WHY DOES MY GRILL FIRE GO OUT ON “SMOKE” SETTING?
Excess ash in the Firepot may be the problem.
1) Open the Door and remove the Porcelain Grill, Grease Drain Pan Assembly from inside the
Grill.
2) IMPORTANT: Remove all unburned Pellets and ash from inside and around the
Firepot. A shop-vac is ideal for this task CAUTION! ASSURE THAT THE GRILL IS COLD
TO AVOID A FIRE FROM HOT ASH.
3) Replace the Grease Drain Pan Assembly and the Porcelain Grill and initiate start-up
procedure.
4) If this didn’t remedy the problem, contact Traeger Technical Support (SECTION SEVEN)
for additional troubleshooting help.
THE AUGER MAKES A LOT OF NOISE WHEN I TURN THE GRILL ON AND I HAVE
NOTICED A DROP IN THE GRILL TEMPERATURE. WHAT CAN I DO TO CORRECT THIS?
In Grill models with a fixed Auger Drive Motor, you will need to “TRUE” the Auger
1) Remove all Pellets from the Pellet Hopper and run Pellets out of the Auger Tube.
2) Remove the screw connecting the Auger Drive Motor shaft to the Auger shaft, using a 7/64
hex wrench and a 5/16 wrench or driver.
3) Spin the Auger shaft over the Auger Drive Motor shaft. It should rotate freely, without
binding.
4) If the Auger shaft binds, loosen the two bolts mounting the Auger Drive Motor/Bracket
assembly to the Burner Box with a 7/16 wrench.
5) Move the Auger Drive Motor/Bracket assembly until you can feely rotate the Auger shaft
over the Auger Drive Motor shaft.
6) Re-tighten the 7/16 bolts ensuring that the Auger End Piece Shaft still rotates freely over
the Auger Drive Motor shaft.
7) Reinstall the screw and nut connecting the Auger Drive Motor shaft to the Auger shaft.
WITH THE TRAEGER DIGITAL CONTROL, WHAT DIAL SETTING IS RECOMMENDED
FOR STARTING THE GRILL?
The auto-start procedure is the same for all Grill Controls. With the Door open, turn the
Switch/Dial ON and Temperature Dial to SMOKE. In approximately 2 minutes you will
notice whitish-gray smoke coming out of the Grill as the Pellets ignite. After assuring the
Pellets have ignited, close the Door and set the Temperature Dial to any cooking setting
desired.
HOW DO I PROTECT MY PAINT FINISH?
1) Use a protective Cover on the Grill and touch-up paint to repair any scratches. A
TRAEGER GRILL COVER to protect the Grill is highly recommended! Covers and
touch-up paint are available from your local Traeger Dealer, or log on to our Web Site
– www.traegergrills.com.
2) Every 90 days, use a high quality car wax on the outside surfaces of the Grill. ONLY
APPLY WAX TO A COLD GRILL.
WHERE CAN I GET A NEW PART FOR MY GRILL?
Check with your Traeger Dealer. They may have the part in stock or can order the part for you.
Or you can contact the Traeger Parts Department (SECTION SEVEN) to place an order. In
either case, please provide your name, phone number, address, Model and Serial Number of
the Grill (located on a label inside the Hopper Lid), along with the part.
