I just got my Bradley 4 rack digital smoker last week. Seasoned it and it seemed like the biscuit cycling was slow (first use). Today, I have a small port butt in and at first (after an hour) got an "E" message. Shut everything off, re-started and again the same issue. If I shut the whole thing down every 20min and bring it back up a biscuit drops, but (I took the back of the generator off) at the 20min intervals, the arm does not go back far enough and the biscuit doesn't fall. I am just moving the biscuits on my own now every 30 min.
This is the second time I have use this device and have had issues both times. Could very well be operator error, and the posts look good for not advancing, any advice for a novice on the issues I am having??
Hi bwright;
Welcome to the forum. Sorry you didn't get any replies earlier.
Make sure the sensor cord is securely connected.

But it sound more like your push rails may be out of alignment.

If neither works, give Bradley a call.
More troubleshooting and helpful hints.
