When I clean my RT-590 and vacuum out the fire pot, do I need to add some pellets by hand to the vacuumed out fire pot. The auger is fully primed with pellets and I'm not sure if I should leave the fire pot empty after cleaning. I don't want it to over fill on start up and cause a problem.
 
I usually do. I just follow the burn in instructions and add a small handful to the fire pot.
 
I’ve done both. If you add pellets, don’t add as much as you did initially. If you don’t add any it may take a little longer to get smoke. Both have worked for me.
 
I always add a small amount too. Not as much as when you perform the initial start up.
 
Has anyone had trouble getting pellets to light in a smoke tube? I've tried 3 different propane lighters and cannot get my pellets to smoke one bit.
