FIRST TIME START UP
Follow these instructions to make sure your Pellet Grill is run-
ning properly the first time you start to cook.
1. Inspection – This is a quick check to make sure your grill’s
components are working properly… be sure to observe only
and not touch the auger, igniter or fans.
Do not put pellets into the hopper at this time.
a. Remove warming racks, grates and baffle.
b. Plug the grill into a GFCI protected outlet (rated at 15
amps) and power the grill on using the power switch
on the Pit Control panel.
c. Look in the hopper to ensure that the auger is clear.
d.Turn the control knob to the LOW grill setting, allow to
run for 3 minutes and:
• Look into hopper to confirm that the auger is turn -
ing.
• Listen for the blower fan. You should also be able
to feel air moving out of the firepot.
• Look to see that the ignitor is glowing red inside the
firepot. Allow up to 5 minutes.
C A U T I O N
• DO NOT touch the ignitor rod.
• Make sure the ash cup is tightly screwed on
e. Turn knob to SHUTDOWN position.
2. Priming – Before cooking with your pellet grill you must run
a priming cycle to fill the auger tube with pellets, to provide a
steady stream of fuel during use.
a. Fill the hopper with Oklahoma Joe’s wood pellets.
NOTE: Avoid pouring pellet dust into the hopper as it can
potentially jam the auger.
b. Turn the control knob to the LOW grilling setting and
run for about 5 minutes.
c. Look and listen for pellets falling from the auger tube
into the fire pot. When that happens, you’ll know the
auger tube is full and ready to go.
d. Turn knob to SHUTDOWN position.
e. Replace baffle, grates and warming racks.
3. SEASONING - Seasoning your smoker before cooking will
burn off any manufacturing residues, protect your grill surfac-
es, and create the beginning of a cooked-in surface treatment
that will add to the flavor of your smoked meats, cook after
cook.
a. Turn the control knob to the LOW grilling setting.
b. Make sure your pellets are igniting:
• Wait for preheat cycle to complete - you’ll see the
letters PRE on the display shift to an actual temp
reading when its finished.
• Look for smoke exiting the exhaust stacks.
• Watch for the temperature to rise.
c. Run for 30 minutes.
d. When complete, turn the control knob to SHUTDOWN
position and allow the shutdown burn to complete.
e. Now you’re ready to cook!
SHUTDOWN BURN
This is a process that automatically runs once you turn the
control knob to the SHUTDOWN position and must be allowed
to complete before powering down your pellet grill. The shut -
down burn runs the blower fan in order to burn through any
remaining pellets in the firepot. This prepares the grill for your
next use and should be run EVERY TIME you cook.
NOTE: Once you turn the knob to the SHUTDOWN position,
you will have a 3 second grace period before the shutdown
burn starts in case you change your mind.
NOTE: The combustion fan will continue running for approx -
imately ten minutes to burn off any excess pellets in the fire
pot, and the controller and fan will shut down. Do not unplug
the power cord until the combustion fan stops.
SUBSEQUENT START UPS – after running a priming cycle
and doing a seasoning burn, startups are a breeze.
1. Power the grill on using the power switch on the Pit
Control panel.
2. Turn control knob to the desired set temperature.
3. Allow Preheat cycle to complete.
4. Add food!
5. When finished, always remember to run the Shutdown
Burn before powering your grill off.
BURN OFF
If you are doing a lot of low temperature cooking, there is po -
tential for grease build up due to lower temperatures. To man -
age that grease potential build up, run a high heat burn off
every couple of smoking sessions. To do a Burn Off, simply run
your pellet grill on the HIGH grilling temp for 20 minutes after
you’ve finished smoking. The high temperatures achieved will
vaporize grease lingering on the heat baffles before it builds
up to a hazardous level.
