The auger works on a timed interval
basis, at which the auger runs depending
on the temperature setting of the
controller. During start-up, the auger will
run for approximately 2 minutes. It then
may shut off for a specified period of time
depending on the temperature reading
inside the grill, then continue to run
again.
Empty the pellet hopper to see if your
pellets have been exposed to moisture. If
they have absorbed moisture or water,
they will swell and jam your auger.
Check to make sure that no foreign
objects have fallen into the pellet hopper
(like dirt or rocks). Remove any foreign
objects if necessary.
