and maintained. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious bodily injury and/or property
damage. If you have any questions concerning assembly or operation, call 912-638-4724.
• Grill is for use outdoors and in well-ventilated areas, only.
• Use caution when assembling and operating your grill to avoid scrapes or cuts from sharp edges.
• Do not use gasoline, kerosene, or alcohol to light charcoal. Use of any of these or similar products
could cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
• Do not leave a lit grill unattended. Keep children and pets away from grill at all times.
• Use caution when moving grill to prevent strains.
• Keep grill at least 15 feet from any combustible material (decks, buildings, fences, trees, bushes,
etc).
• When adding charcoal and/or wood, use extreme caution.
• Never move grill when it is in use or when it contains hot coals or ashes.
• Do not place grill near flammable liquids, gases, or where flammable vapors may be present.
• Use caution since flames can flare-up when fresh air suddenly comes in contact with fire.
• When opening the lid, keep hands, face, and body safe from hot steam and flame flare-ups.
• WARNING: To avoid injuries gloves or other protective articles should be used when touching the
ash pan hangers.
• Do not exceed a temperature of 400°F.
• Do not allow charcoal and/ or wood to rest on the walls of grill. Doing so will greatly reduce the life of
the grill.

brackets. Use extreme caution as hood could fall back to a closed position and cause bodily injury.
• Close lid and all dampers to help suffocate flame.
• Always hold an open lid from the handle to prevent it from closing unexpectedly.
• Never leave coals and ashes unattended. Before grill can be left unattended, coals and ashes must

• Carefully place remaining coals and ashes in a noncombustible metal container and saturate
completely with water.Allow coals and water to remain in metal container 24 hours prior to
