to ensure there is no obstruction for proper ignition. Open the hopper lid. Ensure there are no foreign
objects in the hopper or auger feed system. Fill hopper with dry, all natural hardwood barbecue pellets.
3. Open the barrel lid. Remove the cooking components to expose the fire pot. Place a generous handful of pellets into the
fire pot. Squirt a gelled fire starter, or other appropriate pellet starter, over the top of the pellets. A small amount of solid
fuel fire starter, such as one composed of sawdust and wax, or wood shavings, is also appropriate. Add another small
amount of pellets in the fire pot.
NOTE: Do not use spirit, petrol, gasoline, lighter-fluid or kerosene for lighting or refreshing a fire in your grill.
4. Light the contents of the fire pot using a long match or long-nosed lighter. Allow the starter to burn for 3 to 5 minutes.
Do not attempt to add more starter into the fire pot. This can cause injury.
