Question
Answer
How do I remove
the auger if it
jams?
DANGER! Turn the Main Power switch OFF (O) and disconnect the power cord.
CAUTION! If the grill is still hot, allow it to cool thoroughly.
Remove any covers necessary to access the auger drive motor.
Remove the screw connecting the auger drive motor shaft to the auger shaft and the
screw retaining the auger bushing into the auger tube.
With a small pipe wrench or locking pliers on the auger shaft, turn the auger
counterclockwise. It will turn hard until it breaks free; then the auger will turn freely.
Remove the auger and clean all pellets, ash, or foreign objects from the auger,
auger tube, and firepot. (See instructions for proper handling and disposal of
ash on page 22.)
Sand the outside surfaces of the auger with medium grit sandpaper. Check the inside
of the auger tube and sand it if needed. Vacuum the sanding grit out of the auger tube
and firepot when finished. Check that the auger rotates freely.
Reattach the auger shaft to the auger drive motor shaft.
How do I protect
my paint finish?
Use the protective cover on the grill to protect your paint finish. A custom cover for
your grill is available for purchase at traegergrills.com.
Every 90 days, use a high-quality car wax on the outside surfaces of the grill.
ONLY APPLY WAX TO A COLD GRILL.
Where can I get a
new part for my
grill?
Check with your Traeger dealer. They
may have the part in stock or can
order the part for you.
In either case, please provide your name, phone
number, address, model, and serial number of
the grill (located on the label inside the hopper
lid), along with the part identification number
from the component diagram or parts list.
Contact Traeger’s VIP-365 Customer
Service (see page 27) to place an
order.
