If there is a problem with the operation of the Ignition Rod, please order a replacement
by contacting the Z Grills Australia team at www.zgrills.com.au. Before ordering a
replacement ignition rod, make sure the problem isn’t just an ash filled Fire-pot!
It is possible to manually operate the grill without using the Ignition Rod, as outlined
below:
1. Switch the Grill OFF and disconnect from power supply.
2. Remove the Hopper bottom cover to access the wiring. Unplug the Ignition Rod
(Purple/White wires). Refer to section Wiring Diagram for more information.
3. Replace the Hopper bottom cover and connect power supply.
4. Place Wood Pellets in the Hopper and Remove the Grill Racks, Grease Pan and
Heat Baffle.
5. Pour 1/2 cup of wood pellets into the Fire Pot.
6. Place a fire-lighter cube into the Fire-pot or squirt a small amount of firelighting gel
onto the pellets. DO NOT use alcohol, petrol or any other flammable liquids. Never
add any firelighting gel to an already lit fire.
7. Carefully light the pellets with a long match or long reach fire lighter.
8. Once there is fire in the Fire-pot turn the Grill ON and turn to the desired
temperature setting.
9. Carefully replace the Heat Baffle, Grease Tray and Grilling Racks.
15. Manual Operation
Changing from High to Low Temperature Setting
1. If the Grill has been operating at a high temperature and is then set to a lower
temperature, the Grill will take a long time to cool down as fire in the Fire-pot will
keep producing heat.
2. It is much faster to simply turn the Dial to Shut Down Cycle which will stop any
more pellets being delivered to the Fire-pot. Once the Grill has cooled down
sufficiently follow the normal Startup Procedure.
Temperature Cycling
1. Pellets are delivered to the Fire-pot by the Auger when the temperature is below the
temperature setting.
2. Once the new pellets ignite, the temperature will rise and can initially exceed the
temperature setting.
3. The temperature can swing as much as 20
o
C either side of the dial setting,
especially during the first hour of operation, after any temperature setting changes
or if the lid is opened for several minutes. This is normal.
4. Because the heat is indirect this temperature cycling will not adversely effect the
cooking of food.
5. The Grill Temperature is measured at the left side of the Grill toward the top of the
Grill drum, and so temperatures on the main grill rack may be 10-15
o
C lower.
