The Texas BBQ Forum

I have not done much for the last 5 years but for Christmas my wife got me some Traeger accessories, I told here that was great but I don't have a Traeger. Her response was to go get one, what a deal

I picked a Timberline 1300 up and started putting it together but one of the sockets for a leg was not formed right so I called and asked that if I used longer bolts would that void my warranty and they said don't do it we will send you a new 1300. I got the new one today and got the legs and braces on but now I am trying to figure out how to pick it up and stand it on its legs

Welcome; I’m confident some of the Traeger guys will see this and offer help

Welcome from Norway. Look forward to seeing your posts.

Thank you Norway Joe,

As for getting the Traeger to stand up I don't know of and special tricks. I think the answer is to get some muscle help and just lift it.
They are a bit awkward in that the weight is more towards the hopper end. I have assembled several but don't remember it being a big problem.
Maybe someone on the forum here that can lend a hand.

BTW welcome back and enjoy that pellet machine....
