Electricity Requirements

• 240V AC (not DC)
• Minimum 300W power supply from battery pack
• Average power draw after startup 40 to 50W.
• To run the grill for 8 hours at least 500Wh of battery capacity will be required.

Wood Pellet Hopper

What is the hopper capacity?

• The 7002B hopper can hold up to 10kg of wood pellets, enough for 20+ hours of low temperature cooking or 7-10 high temperature cooks.

How many pellets to add into the hopper?

• It is not advisable to fill the hopper right up, instead just add enough for each cook. This is because pellets can slowly absorb moisture, especially in humid conditions.
• A full hopper may be enough for multiple cooks so some of the pellets may be exposed to air for weeks or months.
• By only adding enough pellets for each hook (plus little extra as a buffer), pellets are not sitting for long.
• Click here to learn more about wood pellets, including how to store them.

How fast are wood pellets used?

• The pellet usage will differ greatly based on type of pellets used, outside air temperature, wind exposure and what temperature the grill is set at.
• Approximate pellet usage:
  – Low temperature operation = 0.3 to 0.5kg/hour (0.7 to 1.1lbs)
  – High temperature operation = 1 to 2kg/hour (2.2 to 4.4lbs)

Cleaning out wood pellets

• Burning out all the pellets is recommended if not planning to use the grill for several weeks or longer, especially in humid climates.
• Click here to jump to the cleaning section to learn how.

Grill Racks & Area

The 7002B Wireless comes standard with twin (bottom) grill racks and a single top grill rack. Combined, these racks provide a total cooking area of 0.44m².

• Twin bottom grill racks: Total of 66cm wide x 49cm deep.
• Top grill rack: 70cm wide x 17.5cm deep
• Total cooking area: 0.44m²

Why twin grill racks?

• Smaller racks are easier to fit in a basin or dish washer for cleaning.
• The left (narrower) grill rack can be removed and the Stainless Steel BBQ Hotplate dropped in place.

Can the top grill rack be removed?

• Yes it just lifts out.
• It is advisable to leave the top rack out when not in use as it makes accessing food on the bottom rack easier.
• To neatly store the grill rack when not in use, grab a set of Magnet Hooks which are perfect for hanging the top grill rack on the back of the grill.

Small top grill rack (optional)

• When you need the extra top rack space but also need to accommodate a tall cut of meat on the bottom rack the small top grill rack may suit you well.
• It is the same width as the standard top grill rack but is only 20cm deep instead of 34cm.
• Because of this smaller depth it can also be slid forward and backwards to position as required.
• The rack has angled rails at the front and rear to prevent food falling off.
• Click here to visit our shop and grab yourself a small top grill rack.

Vertical height for food

• The image below shows the space available for food. Take out the top rack to give the full 22cm vertical height for food.

• Most food can be cut or positioned to fit in the grill. A good example is a chicken or turkey, which can be laid out flat (spatchcock style) rather than standing up vertically which may be too tall.

What are grill racks made from?

• The grill racks are made from steel with a ceramic (enamel) coating similar to bake trays and the inside of your oven. This coating makes them durable and easier to clean.
• Click here for more information about cleaning.

How to store grill racks

• Where to store a grill rack when not in use? We have a neat solution for that!
• Hook them neatly on the back of the grill using our Magnet Hooks.

Grease Tray

The grease tray sits just below the grill racks, sloping from left to right. Gaps along the front and rear sides of the grease tray allow the hot air flow from below to rise up into the cooking area.

The grease tray should be covered with a layer of foil, making it easy to clean after a dirty cook. Click here to learn more about how to clean the grill.

The vent holes must be covered when normal cooking and only uncovered for high temp cooking on the hot plates.

Click here to learn more about the vented grease tray design.

How It Works

The controller monitors the temperature in the grill and intermittently operates the auger motor (attached to the spiral auger shaft) to carry wood pellets from the hopper into the fire-pot.

The wood pellets are lit by the ignition rod and a fire is then automatically maintained. Even at low smoking temperatures a fire is active in the fire-pot.

A fan underneath the hopper blows air through a number of holes in the fire-pot, feeding the fire with oxygen.

After circulating around the grilling area, the hot air and smoke is vented out through the chimney.

Wireless Controller & App

The WIFI controller has many features that can be accessed directly on the controller (no wireless connection needed).

Click here for a detailed overview of the App including how to download and pair it with the grill.

Bluetooth connection

• Bluetooth connection allows remote temperature monitoring and control when within the signal range. The distance will vary greatly depending on the building wall material and location of the grill.
• Where possible connect to WIFI as well.

WIFI connection

• WIFI connection allows remote monitoring of the grill and food probe temperatures and control of the operation of the grill directly from the App.
• The grill will be accessible both at home and when away as long as the phone has an internet connection (WIFI, 4G/5G mobile).

Where to place the antenna?

• The antenna has a magnetic base and long cable so can be located on the side, rear or top of the hopper to get the best signal.
• Do not place the antenna on a hot part of the grill as the base may melt, or magnet loose strength.

BBQ Hotplate Kit

The left hand (narrower) grill rack can be removed and a BBQ Hotplate dropped in its place for high temperature searing over the vented grease tray.

Click here for more information.

Can the BBQ hotplate kit be left in place long term?

• Yes it can
• Temperature regulation throughout the grill may be slightly different compared to when grill racks are in place. If doing a low and slow cook, it may be better to put the left grill rack back.
• Always ensure the grease tray vents are covered in foil when the BBQ hotplate is not in place.
