Benedini Oilsmoke II Building Instruction

Building instruction for Benedini Oilsmoke II
Building this smoker needs mechanical and solder skills!

Construction steps:

1. Cut the drilling jig out of the last page of this manual and
tape it on top of the blue box (lid).
If the LARGE smoker housing is used, the jig can be placed in
the center of the lid. This leaves space for vertical smoke exit
on the left and right side of the housing.
2. Mark ALL wholes through the paper by a needle.
3. Drill all holes you need.
NEVER
use a normal spiral drill for the large smoke outlet holes !!!
→ High danger of getting injured during drilling
Use a "hole cutter" as shown in the picture on the right →
Always use a parallel vice during drilling.
Never hold the housing by hand during drilling.
4. Mount solder lugs by the M3 x 6mm screws + nuts.
Watch the lug orientation inside and outside the box !!! (see last page for 24V operation)
Tighten the screws carefully but do not overturn!
They feed the heating current into the box.

A bench drill is highly recommended!
