Check and tighten the handles and Tuck-Away

Snug, not tight

The manual: "Tighten hardware until it is secure. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN HARDWARE." No power drill.

  1. With the kettle cold, wiggle the lid handle.
  2. If it moves, hold the handle and snug the 2 nuts inside the lid with the Weber plastic tool. Stop as soon as it is firm.
  3. Check the heat shield sits square under the grip.
  4. Tighten the bowl handle's 1 Phillips screw.
  5. Check the Tuck-Away: 2 shoulder bolts at the rim and the lower carriage bolt. Snug their lock nuts.
  6. Push on each leg: its spring clip button should show through the hole.

Owners report the lid handle loosening now and then and simply re-tighten it; some add a second nut where the thread allows (Weber Kettle Club, owner reports).
