• Ensure that the control knob is in the off position and remove propane tank from regulator
• Clean all surfaces. Lightly coat the fryer with cooking oil to prevent excess rusting.
• If storing the fryer indoors, disconnect the propane tank.
• Place dust cap on propane tank valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on
the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the propane tank. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of
propane.
• Check and clean burner prior to use after storing, at the beginning of grilling season or after a period of not being used.
Spiders and insects like to build nests in burner tubes (especially during colder months). Blocked burner tubes can
prevent gas ow to the burners and could result in a burner tube re or re beneath the fryer. See “Burner Assembly/
Maintenance” under Proper Care and Maintenance.
• In order to extend and maintain the life and condition of the fryer, we recommend that the unit be covered when stored
outside.
1. Turn gas off at control knob and disconnect regulator from burner.
2. Use a narrow bottle brush or a stiff wire bent into a small hook to run through the
burner tube.
Note: Wear eye protection when cleaning burner with compressed air.
3. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.
4. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
