Smoke Adjusting Bar; Care & Maintenance; Burner Components - Pit Boss COMPETITION Série Manuel De L'utilisateur

To control the amount of smoke, as well as the overall cooking temperature, pull open the Smoke Adjusting Bar, located between
the Pellet and Gas Main Barrels.
Any Pit Boss® unit will give you many years of flavorful service with minimum cleaning. Follow these cleaning and maintenance
tips to service your grill:
1. CHECKING THE GAS LEVEL
• To check the amount of fuel in the LP gas cylinder, the grill must be in operation. Place your hand at the top of the
tank and slowly move down the side until the tank feels cool to the touch. This will indicate the approximate amount
of gas in your tank; if ¾ empty, replace with full tank.
IMPORTANT: Do not use charcoal briquettes or any flammable material with your grill. Use of such material
will void your warranty and may lead to a fire, explosion and bodily harm.

2. BURNER COMPONENTS

• Clean the burner whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects)
on the burner tube or in the burner portholes. After periods of storage, spiders or small insects can build nests,
webs, and lay eggs in the burner tube, obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. If storing the grill or before
an extended period of non-use, remove the burner and wrap with aluminum foil to reduce the risk of insects
entering the burner holes.
• The burner has been preset for optimal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a small yellow tip, is the
result of the optimal air and gas mixture. If flames are excessively yellow, orange or irregular, clean the oil and food
deposits on the burner surface and the burner portholes to increase airflow.
