Where it differs from the manual

A sample we made from the maker's public manual: not made for, paid for or approved by the maker. Its name, logo and model are left out, and the manual's pages aren't shown.

  • This sample stops after step 16 of the manual's 25: the cart, firebox and doors. The shelves, side burner, grease tray, lid, grids and the rest (steps 17 to 25) aren't shown.
  • The manual's step pages have no words; the step lines here are ours, read from its drawings.
  • The manual doesn't say which tool goes with which screw; we matched them by size.
  • The manual prints no part sizes; the parts are sized from its drawings.
  • Inside the firebox, the burners, hose and regulator are simplified.
  • The carton is plain: the maker's name printed on it is left off.
