Hogsfan Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Is there a different probe I need to buy or should I just run it under the lid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGGARY Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 If it is possible, bend the probe so that it will go in through the little hole. That is what I did. The Maverick 735 comes with probes that are straight. I think the 733 does too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 The probes will bend, just do it carefully. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poochie Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 I had to bend mine for my Maverick and the meat probe for my CyberQ. I did it slowly and had the probe on a hard surface. I made many very small bends to get the curve out of it. It doesn't have to be perfectly straight to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 The secret is to make many small bends.. easy to get even the 90º probes to work.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogsfan Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Many small bends? Would either of your mind showing me a picture of how what yours look like now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 You don't have to bend it much to get it to fit. Only about 15 degrees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For mine, what I mean is NOT to try to bend it in one continuous motion. You're still bending the same spot, but in small increments until it's where you want it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
