&%&,�! )&$&%'! *)! ,Q/! Q/#,/$:Pull out the handles on the sides of the Q-Flame burn
chamber. This closes off the flow of pellets while pouring them in. Once the hoppers
ave a small amount of pellets in both hoppers, push in the handles opening the channels to
allow pellets into the burn chamber one at a time.""On" initial" firing" only" fill" the" hoppers"
