How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Let the grill cool fully before working on the grease system.
- Step 1 – Level the grill: Adjust position so the grease drain side is slightly lower.
- Step 2 – Clear drain hole: Use a wooden skewer or brush to clear the drain opening in the drip tray.
- Step 3 – Inspect drain tube: Ensure the grease drain tube is attached from the tray/channel to the bucket area.
- Step 4 – Avoid blocking with foil: If using foil on the drip tray, keep the drain area open.
- Step 5 – Replace damaged parts: Replace any cracked or missing drain tube or fittings.
