The mechanical components
Your grill is an engineered system of components. Here are diagrams of these components with their
functions explained:
Figure 3-1: Major components of the grill
3.1.
Cover
The cover is hand-finished stainless steel with a large vent to control airflow while barbecuing. The
professional quality 750° F cooking thermometer is inserted into a collet in the top of the cover and the
stem extends into the cooking chamber to give an accurate temperature reading. The thermometer
should be removed during periods of long storage to extend its useful life.
3.2.
Cooking grate
The cooking grate is hand-welded stainless. It has two hinge pins on the rear that drop into the slotted
brackets and pins on the front that support it in use. It’s easiest to open the front access door before you
lower the cooking grate into position. This will prevent pinching your fingers.
