OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD. Burning charcoal inside can kill you. It gives off carbon monoxide,
which has no odor. NEVER burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles or tents.
This grill has an adjustable charcoal tray. By turning the crank handle, the charcoal tray can be raised
or lowered to desired height. This allows for different heat settings depending on the food you are
cooking and the temperature at which you want to cook. It also allows easy cleaning of the interior of
the firebox after the unit has cooled down completely. It is not recommended to raise a fully loaded
charcoal tray higher than the middle height setting.
NOTE: The grate is coated with porcelain which is a fragile coating. Handle with care to avoid
damage. DO NOT cool the grate in cold water while it is still hot or the coating may crack. Let the
grate cool off by itself.
Charcoal Lighting Instructions
• Open grill top.
• Remove cooking grates.
• Adjust the preffered charcoal tray(s) to the center position, and place one even row of charcoal
briquettes in the tray.
• Make sure that charcoal does not go above the top of the tray.
• Light briquettes.
• Move charcoal tray(s) to the bottom position.
• With the top open, allow the briquettes to fully ignite (to the point where there is no further flame).
• Once the briquettes are lit, put the grates back in the grill using heat resistant gloves.
• Adjust charcoal tray as required to achieve the proper temperature.
Adjusting Temperature
• For maximum heat/temperature, open both side air vents located on the side of the main body as
required. To reduce the heat/temperature, close the air vents on the side of the main body.
NOTE: The temperature should not go above 500ºF(260°C). If the temperature goes above 500ºF
(260°C), you should open the lid and allow the briquettes to cool. The proper cooking temperature
should not exceed 500ºF (260°C).
Seasoning Unit
1. Before your first cooking you should season the unit to enhance the cooking and to provide better
overall durability. Failure to properly follow these steps may damage the finish and/or impart
metallic flavors to foods.
2. Remove all retail hangtags that are on the unit, making sure NOT to remove safety markings from
the unit.
3. Place one even row of charcoal briquettes in both charcoal trays. Make sure that charcoal does not
go above the top of the trays.
4. Coat interior surfaces with vegetable cooking oil.
5. Light briquettes and set charcoal tray at medium height by cranking the crank handle.
6. Sustain burn for about two hours with lid closed and all dampers to 1/4 of the way open. Allow the
unit to cool down properly.
7. Once this is completed, the unit is ready for use.
