Step 1
Bowl Assembly
Attach Leg (1) to Bowl (5) by hooking the tabs on the Leg into the two slots under the oval hole in the side of the Bowl.
Rotate the Leg up until the top hole in the Leg aligns with top hole in the side of the Bowl. Place a Lock Bracket (3)
against inside of Bowl with the lip at the bottom of the Bracket tting into the wide Bowl slot between the round and
oval holes. Insert 10-24 x 5/8” Bolt (2) through the hole in the Leg, Bowl and Lock Bracket. Fasten in place with 10-24
Lock Nut (4) and tighten. Repeat for other two Legs. Place Bowl/Leg assembly on a at work surface.
Step 2
Insert Bolt 10-24 x 5/8” (2) through the hole next to the rectangular opening in the side of the Bowl then through oval
hole in Cover plate (6). Fasten with Acorn Nut (7) but do not tighten. Slide to left and hook lip inside Bowl. Tighten
Acorn Nut.
Step 3
Install Charcoal Pan (8) into Bowl by sliding it under the Lock Bracket bolts and dropping to the bottom of the Bowl.
The straight edge of the Charcoal Pan should be on the opposite side from the cover plate. Install cooking Grid (9) by
placing it on the Leg/Lock Bracket bolts that extend inside the Bowl.
Step 4
Hood Assembly
Insert 10-24 x 1” Bolt (10), from the outside, through a hole in the rim of the Hood (11). Hold bolt head rmly against
the outside of the Hood rim and fasten in place witha 10-24 Lock Nut (4). Tighten securely. (Note: Smooth bolt head
does not need screwdriver. This Bolt acts as the lock when engaged in the Lock Bracket on the Bowl.) Repeat for other
two Bolts and Nuts around Hood lip.
Step 5
Insert a 10-24 x 5/8” Bolt (2) through hole in Vent Damper (12) then through the small hole nearest the 2” vent hole in
the top of the Hood. Fasten with an Acorn Nut from inside hood. Tighten the Acorn Nut so that the Vent Damper ts
snug against the Hood but can still rotate over large the 2” vent hole. Repeat for other Vent Damper.
Step 6
Insert a 10-24 x 5/8” Bolt (2) through one bottom hole in the Handle Bracket (13) then through the remaining small
holes in the top of the Hood. Fasten with a Lock Nut from inside hood. Repeat for other side of handle bracket.
Tighten both sides securely.
Step 7
Place the Wood Handle (15) between the upright legs of the Handle Bracket so the holes in the wood handle line up
with the holes in the Handle Bracket. Fasten in place with one #8 x 5/8” Screw (14) in each side. Your Lock ‘n Go grill
is now ready for use but FIRST READ IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS and Cooking Instructions on the following pages.
NOTE ABOUT THE LOCK N’ GO FEATURE

STARTING A CHARCOAL FIRE IN YOUR OneFire LOCK ‘N GO GRILL
STEP 1. Use a high quality hardwood charcoal to make sure you get a good re. Charcoal briquettes made from
maple, oak, birch or elm woods will burn clean with very little smoke and without unpleasant odors.
STEP 2. Remove the hood.
STEP 3. Remove the Cooking Grid. Line the bottom of the Bowl with heavy duty aluminum foil.
STEP 4. Place about two pounds of charcoal (25-30 briquettes) in the bottom of the grill.
STEP 5. Make a pyramid shaped stack in the center of the Bowl and pour on charcoal lighter uid following the instruc-
tions on the container.
Warning: Do not use lighter uid if you are using instant light briquettes or an electric re starter.
STEP 6. Let the lighter uid soak in for approximately one minute.
STEP 7. Carefully light the charcoal and let it burn for 20 to 30 minutes or until it is covered with a light gray ash.
NOTE: For a hot re in a hurry, use a fan or a bellows to create extra air movement over the charcoal. Be careful not
to blow the ashes out of the grill.
STEP 8. Use long-handled tongs to arrange the charcoal in a checkerboard pattern. Leave about one-half inch of
space between each piece of charcoal. This will help you to avoid are-up from the meat drippings and will give you
more even heat for grilling.
COOKING ON YOUR OneFire LOCK ‘N GO GRILL
1. ADJUSTABLE DRAFT...Leave the hood vents open for the most heat, close them to lower the heat. It takes a few
minutes for the charcoal to react to the vent adjustment.
2. SMOKING...For true smoke avor, use chips or chunks of wood from nut or fruit trees such as hickory, walnut,
cherry or apple. Soak the chips in water overnight (or at least 2 hours before cooking) so they will not burn so quickly
when you put them on the charcoal.
After you get the re started and charcoal spread out, scatter the soaked chips on top of the hot charcoal using tongs.
Spray the Cooking Grid with cooking spray so food does not stick. Place the meat on the grid, close the hood, and
adjust the vents for the desired heat.
5. FLARE-UPS...Close the vents for at least one minute to stop are-ups. You do not have to use water.
6. PUTTING OUT THE CHARCOAL...Save your charcoal to use again by closing the hood vents. The charcoal will go
out in a little while and the next time you cook, you will need to add less new charcoal.
CARE OF YOUR OneFire LOCK ‘N GO GRILL
For easier cleaning and before each time you cook... line the bottom of the re bowl with heavy duty or a double layer
of aluminum foil.
Ashes...Remove the ashes as soon as possible after each time you cook but wait until the charcoal has cooled. Pour out
the ashes or wrap them in the aluminum foil from the bottom of the Bowl. Never put hot ashes in a garbage container.
You can save any leftover charcoal for use next time you cook. Use a garden hose to wash out accumulated grease and
ashes. Let the grill dry before closing and storing.
Cooking grid...Use a detergent and hot water solution just as you would for any cooking equipment. A sti brush may
be helpful in removing heavy grease deposits.
Hood and Bowl...Dampen a cloth in hot water and a detergent solution. Then, wipe both the inside and outside of the
hood and bowl. CAUTION: Be careful around sharp edges of the grill. Wipe all areas dry before storing. Note: Do not
use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaner on your grill. This may cause damage to the paint nish.
Storage...After you have cleaned your grill, store it in a clean, dry area. Leave all the vents open so moisture does not
collect inside causing rust. If you store your grill outside, close the top vent to keep the rain out.
If rust appears on your grill, clean and bu the aected area with steel wool. Touch up bare metal with a high heat
paint specied for barbeque grills. Follow paint manufacturer’s instructions for use.
