Repeat with the other 3 hanger brackets, at this stage the entire grill carrier with lava rock will be suspended by the hanger brackets from the grill grates. Use the hanging tool to rearrange any rocks that may have moved during the installation process.

- Assembly of your new V-Rock Grill Carrier
Take VR6001201 600 Grill Carrier to your grill. Remove the grill grates, and any burner covers or flavorizer bars so that your burners are exposed. Place the Grill Carrier into your grill firebox and decide where you want to attach the legs. Make sure that the points you choose are not directly over the burners, the legs should rest on the base of the firebox of your grill. Use the white stickers provided to mark the 4 points on the grill carrier where you will mount the legs. Then decide which direction you want your converter to slant, back to front or front to back, this will determine whether meat fats will run off to the front or back of your grill. This will then also determine where you will place the drip rail if you choose to install it.
Take the grill carrier out of the grill firebox and return to your assembly area.
Note: Keep all fasteners hand tight during the initial assembly process

Tips for using the Lava Rock Grill Converter
- Turn your burners to maximum and close the grill lid, let it heat up for about 6 minutes or until the temperature reaches 400 deg F
- Open the grill lid and place your meat on the grill. Close the grill lid and set your burners to low heat. You can finish your grilling at the lowest setting, the efficiency created by the lava rocks allows this to occur
- When you are done grilling, close the lid again and set the burners at maximum setting for 5 minutes, this helps burn off remaining fats
- Although flare ups are minimized by the design of the lava rock grill converter, they can still occur if meat is excessively fatty. A spray bottle with water is handy just in case.
- Your lava rocks can last for many years, however we recommend replacing them every 2 years. Replacement lava rock will be available through our website, it is important to use the same type of lava rock. Not all are the same.
- Please send in your experiences and ideas to our website, including videos, so that we can share them with all our fellow lava rockers.
