Outside Surfaces; Cleaning Method - Pit Boss PLATINUM LAREDO 1000 PB1000PL Manual De Instrucciones

• It is recommended to clean your burn pot after every few uses. This will ensure proper ignition and avoid any hard
build-up of debris or ash in the burn pot.
• Check your grease bucket often, and clean out as necessary. Keep in mind the type of cooking you do.
IMPORTANT: Due to high heat, do not cover the flame broiler or probes with aluminum foil.
REPAIRING OR REPLACING THE AUGER MOTOR
The hopper includes a service door to allow for easy access to the auger motor. To
service, follow these steps:
1. Disconnect the unit from power. Empty the hopper of all pellets. Ensure the unit
is completely cooled.
2. Locate the service door on the side of the hopper. Rotate the fixed screw to open
the service door.
3. Unplug the wire connector (A) and loosen the left and right retaining screws (B).
4. Pull out the auger motor and auger flighting assembly together. Carefully repair
or replace the part. If pellets are stuck in the auger flighting, this is also a good
way to clear up the pellet obstruction.
5. Once maintenance is completed, re-install the auger flighting assembly and auger
motor into position, tighten the left and right retaining screws (B), and plug in the
wire connector (A). Close and secure the service door.

5. OUTSIDE SURFACES

• Wipe your grill down after each use. Use warm soapy water to cut the grease. Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive
cleansers, or abrasive cleaning pads on the outside grill surfaces. All painted surfaces are not covered under
warranty, but rather are part of general maintenance and upkeep. For paint scratches, wearing, or flaking of the
finish, all painted surfaces can be touched up using high heat BBQ paint.
• Use a grill cover to protect your grill for complete protection! A cover is your best protection against weather and
outside pollutants. When not in use or for longterm storage, keep the unit under a cover in a garage or shed.
