Draft door and ash drawer
Free a sticking drawer or door
Kamado Joe gives no method beyond emptying the ash; steps 2 and 3 are common owner practice, with no proper source found.
- With the grill cold, pull the ash drawer straight out through the draft-door opening.
- Clear ash from the slot and the drawer runners.
- Check the draft door slides freely from end to end.
- Slide the drawer back, handle lined up with the opening.
- Replace a bent drawer (KJ-AC23) or door (KJ-DD23).
