Keep a minimum clearance of 10 feet (3 m) from the sides,
front and back of appliance to ANY construction. Keep the
area clear of all combustible material and flammable liquids,
including wood, dry plants and grass, brush, paper, and
canvas.
6. This product is not intended for commercial use.
7. Always allow the appliance to cool before covering with the

12. In the event of a fire the dial should be turned to shutdown,
close the lid, and leave it closed until the fire goes out. After
allowing the grill to cool, follow the cleaning instructions
before the next use.
13. Use only food grade hardwood pellets manufactured for use in
pellet grills. Using softwood or heating pellets will void your
warranty.
14. Do not allow the hopper to run out of pellets. Pellets can
be added at any time. The hopper will hold approximately
15 pounds of pellets. The pellet usage will vary greatly
depending on the ambient temperature as well as
cooking temperature.
15. It is recommended that you not store pellets in the hopper for
extended periods as they may absorb moisture from the air
and clog the auger.
16. Keep the lid closed during cooking. The grill is designed
to cook with the lid closed.
17. Do not use accessories not specified for use with appliance.
18. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene,
charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or freshen up
a fire in this appliance. Keep all such liquids well away from
the appliance when in use.
19. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non combustible floor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
When the ashes are disposed by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
DANGER
Do not work on this grill if it is plugged in. Electric shock may
occur resulting in death or serious injury.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

when doing this so be careful not to damage the lids. The grill
may also want to roll on its lid so one person should hold the
grill steady while the other person assembles the bottom legs
and wheels.

Bolts and Qty (6) Lock washers. Note that the longer leg must
go closest to the hopper. Finger tighten hardware.
2. Assemble Qty (2) leg brackets onto the legs as shown in
Fig 2 using Qty (4) M6 x 45 Bolts, Qty (4) M6 Flat Washers,
Qty (4) M6 Lock Washers, and Qty (4) M6 Nuts. Finger
tighten hardware.

BURNER CLEAN-OUT
Every 20 hours of use, remove the grill grates, grease tray, and
heat deflector and clean the inside of the grill using a vacuum.
If you notice a lot of ash blowing around in the grill it is time to
vacuum it out.
FILLING THE AUGER TUBE
The first time you use your grill or any time the hopper has ran out
of pellets you will need to fill the auger tube. This simply means
you must fill the auger tube with pellets until pellets reach the
burner. This is done by turning the dial to the FEED position. The
auger will remain on for no more than 7 minutes. This is ample
time for the pellets to reach the burner. Once you hear pellets
dropping into the burner you can select your cooking temperature.
CONTROLLER EXPLANATION
POWER SWITCH
Used to turn the main power onto the pellet grill. The fan will be
on whenever the power switch is on. The dial must be rotated to
any of the other positions before the grill will start. If the power is
turned on with the dial in any other position than Shutdown the
grill will immediately start that function. “O” is Off. “-“ is On. See
Fig. 9
DIAL POSITIONS
SHUTDOWN -This setting must be used after each use. Turn
the dial to this setting and the fan will remain on. Wait for 10
minutes to allow the grill to finish burning any pellets in the
burner before turning the main power switch off. This setting will
burn up any extra pellets in the burner and cool down the grill. Do
not turn the main power switch off when the grill is hot.
FEED - This setting is used to feed pellets to the hopper. It will
be used the first time you use the grill to fill the auger tube and
any time you may inadvertently run the hopper out of pellets.
See instructions on filling the auger tube.
LOW SMOKE - This setting is used for smoking foods at an
average temperature of 160F. This setting will produce large
amounts of smoke.
HIGH SMOKE - This setting is used for smoking foods at an
average temperature of 220F. This setting will produce large
amounts of smoke.
175F TO 400F - There are 25F increment settings from 175F
to 400F. You can simply select any temperature you want
and the grill will control the temperature within 15F of the
selected temperature.
HIGH - This setting can be used to achieve temperatures up to
500F depending on ambient temperatures.
DISPLAY
LED FLASHING GREEN – The LED will flash green each time the
dial is changed from the OFF, SHUTDOWN, or FEED settings, to
any of the cook settings indicating that the grill is in the startup
cycle.
LED GREEN – A green LED light indicates that the grill in
functioning normally in any of the cook settings.
RED LED – The LED will be red when the dial is turned to the
shutdown mode or the flame is extinguished in any of the cook
settings.
LED Flashing Red – The LED will flash Red if there is an error
with the temperature sensor inside of the grill.
BREAKING IN THE GRILL
We suggest turning the grill to 350F for ½ hour before
cooking on the grill for the first time. This will burn off any
manufacturing oils and cure the paint. Make sure to follow
the instructions for filling the auger tube before breaking in
the grill.
