AFTER USE SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
If rust is present on the exterior surface of the smoker,
clean the area with steel wool or emery cloth and use
heavy duty, heat resistant paint.
NEVER apply additional paint to the interior of the
smoker. If rust is present on the interior of the smoker,
clean it thoroughly with steel wool or emery cloth and
lightly coat the area with cooking oil or cooking spray to
help minimize recurring rust.
When an LPG cylinder is not connected, and to help
prevent dirt or other foreign particles from clogging the
hose/regulator, hang the end of the hose/regulator
from the side handle using the supplied S-hook.
To protect your smoker from weather, always keep your
smoker covered while not in use.
Inspect the ames at the burner by looking through the
front access hole.A good ame should be blue with a
yellow tip 2.5-5cm in length. If ames are excessively
yellow and irregular, oil residue and food deposits may
be collecting on the burner. Try cleaning the burner
surface and the holes to improve the ames. Bad
ames may also be caused by poor gas valve orice-to-
burner attachment. Always let the smoker cool before
cleaning or checking the assembly.
Use caution when lifting and moving the smoker to
avoid strains or back injury. Two people are
recommended to lift or move the smoker.
DO NOT store the smoker near gasoline or other
combustible liquids or where combustible vapors may
be present.
DO NOT store this smoker in an area accessible to
children or pets. Store the smoker in a dry, protected
location.
DO NOT allow anyone to conduct activities around the
smoker following use until it has cooled. It is hot during
operation.
DO NOT leave hot ashes unattended until the smoker
cools completely.
This smoker becomes extremely hot - allow the smoker
to cool completely before handling. If you must handle
smoker while it is hot, ALWAYS wear protective oven
mitts or heat resistant gloves when handling the
smoker or its components. Allow the smoker to cool
before removing and cleaning the grease pan.
Dispose of cold ashes by wrapping them in heavy duty
aluminum foil and putting them in a noncombustible
container. Be sure there are no other combustible
materials in or near the container.
If you must dispose of the ashes in less time than it
takes for them to completely cool, remove the ashes
from the smoker, keeping them in heavy duty foil, and
soak them completely with water before disposing of
them in a non-combustible container.
CAUTION: All care and maintenance procedures
are to be performed only while the smoker is
turned off and cooled.
Clean the water/wood chip tray and cooking grills with
hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. You may
prefer to coat the water/wood chip tray and cooking
grills lightly with cooking oil or cooking spray.
Frequently check and clean the burner for insects and
insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to re outside the
smoker. Also make sure the smoker does not have any
foreign objects obstructing the ow of combustion and
ventilation air.
If your temperature gauge seems to be out of
calibration: Remove the heat indicator from the door of
the smoker by loosening and removing the mounting
nut from the inside. There is a second nut mounted on
the back of the heat indicator that can be turned to
adjust the heat indicator needle. Set the needle to the
current outdoor ambient temperature and re-mount the
heat indicator to the door of the smoker.
To clean the inside and outside of the smoker cabinet,
simply use a damp cloth. Spray-washing with a water
hose is not recommended. All moisture should be
wiped away and not allowed to stand inside or on
top of the smoker. Once cleaned, you may prefer to
lightly coat the interior of the smoker cabinet with
cooking oil or cooking spray.
STORAGE
Before Storing Your Smoker:
Clean all surfaces.
When cool and not in use, store your smoker indoors in
a dry location to protect against rusting.
If storing the smoker outdoors, cover the smoker with a
smoker cover for protection from the weather.
