Weber Charcoal Kettle Grill Cleaning System Replacement

ID: 177866

Description: This is a guide on replacing your cleaning...

Start with your grill upright and remove any grates that are inside of the grill.
Use a charcoal rake or a small garden shovel to remove excess ash and residue in the grill.
Turn the grill on its side and use a pressure washer or hose to clean the inside of it and any extra residue.
Caution: If using a pressure washer, make sure you handle with care. Improper use of the pressure washer could cause injury.

Lay the grill upside down on a flat surface.
Using a towel to lay your grill on will help to avoid damage to the grill or the flat surface.
Use a pair of pliers to remove the screw holding the old cleaning system in place. Once the screw is removed the assembly should come apart easily.
Turn the grill on its side.

Lay the components of the new assembly on your towel next to your grill.
This will help you keep all parts of the assembly together.
Once you've arranged all parts of your assembly, fit the top pieces of the assembly together. These will go inside of your grill.
The holding washer should be fitted to the assembly from the bottom of the grill.

With the grill still laying on its side, make sure the assembly fits properly and is able to turn.
Insert the pin/turning handle through the hole underneath the grill.
You will also need to lock the handle in place by turning it until it clicks.
Turn the grill right side up and assess the construction of your cleaning system assembly.
The blades should turn freely toward the bottom vent holes inside of the grill. This will allow ash and debris to be removed.

Use the pin/turning handle to assess whether the assembly turns correctly.
Once the assembly is in place and functioning, turn the grill right side up and insert the charcoal and food grates.
Finally, add the lid to the grill and enjoy your new grill!
