NOTE: Do not tighten any screws completely until all screws have
been installed. Once all screws are installed, then tighten securely.
IMPORTANT: Avoid using the side shelves to move or lift the grill.
The weight of the unit will cause the side shelf to break, which is not
covered by warranty.
10. INSTALLING THE COOKING COMPONENTS
Parts Required:
2 x Cooking Grids
(#2)
1 x Upper Cooking Rack
(#1)
1 x Flame Broiler Main Plate
(#8)
1 x Flame Broiler Slider
(#7)
Installation:
• Insert the flame broiler main plate into the main grill. Rest the flame
broiler main plate on the built-in ledge (on the inside right) of the
main grill that directs grease towards the grease bucket. Slide the
entire piece to the left side, and the two slots on the flame broiler
main plate will fit into the rounded ledge above the burn pot. It will
sit slightly at a downward angle. Note illustration 10A.
NOTE: If the main plate is on the base of the barrel, it is installed incorrectly.
• Place the flame broiler slider on top of the flame broiler main plate,
covering the slotted openings. Ensure the raised tab is on the left, to easily
adjust for direct or indirect flame when cooking. Note illustration 10B.
NOTE: When the flame broiler slider is open, and direct flame is used
while cooking, do not leave the grill unattended for any period of time.
• Place the cooking grids, side-by-side, on the grid ledge inside the main
grill. Place the upper cooking rack on the upper ledge inside the main
grill. The cooking rack will lock into place.
• The unit is now completely assembled.
NOTE: To maintain the searing and grilling performance of your
cooking grids, regular care and maintenance Is required.
11. CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
NOTE: Before plugging your Pit Boss into any electrical outlet, ensure
the temperature dial is in the OFF position.
•
STANDARD OUTLET
This appliance requires 110 volt, 60hz, 275w, 5 amp service. It must be a
3-prong grounded plug. Ensure grounded end is not broken off before
use. The control uses a 5 amp, 120 volt, fast-blow fuse to protect the
board from the igniter.
•
GFCI OUTLETS
This appliance will work on most GFCI outlets, with a recommended
size of 15 amp service. If your GFCI outlet is highly sensitive to power
surges, it will likely trip during the start-up phase of operation. During
the start-up phase, the igniter draws 200-700 watts of electricity
which can be too much power for a GFCI outlet to handle. Each time it
trips, it increases in sensitivity. If the GFCI keeps tripping, replace the
outlet or change to a non-GFCI outlet.
