1.
Remove any debris from the combustion air fan intake. Use compressed air to remove dust and debris from
both fans.

Inspect and clean the pellet hopper area. The interior hopper surface can be wiped down using warm
water and detergent. To protect the surface and promote smooth pellet feeding, coat surface with car wax.
3.

Check and clean any debris within the hopper housing.
•
Check and clean any debris in the fan blades or housing.
•
Check and clean any debris from the auger motor.

Upon inspection (and any required maintenance) replace all screws. Hand start each screw to ensure
proper threading.
GREASE MANAGEMENT AREA AND BUCKET
Always be sure the grease catch area is clean and free of debris; empty the grease bucket regularly.

Use a stiff brush to remove any build-up on the inside walls of your grill. Inspect and clean the inside of
the lid, the heat diffuser/drip tray and the inside walls of the cooking chamber.
2.
When your grill is cool to the touch, use a shop vacuum to thoroughly clean the cooking chamber, firebox
and hopper assembly.
3.
Use a citrus based cleaning solution to thoroughly clean the inside of the grill.

Finally, visually inspect the painted surfaces and touch up any scratches with high heat black paint.
