Cleaning Your Mak Grill - Mak Grills EP-429-2G Owner's Manual

CLEANING YOUR MAK GRILL

In order to keep your MAK looking as good as new and operating
correctly, follow these recommended cleaning/maintenance guidelines.
Take care of your MAK, and it will take good care of you!
NOTE: Let grill cool completely before attempting any cleaning.
EXTERIOR:
4 Stainless Steel: It is recommended that every time you want to cook
on your 2 Star, that you wipe down your grill lid, (front and back)
using a damp paper towel. This prevents "ambering" from occurring
which discolors the steel. For grease removal, use a bio-degradable
degreaser. The liquid version of Barkeeper's Friend is an
inexpensive and excellent stainless steel polish. For more severe
smoke discoloration, we recommend using a liquid degreaser.
4
Fan Panel (located on the left end of the barbecue body). Twice a
year, clean the ports on the fan panel to remove dust, dirt, pollen or
other debris. Use a shop-vac to quickly clean the panel. Or remove
the panel from the grill and wash it using hot, soapy water. Rinse, dry
it and then reattach to the grill.
4
Grill Lid: To reduce grease drippings, clean the lip and inside of the
grill lid using a mild dish detergent and hot water. Some grill owners
remove the lid from the grill and clean the underside with a general
all purpose degreaser.
4
Pellet Boss®: Use a damp cloth and mild dish detergent to remove
greasy fingerprints, dust or dirt. Avoid getting soap or water into the
meat probe inputs. Wipe dry using a soft cloth or towel.
4
Pellet Hopper: Remove accumulated pellet dust by either brushing or
vacuuming out the pellet hopper as needed. It is also a good idea to
vacuum out pellet dust from the auger tube as well.
4
Powder Coat: Remove grease or cooking residue from the powder
coat finish using mild dish detergent and hot water. If the residue
does not come off easily, use a scrubby pad to lightly agitate the
affected area. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and a soft towel to dry.
