STEP 5
You can now remove the (
white plastic
) shipping retainer bar/s (
Large units have (2) one on each side of the hinge assembly, Medium
& small units have (1))
from the side/s of the hinge mechanism (
illustration A
) by cutting the plastic cable tie/s that hold it in place and then pull
or gently pry the bar off the bolt heads.
DO NOT OPEN THE DOME WITHOUT REMOVING THE SHIPPING RETAINER BARS OR
DAMAGE COULD OCCUR.
The shipping retainer bars hold the hinge assembly at the neutral / balance point and provide proper band
spacing, we recommend that you keep them for future reinstallation in the event you may need to remove or adjust the Spring Assisted Band.
Congratulations, you have completed the hinge / band installation. Periodically lubricate the (8) pivot points (
illustration C
) on the hinge
mechanism and it will provide you many years of trouble free service. Thank you for your purchase; this product was designed & manufactured
in the U.S.A. exclusively for Big Green Egg.
Important: Once again, please keep the band carriage bolts properly tightened as instructed in step 4, or the egg dome
could slip out of the bands and fall to the ground. This could result in dome breakage or possible personal injury.
