WARNING: Please read the entire manual before installation and use of this electric, pellet fuel burning appliance.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Contact local building or fire
officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.
SAFETY LISTING
In accordance with the procedures and specifications listed in the UL Subject 2728-2009 "pellet fuel cooking appliances"
and ULC/ORD C2728-13 "for electrical features of fuel burning equipment." Pit Boss® Grills pellet cooking appliances have
been independently tested and listed by Intertek (an accredited testing laboratory) to ETL standards.
PROPOSITION 65 - CALIFORNIA
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including wood dust, which is known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and carbon monoxide, which is known to the State of California to cause birth
defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to .65..
DANGERS AND WARNINGS
You must contact your local home association, building or fire officials, or authority having jurisdiction, to obtain the
necessary permits, permissions, or information on any installation restrictions, such as any grill being installed on a
combustible surface, inspection requirements, or even ability to use, in your area.
1. A minimum clearance of 305mm (12 inches) from combustible constructions to the sides of the grill, and 305mm (12 inches) from
the back of the grill to combustible constructions must be maintained. Do not install appliance on combustible floors, or
floors protected with combustible surfaces unless proper permits and permissions are obtained by authorities having
jurisdiction. Do not use this appliance indoors, in an enclosed or unventilated area, inside homes, vehicles, tents, garages. This
hardwood pellet appliance must not be placed under overhead combustible ceiling or overhang. Keep your grill in an area clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
WARNING: Be aware of building combustible material, maintain the fire to avoid over-firing. Should a grease fire occur,
turn the grill OFF and leave the lid closed until the fire is out. Unplug the power cord. Do not throw water on the unit.
Do not try to smother the fire. Use of an all-class (class ABC) approved fire extinguisher is valuable to keep on site. If an
uncontrolled fire does occur, call the Fire Department.
2. Keep electrical supply cords and the fuel away from heated surfaces. Do not use your grill in the rain or around any water source. If
the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similar qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard.

ENGLISH
3. After a period of storage, or non-use, check the Burn Pot for obstructions, the hopper for foreign objects, and any air blockage
around the fan intake or chimney. Clean before use. Regular care and maintenance is required to prolong the lifespan of your unit. If
the grill is stored outside during the rainy season or seasons of high humidity, care should be taken to insure that water
does not get into the hopper. When wet or exposed to high humidity, hardwood pellets will expand greatly, decompose, and may
jam the feed system. Always disconnect the power, before performing any service or maintenance.
IMPORTANT! Always power off the appliance and allow the shut-down cycle to run. Unplug the appliance only once the
shut-down cycle is complete, and/or before cleaning. Failure to follow this warning can cause damage, serious injury, fire,
electric shock, or death.
WARNING: Do not transport your grill while in use or while the grill is hot. Ensure the fire is completely out and that the
grill is completely cool to the touch before moving.
4. It is recommended to use heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves when operating the grill. Do not use accessories not specified for
use with this appliance. Do not put a barbecue cover or anything flammable in the storage space area under the barbecue.
5. To prevent fingers, clothing, or other objects from coming in contact with the auger feed system, the appliance is equipped with a
metal safety screen, mounted to the interior of the hopper. This screen must not be removed unless directed by Customer Care or
an authorized dealer.
WARNING: This appliance is not recommended for children, persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are under direct supervision or instruction by a person responsible for
their safety.
6. Parts of the barbecue may be very hot, and serious injury may occur. Keep young children and pets away while in use.
7. Do not enlarge igniter holes or burn pot. Failure to follow this warning could lead to a fire hazard and bodily harm and will void your
warranty.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible
floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. When ashes are disposed by burial in soil, or
otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in a closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
HARDWOOD PELLET FUEL
This pellet cooking appliance is designed and approved for pelletized, all natural wood fuel only. Any other type of fuel burned in
this appliance will void the warranty and safety listing. You must only use all natural hardwood pellets, designed for burning in pellet
barbecue grills. Do not use fuel with additives. Hardwood pellets are highly susceptible to moisture and should always be stored in an
airtight container. If you are storing your grill, without use, for an extended period, we recommend clearing all pellets from your grill's
hopper and auger, to prevent jams. The pellet fuel mean heating value in 8000-8770 BTU/LB, ash content < 1%.
WARNING: Do not use spirit, petrol, gasoline, lighter-fluid, or kerosene for lighting or refreshing a fire in your grill. Keep all
such liquids well away from the appliance when in use.
At the time of printing, there is no industry standard for barbecue hardwood pellets, although most pellet mills use the same standards
to make hardwood pellets for domestic use. Further information, can be found at www.pelletheat.org or the Pellet Fuel Institute.
Contact your local dealer on the quality of pellets in your area, and for information on brand quality. As there is no control over the quality
of pellets used, moisture affected pellets, we assume no responsibility to damage caused by poor quality of fuel.
CREOSOTE
Creosote - formation, and need for removal. When burning, it produces black smoke with a residue that is also black in color. When hard-
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 a relatively cool oven flue and exhaust hood of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates
on the flue lining and exhaust hood. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
The grease duct should be inspected at least twice a year to determine when the grease and/or creosote buildup has occurred. When
grease or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of fire.

CARBON MONOXIDE
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas produced by burning gas, wood, propane, charcoal, or other fuel. Carbon monoxide
reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in headaches, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting,
sleepiness, confusion, loss of consciousness, or death. Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you,
your family, or others:
See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while cooking or in the vicinity of the appliance. Carbon monoxide
poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold or flu, is often detected too late.
Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly, smokers, and people with blood or circu-
latory system problems, such as anemia, or heart disease.

OPERATION
SETTING UP
1. With all outdoor appliances, outside weather conditions play a big
part in the performance of your grill and the cooking time needed
to perfect your meals. This appliance must not be placed under an
overhead combustible ceiling or overhang (A). Keep your grill in an
area clear from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flamma-
ble vapors and liquids.
All Pit Boss® units should keep a minimum clearance of 305mm
(12 inches) from combustible constructions and this clearance
must be maintained while the grill is operational. (B)
2. Parts are located throughout the shipping carton, including under-
neath the grill. Inspect the grill, parts, and hardware blister pack
after removing from the protective shipping carton. Discard all
packaging materials from inside and outside of the grill before as-
sembly, then review and inspect all parts by assembly guide.
If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to assem-
ble. Contact your dealer or Pit Boss® Customer Care for parts.
3. Assemble the unit according to assembly guide instructions.
AUGER PRIMING
First time using your grill or whenever your grill runs out of pellets in the hopper, you will need to prime the auger. If not
primed, the grill will timeout before the pellets are ignited, and no fire will start. Follow these steps to prime the auger:
1. Open the hopper lid. Make sure there are no foreign objects in the hopper or blocking the auger feed system.
2. Remove all cooking components from the interior of the grill. Locate the burn pot in the bottom of the pellet grill.
3. Plug the power cord into a power source.
4. Press the Power Button to turn the unit on. This will initiate the start-up cycle. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to
SMOKE. Check the following items:
Check to make sure you hear the auger turning. Place your hand above the burn pot and feel for air movement.
DO NOT place your hands or fingers inside the burn pot, this can cause injury.
After approximately a minute, you should smell the igniter burning and begin to feel the air getting warmer
above the burn pot. The igniter tip does not glow red but will get extremely hot and will burn. Do not touch
the igniter.
5. Once verified that all electric components are working correctly, turn the grill off.
6. Fill the hopper with all natural hardwood barbecue pellets.
7. Press the Power Button to turn the unit on. Keep the Temperature Control Dial at SMOKE. This will initiate the start-
up cycle.
8. Press and hold the Prime Button until you see pellets drop from the auger into the burn pot. Now you can release
the Prime Button.
9. You now can turn your grill off. Please make sure you allow your grill to stay plugged in until it finishes the cool
down cycle. Once the fan turns off, the grill has completed the shutdown cycle and it is safe to unplug your grill.
10. Re-install the cooking components into the main barrel.
11. Your grill is now primed and ready to use! If this is the first use of the grill, proceed with a grill burn-off.

FIRST USE (BURN OFF)
Once your hopper has been primed and before cooking on your grill for the first time, it is important to complete a grill
burn-off to burn-off the grill and rid it of any foreign matter.
1. Follow Regular Use instructions (below) to turn the unit on.
2. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to any temperature over 176°C / 350°F (with the lid down) for 30 to 40 minutes.
3. Follow Shut-down instructions to turn the unit off, or proceed with grilling at your desired temperature.
REGULAR USE
Smoking and grilling styles of cooking can give you different results
based on time and temperature. For best results, keep a record of what
you cooked, at what temperature, how long you cooked for, and the
results. Adjust to your taste for the next time. As you become familiar
with your grill, it is wise to place an outdoor thermometer close to your
cooking area. Practice makes perfect.
Temperature readouts on the control board may not exactly
match the thermometer. The cooking temperature is affected by
the following factors: outside ambient temperature, the amount
and direction of wind, the quality of pellet fuel being used, the
lid being opened, and the quantity of food being cooked.
Follow these steps for regular use of your grill:
1. Confirm the auger is primed. If not, prime the auger.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded power source. (A)
3. Open the hopper lid. Fill the hopper with dry, all natural barbecue
hardwood pellets. (B)
4. Open the grill lid. (C)
5. Press the Power Button to turn the unit on. Turn the Temperature
Control Dial to SMOKE (D). This will activate the start-up cycle:
The auger feed system will begin to turn, and the fan will
supply air to the burn pot.
The lid must remain open during the start-up cycle.
The grill will begin to produce smoke while the start-up cycle
is taking place (E). To confirm the start-up cycle has begun
properly, listen for a torchy roar, and notice some heat being
produced.
6. Once the heavy, white smoke has dissipated, the start-up cycle is
complete. Close the grill lid. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to
your desired temperature and start grilling! (F)

PRESETS & HOT SMOKING
Smoking and grilling styles of cooking can give you different results based on time and temperature. The art of hot
smoking refers to longer cooking times, but results in more natural hardwood flavor (and a sought-after smoke ring) on
your meats. Higher cooking temperatures result in a shorter cooking time, locking in less smoke flavor.
For best results, allow time for meats to rest after cooking. This allows the natural juices to migrate back into
the meat fiber, giving a much juicer, flavorful cut. Resting times can be as little as 3 minutes and up to 60 min-
utes, depending on the size of the protein.

MANUAL START-UP
If for any reason your electric igniter fails or your grill's flame dies out
during a cook, start your grill using the manual method.
Follow these steps to safety use your grill without a working igniter:
1. Confirm the auger is primed. If not, prime the auger.
2. Open the hopper lid. Fill the hopper with dry, all natural barbecue
hardwood pellets.
3. Open the grill lid (A). Remove the cooking components to expose
the burn pot. Check the burn pot to ensure there is no obstruction.
Place a generous handful of pellets into the burn pot (B). Squirt a
gelled fire starter, or other appropriate pellet starter, over the top
of the pellets. A small amount of solid fuel fire starter, such as one
composed of sawdust and wax, or wood shavings, is also appropri-
ate. Add another small amount of pellets in the burn pot.
WARNING: Do not use spirit, petrol, gasoline, lighter-fluid, or
kerosene for lighting or refreshing a fire in your grill.
4. Light the contents of the burn pot using a long match or long-
nosed lighter (C). Allow the starter to burn for 3 to 5 minutes.
WARNING: Do not attempt to add more fire starter into the

MORE FUNCTIONS
Switching Temperature Units
1. Press the temperature switch button,
and the temperature unit will change
from Fahrenheit (ºF) to Celsius (ºC).
2. Repeat to switch back to Fahrenheit (ºF).
Meat Probe Tips
The meat probe measure the internal temp-
erature of your meat in the grill, similar to your
indoor oven. More meat probes means more
readouts!
Place a meat probe into the thickest portion
of your meat.
When not in use, disconnect from the meat
probe connection port and place aside to
keep protected and clean.
Overheat Protection
If the grill overheats, it will automatically
shut-down as a safety feature. This is often
due to a grease fire or an overfeed of fuel.
See troubleshooting for more details.
Prime for Quick Recovery
Use the Prime Button to activate an extra feed of
pellets to the burn pot.
This can be used to add more fuel to the fire
before opening the barrel lid, resulting in a
quick heat recovery time.
Use when low smoking, to increase the in-
tensity of clean smoke flavor. A extra feed of
pellets will add a burst of smoky goodness!
Low Fire Warning
If the fire in the burn pot is at risk of going
out, the ACTUAL temperature readout will
flash, as a warning feature.
Add more fuel to the hopper, or see trouble-
shooting for more details.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
Any Pit Boss® unit will give you many years of flavorful service with
minimum cleaning. Follow these tips to service your grill:
Grill Interior
Clean your burn pot out after every few uses. This will ensure prop-
er ignition and avoid any hard build-up of debris or ash. (A)
Use a grill cleaning brush to remove any food or build-up from the
cooking grates. Best practice is to do this while they are still warm
from a previous cook.
Grease fires are caused by too much fallen debris on the cooking
components of the grill. Use the flame broiler slide plate to scrape
off the main plate, and vise-versa (B). Remove the debris from
inside your barrel with a wet/dry vacuum. For an extra deep clean,
use Pit Boss® Cleaner & Degreaser for the grill interior and exterior.
IMPORTANT: Due to high heat, do not cover the flame broiler
components with aluminum foil.
Grill Exterior
Check your grease bucket often, and clean out as necessary. Keep
in mind the type of cooking you do. (C)
Wipe your grill down after each use (D). 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 are rather part of
general maintenance and upkeep. For paint scratches, wearing, or
flaking of the finish, all painted surfaces can be touched up using
a high heat BBQ paint.
A grill 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.
Probes
Wipe your meat probe after each use. A meat probe not in use
should be rolled up in a large, loose coil. Kinks or folds in the probe
wires may cause damage. Do not place in the dishwasher or sub-
merge in water. Water damage to the internal wires will cause a
meat probe to short-out, causing false readings. (E)
Check and clean off any grease or debris from the grill probe, found
inside the main grill body, on the left-side wall. If the control board
readout is far different from the grill thermometer reading, a dirty
grill probe is often the issue. (F)
If a probe is damaged, it should be replaced.

Hopper Electric Components Once A Year Dust Out Interior, Wipe Fan Blades with Soapy
Water
Air Intake Vent Every 5-6 Grill Sessions Dust, Cloth & Soapy Water
Grill Probe Every 2-3 Grill Sessions Cloth & Soapy Water
Hopper Assembly
The hopper includes a clean-out feature to allow for ease of clean-
ing and change out of pellet fuel flavors. To empty, locate the plate
and the cover of the drop chute on the back side of the hopper.
Place a clean, empty pail under the drop chute cover, then remove
the cover piece. Unscrew the plate, slide outwards, and pellets will
empty. (G)
NOTE: Use a long handled brush or wet/dry vacuum to remove
excess pellets, sawdust, and debris for a complete clean-out
through the hopper screen.
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 access panel has been re-
moved, carefully wipe off any grease build-up directly on the fan
blades. This ensures airflow is clean and sufficient to the feed sys-
tem. (H)

TROUBLESHOOTING
Proper cleaning, maintenance, and the use of clean, dry, quality fuel will prevent common operational problems. When
your Pit Boss® grill is operating poorly, or on a less frequent basis, the following troubleshooting tips may be helpful.
WARNING: Always disconnect the electrical cord prior to opening the grill for any inspection, maintenance,
cleaning, or service work. Ensure the grill is completely cooled to avoid injury.
PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION
No Power Lights On The
Control Board
Temperature control dial is
still off.
Press the Power Button, and ensure the button glows blue to show there is a
power connection. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to a temperature setting.
Not connected to power
source
Ensure unit is plugged into a working power source. Reset breaker. Ensure a
minimum 10 amp service. Ensure all wire connections are firmly connected
and dry.
Fuse blown on the control
board
Remove the access panel. Press in plastic tabs holding the control board in
place and carefully pull controller inside the hopper to release controller. Check
the fuse for a broken wire or if the wire has turned black. If yes, fuse needs to
be manually replaced.
Faulty control board Control Board needs to be replaced. Contact Customer Care for a replacement
part.
Fire in burn pot will not
light
Auger not primed Before the unit is used for the first time or anytime the hopper is completely
emptied out, the auger must be primed to allow pellets to fill the auger tube.
If not primed, the igniter will timeout before the pellets reach the burn pot.
Follow Auger Priming Procedure.
Auger motor is jammed Remove cooking components from the main barrel. Press the Power Button
to turn the unit on, turn Temperature Control Dial to SMOKE, and inspect the
auger feed system. Visually confirm that the auger is dropping pellets into
the burn pot. If not operating properly, call Customer Care for assistance or a
replacement part.
Igniter failure Remove cooking components from the main barrel. Press the Power Button
to turn the unit on, turn Temperature Control Dial to SMOKE, and inspect
the igniter. Visually confirm that the igniter is working by placing your hand
above the burn pot and feeling for heat. Visually confirm that the igniter is
protruding approximately 13mm / 0.5 inches in the burn pot. If not operating
properly, follow Manual Start-up to continue use of grill. Call Customer Care
for assistance or a replacement part.
Flashing dots on display
screen
The igniter is on This is not an error that effects the grill. Used to show that the unit has power
and is in its start-up cycle (igniter is on). The igniter will turn off after five
minutes. Once the flashing dots disappear, the grill will begin to adjust to the
desired temperature selected.
Flashing temperature on
display screen
Grill temperature is below
65°C /150°F
This is not an error that effects the unit; however, it is used to show that there
is some risk that the fire could go out. Check hopper for sufficient fuel or if
there is an obstruction in the feed system. Remove pellets and follow Care and
Maintenance instructions. Check Grill Probe and follow Care and Maintenance
instructions if dirty. Check burn pot for ash build-up or obstructions, and
follow Care and Maintenance instructions for ash build-up. Check fan. Ensure it
is working properly and air intake is not blocked. Follow Care and Maintenance
instructions if dirty. Check auger motor to confirm operation (rotation), and
ensure there is no blockage in the auger tube.
