LID GAP

If your Traeger grill's lid isn't completely closing, we're here to help. 

LID GAP

Your grill's lid should sit flush on the barrel. A gap between the lid and the barrel that is less than 1/4 inch (0.63 cm) is normal, and there's no reason to worry.

If you see a gap larger than 1/4 inches between your grill's lid and barrel, please take the steps below.

LOOSEN HINGES

Please take the steps below:

1. Loosen the screws on your grill's hinges with a screwdriver.
