After Use Safety and Maintenance
Care and Maintenance to be performed before
each use:
CAUTION
performed only while the smoker is turned off and cooled.
Clean the water bowl and cooking grids with hot, soapy
water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. You may prefer to coat
the water bowl and cooking grids lightly with cooking oil
or cooking spray.
Frequently check and clean the venturi and burner for
insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to fire
outside the smoker. Also make sure the smoker does not
have any foreign objects obstructing the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
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.
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.

the end of the regulator hose from the side handle using
the supplied S-hook.
During each use, inspect the flames at the burner. A good
flame should be blue with a yellow tip about 1 inch in
length. If flames 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 flames. Bad flames may also be caused by poor
regulator-to-venturi attachment. Always let the smoker
cool before cleaning or checking the assembly.
To protect your smoker from weather, always keep your
smoker covered while not in use.

material including but not limited to wood,dry plants
including grass, brush, paper, and canvas.
