ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS YS480 PELLET COOKER - 24” YS640 PELLET COOKER - 32”

Yoder Smokers Pellet Temperature Test This test will allow you to verify that your pellet cooker is functioning normally. When running this test, it is strongly suggested that you use BBQr's Delight brand pellets, as this brand of pellets are what the factory uses exclusively for programming, testing and cooking. For proper results, remove old pellets from the hopper and use fresh pellets. This test will take 2 hours, and require you to document timings, controller temperature readings, controller mode readings and optionally, external temperature probe readings, if you are using them. External temperature probes MUST be located on the bottom grate, at the location(s) listed in FIG 1, using the probe location(s) specific to each model of pellet cooker, centered front to back, positioned DIRECTLY ON THE GRATE SURFACE (not in probe holders), with the tip of the probe(s) at the specific location(s), and probe wire(s) MUST NOT be run through the door into the cooker. Measurements for probe tip placement are from the pellet hopper wall inside the cooker (FIG 2 below shows probe placement(s) in a YS640).
