MEAT PROBE
The grills meat probe will track the temperature of the food as it cooks without having open the grill lid several
times to test the food with an instant-read thermometer. The correct placement of the meat probe is especially
important when cooking at a higher heat as opposed to low and slow; because there is such a large difference
within just one inch of space in the food. When inserting the meat probe, avoid the bone because it will give
inaccurate readings. After inserting the probe, make sure it is secured into place. As the thermometer nears its
target temperature, spot-check other areas to see if they are also close. Be careful, the meat probe and its wires
are hot.
To use the meat probe, first follow the startup instructions in this manual. Bring the grill up to the desired temperature.
Once preheating is complete, place the meat onto the grill surface with the probe inserted into the best section
of meat. Plug the meat probe into the display panel and push the “Display” button until both the “Actual” and
“Setpoint” lights are not lit. The temperature shown on the display will be the internal meat temperature. Using the
meat probe will prevent the need of opening and checking the internal meat temperature, therefore preserving
heat and pellet usage.
Maintenance Schedule
Operation Interval
Clean drip pan After Each Use
Inspect and clean burn pot After Each Use
Inspect hopper for fines (sawdust) Biweekly
Ash removal After Each Use
Inspect and clean combustion air blower Annually
CLEAN DRIP PAN
Note: Allow the unit to cool to ambient temperature before inspecting or cleaning the grill.
1. Take out the main grilling surface.
2. Scrape drippings down the grease drain and into the grease bucket provided.
3. Clean the drip pan with a food-safe de-greasing agent and ensure all the cleaning solvents and chemicals
are thoroughly rinsed off after cleaning.
4. Empty the grease bucket if necessary.
5. Reinstall the grilling surface.
INSPECT AND CLEAN BURN POT
Note: Allow the unit to cool to ambient temperature before inspecting or cleaning the grill.
1. Remove the main grilling surface.
2. Inspect the burn pot to check that the combustion air holes have not become plugged. If necessary, clean
thoroughly.
3. Replace the flame plate, drip pan, and grilling surface.
INSPECT HOPPER FOR FINES
Note: Allow the unit to cool to ambient temperature before inspecting or cleaning the grill.
Periodically check the hopper for pellet dust (fines) build-up. The accumulation of fines can reduce the efficiency
of the grill, increase the chance of hopper fires, and other unsafe operating conditions. If dust (fines) accumulate
sufficiently, vacuum out and reload the hopper with new pellets.
ASH REMOVAL
Note: Allow the unit to cool to ambient temperature before inspecting or cleaning the grill.
1. Use an ash vacuum to remove ashes from the burn pot and the bottom of the grill’s body.
WARNING: BE SURE ALL ASH EMBERS ARE EXTINGUISHED AND ALL ASHES ARE COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE
VACUUMING.
2. Dispose of ashes into a metal container.
Failure to clean and maintain this unit as described in this manual may cause poor performance and hazardous
situations. Adjust the maintenance schedules based on the frequency of usage to ensure the proper operation
and maximum efficiency of this pellet grill. When performing any maintenance on this grill, make sure the unit has
powered off, allowed full shutdown sequence, and then unplugged from the power source.
