Weber lid thermometer shield

[Lawrence M.]

Hi, I just got a SS performer today. I'm pretty excited! I've been wanting one for a while. The aluminum thermometer shield isn't clipped into anything and flops around. There is a small hooked leaf spring on the thermometer side. Is this supposed to go into the hole on the handle? It's a few mm away. The handle is slightly bent, but if I bend it back it seems like it still wont make. Any advice? Thanks, L

There is a small Aluminum shroud that the thermometer slides into, I would go to Weber.com and you can download a manual for that model grill and then you can see what hardware you are missing. Which could be picked up at most good hardware or box stores selling stainless steel.
