General Safety Instructions
1. For Outdoor Use Only.
2. Coyote grills are only intended for residential use and are not intended for commercial use, where anyone
other than the original purchaser (homeowner) would be using and maintaining the grill.
3. NEVER use indoors or in any type of enclosed area, such as a garage, shed or breezeway. Keep clear of
trees and shrubs. The grills are not intended for installation in or on recreational vehicles, portable trailers,
boats or any other moving installation.
4. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from breathing toxic fumes and from explosion and fire as a
result of burning pellets, use only outdoors in an open area with good ventilation. NEVER obstruct the
flow of combustion and ventilation air.
5. Fire Hazard: The area surrounding your new grill should be kept clean and free from flammable liquids
and other combustible materials such as mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning fluids, lighter
fluid and gasoline.
6. NEVER use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop,
etc.), a wind break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances listed in this Manual.
7. NEVER leave the grill unattended while cooking.
8. Do not use lighter fluid in a pellet grill.
9. NEVER allow children to use or play near the grill. Keep children and pets away from a hot grill at all times
10. Installation and any repairs or replacement of parts should be performed by a qualified service technician.
If you are not qualified to install, repair, or replace parts of your grill, please retain a qualified professional
contractor or technician to do so.
11. Burn Hazard: NEVER lean over an open grill. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near
the grill. Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or long sleeves while using the grill as some fabrics can be highly
flammable and, if ignited, may result in personal injury or death.
12. Burn Hazard: When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, or immediate surroundings as
these areas become extremely hot and can cause burns. Always use a covered/gloved hand when opening
the grill hood and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.
13. ALWAYS: have an ABC fire extinguisher accessible.
14. NEVER attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids as this may cause a flashback that
could result in personal injury or death.
15. NEVER use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or the drip trays, this can alter airflow for proper
combustion and also build up heat in the control area causing the display to malfunction.
16. NEVER allow grease or other hot material to drip from the grill onto the electrical supply cord. If that
occurs, unplug the power supply immediately. After the grill has cooled, determine the cause of the
3
dripping and correct it. If damage to the power supply is discovered, call a qualified technician for service.
17. NEVER heat any unopened glass or metal container of food on the grill. Pressure may build up and cause
the container to burst, possibly resulting in death, serious personal injury, or property damage.
18. ALWAYS: Keep any electrical supply cords away from water or heated surfaces. Electrical cords should be
placed away from walkways to avoid tripping hazard.
19. ALWAYS: Keep electrical supply cords as short as possible.
20. NEVER move the grill when hot.
21. NEVER use grill while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
22. Fire Hazard: NEVER grill without the drip trays in place; hot grease could leak downward and produce a
fire or an explosion. Drip tray should be pushed all the way to the rack located just under the grill.
23. Fire Hazard: Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or
dispose of it. After use and cool-down, the drip trays should be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free of
grease.
24. ALWAYS: Turn off power off when your grill is not in use.
25. ALWAYS: Unplug the grill when not in use.
26. ALWAYS: Use only a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) protected circuit with this outdoor cooking appliance.

Locating the Grill
Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. If an external electrical source is utilized,
this outdoor cooking appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, 1990 or latest version.
• Before installing built-in grills in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number, serial
number and store information in a safe place.
• If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he or she shows you where your
electrical supply shut-off is located.
Notice: We strongly recommend professional installation of your Coyote grill. These instructions provide the
measurements necessary to construct a masonry structure to house your outdoor pellet grill.
LOCATION OF YOUR GRILL:
Locate the grill only OUTSIDE in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway,
shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. When in use, the grill will
generate a lot of smoke. When installing your grill, select an outdoor location that will ensure there is adequate
area for the smoke to dissipate IN ORDER TO AVOID INHALATION OF POTENTIALLY TOXIC FUMES.
Ventilation Requirements for Proper Operation of your Coyote Grill
• Ventilation for a pellet grill is absolutely mandatory to ensure that your grill performs as intended and
to ensure the safety of you, your family, and guests. Proper ventilation is necessary to allow heat
inside your grill to escape.
• Failure to provide proper ventilation will nullify Coyote’s warranty and will cause a risk of bodily injury
or death.
• If you elect to install your grill into an island, the island itself must be ventilated properly. Any such
island must have a minimum of 2 vents (but optimally 4 vents) per cabinet. Each vent must be at least
20 sq. in in size and have access to outside/fresh air. Those vents will allow heat that is trapped inside
due to wind to be able to dissipate out of the island vents. However, if the island is not ventilated
properly and the wind is coming from the back, then the heat will try to escape through the easiest
exit, which will most likely be through the bottom of the grill and front control panel.
• A simple way to think of what is occurring inside your grill is that when your burners are on, they are
emitting a flame that creates the heat to cook your food. This heat must exhaust or escape from the
grill, otherwise you would eventually have a unit that would not only build up intense heat but also
dangerous pressure. This could cause severe damage to not only the grill but any operators or people
or property near-by. The grill itself allows for ventilation mainly through the rear of the unit above the
rear panel but below the top of the hood. However, wind can act as a barrier to ventilation and
exhaust. This blockage of exhaust can cause problems and hazardous conditions. Therefore, great care
must be taken in selecting a location for your grill and in the installation of it into any masonry island
or other outdoor structure. This can cause the control panel to get hot to the touch and possibly even
burn your fingers.
• Ventilation and typical wind direction and conditions must always be considered when planning your
8
outdoor cooking island. Just the same as you would plan the layout and measure your indoor kitchen,
you must also do the same for the outdoors; but you cannot forget about Mother Nature and the
effects she can have on your outdoor cooking equipment.
o Coyote Wind Guards: If you do run into a situation where you will have wind coming into the
back of the unit, the built in wind guard will help reduce the risks of overheating in the event
of ventilation interference. Our Wind Guards should never be considered as a guaranteed
solution to this problem. They are only intended to help the wind divert up and over the top of
the grill. If the wind is strong, then you can still have problems with the heat being trapped in
the hood. Coyote Wind Guards can be purchased through any of our authorized dealers.
Clearance:
• FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS: Coyote grills can be placed directly on, or adjacent to,
non-combustible materials, subject to ventilation requirements. The hood on a Coyote grill pivots
mainly on the body. If you have a wall or partition behind the unit that would block ventilation, then a
minimum of 7" clearance from the back of the grill to the wall is needed for the purpose of ventilation.
If you do not have a wall or partition blocking the ventilation of the unit, then you only need an extra 3
¼” behind the unit for the hood to open fully.
• FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS: Coyote grills must have at least 12" clearance from any combustible
materials (in any direction) for the safety of the homeowner and for any Coyote Warranty to remain in
effect.
o You CANNOT locate the grill under any combustible material without an approved ventilation
system located directly above the unit. To elaborate, Coyote defines an approved ventilation
hood as:
The ventilation hood chosen must be UL certified, produced for outdoor use and must be
installed according to the hood manufacturer’s specifications.
The hood must be installed at least 30" above the top of the cooking surface.
The hood must be at least 6" wider that the grills frame (3" on each side), not just the cooking
surface.
• INSULATED JACKETS AND COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: If you elect to use combustible material to
build your grill island AND the grill will be located within 12" of the combustible material, then you
must use the appropriate Coyote insulated jacket. The insulated jacket will act as a barrier to protect
your grill island from the heat and fire of your Coyote grill. If an insulated jacket is not used in a
combustible material island, the warranty on the Coyote grill will be voided immediately and safety
cannot be ensured.
For Built-in Installations
A built-in grill is designed for easy installation into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications, the
grill drops into the opening and hangs from the grill body itself. A bottom deck is not required to support the
grill from the bottom. It is also required that:
• A minimum of two ventilation holes in the enclosure, of at least 20 sq. inches in size (per vent), must
be present.
• The counter should be flat and level relative to the floor.
9
High Elevation Installation and Use
Two vents on each side will facilitate and improve airflow and ventilation.
Coyote Grills are designed to operate most efficiently at 0-2000 feet above sea level. From 2000-4000 feet above sea
level you will not notice any substantial decrease in your heat. Above 4000 feet, you may experience longer cooking
times on your grill than experienced at sea level. If you have questions or concerns regarding your location or
elevation, please contact Coyote Customer Service for assistance.
