AUGER PRIMING PROCEDURE

First time using your grill or whenever your grill runs out of pellets in the hopper, you will need to prime the auger. If not primed,
the grill will timeout before the pellets are ignited, and no fire will start. Follow these steps to prime the auger:
1. Open the hopper lid. Make sure there are no foreign objects in the hopper or blocking the auger feed system.
2. Remove all cooking components from the interior of the grill. Locate the burn pot in the bottom of the pellet grill.
3. Plug the power cord into a power source.
4. Press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds to turn and initiate start-up.
• Check to make sure you hear the auger turning. Place your hand above the burn pot and feel for air movement. DO
NOT place your hands or fingers inside the burn pot, this can cause injury.
• After approximately a minute, you should smell the igniter burning and begin to feel the air getting warmer above
the burn pot. The igniter tip does not glow red but will get extremely hot and will burn. DO NOT touch the igniter.
5. Once verified that all electric components are working correctly, turn the grill off.
6. Fill the hopper with all natural hardwood barbecue pellets.
7. Press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds and navigate to the menu to prime.
8. Select the 5 second option and repeat until you see pellets drop from the auger into the burn pot. Now you can release
the Prime Button.
9. You now can turn your grill off. Please make sure you allow your grill to stay plugged in until it finishes the cool down
cycle. Once the fan turns off, the grill has completed the shutdown cycle, it is safe to unplug your grill.
10. Re-install the cooking components into the main barrel.
11. Your grill is now primed and ready to use! If this is the first time you are using your grill, you should perform a First Initial
Grill Burn-off.
FIRST USE – GRILL BURN-OFF
Once your auger has been primed and before cooking on your grill for the first time, it is important to complete a grill burn-off.
Start the grill and operate at any temperature over 176°C / 350°F (with the lid down) for 30 to 40 minutes to burn-off the grill
and rid it of any foreign matter.

AUTOMATIC START-UP PROCEDURE

1. Plug the power cord into a grounded power source. Open the main barrel lid. Check the burn pot to ensure there is no
obstruction for proper ignition. Check that the Igniter is positioned in the center of the auger tube, and that the Igniter
is protruding into the burn pot. Open the hopper lid. Ensure there are no foreign objects in the hopper or auger feed
system. Fill the hopper with dry, all natural barbecue hardwood pellets.
2. Check that the buckle latch on the bottom of the main barrel is fastened (locked) to secure the removable burn pot.
3. Press and hold the Power Button for three seconds to turn the unit on. This will activate the start-up cycle. The auger
feed system will begin to turn, and the fan will supply air to the burn pot. The grill will begin to produce smoke while the
start-up cycle is taking place. The barrel lid must remain open during the start-up cycle. To confirm the start-up cycle has
begun properly, listen for a torchy roar, and notice some heat being produced.
4. Once the heavy, white smoke has dissipated, the start-up cycle is complete and you are ready to enjoy your grill at your
desired temperature!

SHUTTING OFF YOUR GRILL

When the main barrel lid is closed, Press and hold the Power Button for three seconds to Power-down the unit. The grill will begin
its automatic cool-down cycle and the Shutting Down screen will appear on the controller. The auger system will stop feeding
fuel, the flame will burn out, and the fan will continue to run until the cool-down cycle is complete.
IMPORTANT! Once the shut-down cycle is complete, unplug the power cord.
