SECTION FIVE: MAINTAINING
YOUR NEW GRILL
1) CREOSOTE AND GREASE: Formation and need for removal.
When wood pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar and other organic vapors that
combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the
relatively cool flue exhaust of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote accumulates on the
flue lining. When ignited, creosote makes an extremely hot fire. Airborne grease particles
will travel through the cooking chamber and some of this airborne grease will accumulate on
the flue lining, similar to the creosote, which could be contributory to a fire.
The flue exhaust should be inspected at least twice a year to determine when a creosote
and/or grease buildup has occurred.
Also, grease drippings from the food will fall onto the Grease Drain Pan and be channeled
into the Grease Drain and then out of the Grill through the Grease Drain Tube, to be
collected in the Grease Bucket. Grease will accumulate in all of these locations.
The Grease Drain, the Grease Drain Tube and the Grease Bucket should be inspected at
least twice a year for signs of grease buildup.
When creosote or grease has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of fire.
Cleaning Grease from your Grill:
DANGER! Turn the Switch OFF (o) and disconnect the Power Cord.
CAUTION! Accumulated grease is easier to clean off when the Grill is still warmnot hot.
Be careful not to burn yourself. Gloves are recommended.
Periodically, clean the grease out of the Drain Pan Assembly and Grease Drain Tube. If too
much grease is allowed to build up in the Grease Drain Tube, or is allowed to plug the
Grease Drain Tube, a grease fire could result. We recommend cleaning these locations
regularly.
Remove the Porcelain Grills and the Grease Drain Pan and the Heat Baffle. Wipe up any
remaining grease residue inside the Grill Frame with paper towels or disposable rags. Paper
towels or disposable rags can also be used to wipe some of the grease off of the interior
surfaces of the Grill.
Line your Grease Bucket with aluminum foil for easy clean-up. Empty it occasionally,
depending on amount of use. Change the aluminum foil on the Grease Drain Pan frequently
(sometimes, after each use, depending upon what was cooked). Clean foil on the Grease
Drain Pan will make your food taste better and reduce the risk of a grease fire.
