Grate positions
As well as moving the grates to be positioned to your preference along the grill, the dual-sided
grates can also be placed flat or in an angled position. If the grates are hot, please use the multi-
tool to move the grates or re-position them. Placing the grates in an angled positioned (Fig. 21),
allows fat and grease to run off food and into the grease management system. It also allows for a
slightly slower cooking, than if the grate was placed flat (Fig. 22). If you are using a griddle plate
please ensure that the plate is flat or tilted at an upward angle, and not tilted down. Wire grates
can only be used in the flat position as shown in Fig. 23.

Using the multi-tool:
The multi-tool is an accessory that comes included with the grill. This can be used to lift and move
grates, lift the charcoal burner lid and adjust the charcoal burner venting filters. It can be used to
scrape grease and fat residues into the hole which filters grease down into the drip pan.
IMPORTANT!
Take care when using the multi-tool to move the grates. The hot and heavy grates can cause injury.
To adjust grates using the multi-tool
1 Grip the multi-tool handle, with the flat-edged end
at the top.
2 Rotate the multi-tool 90 degrees and insert the flat-
edge end into the center grate slot, making sure the
end is below the middle horizontal bar of the grate.
Note: there is greater balance and control of the
grate when the multi-tool is centered.
3 Rotate the multi-tool back 90 degrees. The notches
in the flat-edged end will lock the grate into place.
4 Carefully lift the grate out of the grill or into your
desired position.
5 Rotate the multi-tool again to remove it from the
grate.
