Installation of new hinge how to?

Unknown
edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
After the catastrophe last weekend where the band broke and all the plans were ruined, I have received the new bands and hinge. The instructions are awful and I am hopeful someone here has an easy method of installing the top and bottom bands and hinge together with the side tables which I did manage to salvage. Thanks![p]

  • Hall,Screw the hinge onto the bands first thing. The solid long part of the hinge will be on top.Now, on the front of the top band, attach the BGE handle. Make sure it is right side up or you will be standing on your head to read Big Green Egg. Next,place the bottom hinge with the nub inserted into the small hole on the front of the egg. Now tighten the bolt on the bottom band just enough to hold it in place. Next, tighten the bolt on the top hinge. The bolts should bend about 15 degrees when properly tightened.
