Care & Maintenance; Hopper Assembly - Pit Boss PLATINUM BRUNSWICK PBV5PL Instrucciones Y Recetas

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. ASH CLEAN-OUT
• On the Front Panel is an ash cleanout feature, giving you easy access to cleaning
the ashes from the Burn pot. To empty, press down on the inner handle of the Ash
Clean-out Tray, then pull out the Tray by sliding it out of the unit. Once emptied,
replace the Ash Clean-out Tray by sliding it back into the opening on the Panel.
Ensure it is inserted completely.
WARNING: This feature can only be operated when the grill is cooled down.

2. HOPPER ASSEMBLY

• Running all pellets out of your auger system is recommended if your grill will be unused for an extended period
of time. This can be done by simply running your grill, on an empty hopper, until all pellets have emptied from the
auger tube.
• Check and clean off any debris from the fan air intake vent, found on the bottom of the hopper. Once the hopper
access panel is removed (see Electric Wire Diagram for diagram), carefully wipe off any grease build-up directly on
the fan blades. This ensures airflow is sufficient to the feed system.
HOPPER CLEAN-OUT FEATURE
The hopper includes a clean-out feature to allow for easy cleaning and the ability to
change out wood pellet fuel flavors. To empty, follow these steps:
1. Locate the clean-out door on the back side of the hopper.
2. Place a clean, empty pail under the clean-out door. Loosen the Door Knob slightly
to release the door latch. Rotate the door latch upwards to open the door, allowing
the pellets from the hopper to empty.
3. Once empty, rotate the door latch back onto the Door Knob. Tighten the Door
Knob to secure.
NOTE: Use a long handled brush or shop-vac to remove excess pellets, sawdust,
and debris for a complete clean-out through the hopper screen.
3. PROBES
• Kinks or folds in the probe wires may cause damage. A meat probe not in use should be rolled up in a large, loose coil.
• Although both the grill probe and the meat probes are stainless steel, do not place in the dishwasher or submerge
in water. Water damage to the internal wires will cause a probe to short-out, causing false readings. If a probe is
damaged, it should be replaced.
