USING THE CHARCOAL GRILL
1.
Check to be certain that the ash pan is in place and pushed all the way into the grill.
2.
Remove the hex grates and pile the charcoal on the charcoal basket evenly.
Note: Do not pile
more than 4 pounds of charcoal per charcoal basket. For indirect cooking leave one
basket empty.
3.
To light charcoal, follow the recommended lighting procedure of the charcoal.
4.
To raise and lower the charcoal basket, turn the crank either clockwise or counter-clockwise
until the desired height is achieved. (Crank will stop when at top of travel)
5.
To add more charcoal, open the front access panel and pile the newly added charcoal evenly
across the charcoal baskets.
6.
Allow grill to cool and clean the ash pan after each use.
USING THE OPTIONAL ROTISSERIE KIT
The Rotisserie system rotates the food on top of the charcoal for even cooking and juicier taste.
1.
Install the rotisserie motor on the motor bracket and plug it in to proper voltage.
2.
Insert the food on the middle of the spit rod and then secure it with the meat holders on both ends by
tightening the thumb screws on the meat forks. If multiple pieces of food will be cooked at the same
time, make sure the load is evenly balanced on the spit rod. Proper weight balancing will lead to
evenness of cooking and prolong the life of the rotisserie motor.
3.
Insert the spit rod in the rotisserie motor. Reference assembly instructions for rotisserie assembly
instructions.
WARNING:
When using the rotisserie always keep the front hood closed except when basting or
checking the meat for cooking completion. It is recommended to use a meat thermometer to check if
the food is completely cooked.
NOTE:
The rotisserie motor must be stored in an area secured from
the surrounding elements when not in use. Do not leave it mounted on the grill.

WARNING!
When the charcoal grill is in use, the surfaces of the grill will be
HOT.
Exercise caution
when using the unit especially when adding charcoal or cranking the charcoal basket.
USING THE AIR VENTS
Air vents control the rate of burn of the charcoal. There are three locations to adjust the
air flow of the charcoal grill. One vent on each side of the hood and one vent on the lower
portion of the front panel. A roasting effect can be obtained by closing the top vents on the side
of the hood. This will aid in maintaining a more constant temperature and will reduce the rate of
burn on the charcoal. This effect is increased by closing the front vents but depending on the
amount of charcoal used will take longer or shorter to create a change in burn rate. Conversely,
opening them will speed up the rate of burn but will reduce the roasting effect. The thermometer
on the hood can be used as a gauge of the burn rate but is more a measure of the ambient
temperature in the upper burn area of the grill. Adding more charcoal or raising the charcoal
baskets will increase this temperature. While using less charcoal or lowering the charcoal
baskets will decrease the overall temperature.
