barrel. Using one of the last two of the screws provided, affix the stack stabilization bracket to the barrel.
Use the last self-tapping screw to affix the bracket to the side of the elbow (this metal is thinner than the
barrel and doesn’t need to be predrilled).
8.
Fit a piece of flue pipe onto the elbow exit.
9.
Fit the second piece of flue pipe onto the first piece of flue pipe.
10.
Step back and look at your stack. If the elbow seems loose, or the stack tends to list, you have the option of
driving the last self-drilling screw through the union of the elbow and flue takeoff to secure it in place.
11.
Place a layer of sand and/or ashes in the bottom of your barrel.
CAUTION:
failure to place an insulating
layer in the bottom of your barrel can result in catastrophic failure – the fire may burn right through your
barrel!
12.
Coat the exterior of the barrel with a thin layer of vegetable or olive oil (apply with a paper-towel or rag).
Voila! The
Sapling Firebox
, which forms the base of each of your
Sapling
’s three functions: grilling,
smoking, and baking!
Next, open the small box and follow the instructions on setting up the smoking and baking functions!
When you are done, you will have a grill that can do everything: grill, smoke and bake!
Maintaining your
Sapling
The best practice is to clean out the ash and oil the inside of your barrel with vegetable or olive oil when not in
use for extended periods of time, and, unless your
Sapling
can be stored in a garage or barn, you should cover it
when not in use. Consider purchasing the
Sapling Grill Cover
for this purpose. If water gets in your barrel, be
sure to dump it out, dry it out, and apply another layer of oil to discourage rust.
Expansion and contraction caused by heating, cooling and exposure to the elements may eventually cause some
cracking and/or flaking in the paint on your
Sapling
. If you notice this, after the barrel has cooled, sand the area
with 100 grit sandpaper and repaint with
Sapling Flat Black Paint
, or the equivalent.
Consider purchasing the
Sapling Care Package,
which includes everything you need for maintaining the
