AFTER USE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
All care and maintenance procedures are to be performed only while the smoker is
turned off and completely cooled.
To clean, remove the water pan, wood chip box and cooking grates from the smoker. Clean
with hot, soapy water and rinse and dry thoroughly. You may prefer to coat the water pan and
cooking racks lightly with cooking oil or cooking spray.
Frequently check and clean the venturi tube 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. Carefully remove the grease tray, dispose of the grease
and wash thoroughly. 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 of the smoker, clean it thoroughly with steel wool or emery
cloth and use heavy duty, heat resistant paint to cover affected area.
NEVER APPLY additional paint to the interior of the smoker. If rust is present on the interior
of the smoker, clean thoroughly with steel wool or emery cloth, and lightly coat the area with
cooking oil or cooking spray to minimize recurring rust.
When an LP tank is not connected, and to prevent dirt or other foreign particles from clogging
the LP regulator, hang the end of the LP regulator hose from the side hooks using the supplied
S hook.
Visually inspect the flames at the burner. A
good flame should be blue with a yellow
tip and be 1"-2" in length. If flames are
excessively yellow and irregular, oil residue
and/or food deposits may be collecting on the
burner. Try cleaning the burner surfaces and
the burner holes to improve the flames. Bad
flames may be also caused by poor valve-to-
venturi attachment.
ALWAYS allow the smoker to cool completely
before cleaning or checking the assembly.
