Use caution when opening the door of the smoker while in operation. Keep hands, face, and body safe from hot steam or
flare-ups. Protect your nose and mouth from smoke inhalation.
DO NOT wear loose clothing while operating the smoker. Tie back long hair while operating the smoker. ALWAYS wear
fully-covering shoes while operating the smoker.
Allow the smoker and its components to cool completely before conducting any routine cleaning or maintenance.
NEVER use glassware, plastic, or ceramic cookware on or in your smoker.
NEVER operate the smoker without water in the water bowl. NEVER allow the water to completely evaporate. Check the
water level at least every 2 hours. A sizzling sound may indicate a low water level. Follow instructions in this manual for
adding water while operating.
When using flavoring wood, add a sufficient amount prior to operation to avoid having to add wood while operating.
Adding wood while operating may splash hot water and cause serious injury.
Use of accessories not intended for this smoker is not recommended and may lead to injury or property damage.
An LP cylinder not connected for use should not be stored in the vicinity of the smoker or any other appliance. DO NOT
store spare LP cylinders within 10 feet of the smoker. LP cylinders must be stored outdoors, out of reach of children. DO
NOT store LP cylinders in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
DO NOT store LP gas cylinders inside or on top of the smoker. Improper storage of cylinders could lead to explosion,
fire, and/or personal injury. Cylinders are to be stored outdoors, out of reach of children and must not be stored in a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
While the smoker is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder.
LP gasses are heavier than air, tend to pool and collect in low-lying areas, are easily ignited and are highly flammable.
Proper care and caution should be employed when dealing with any such fuels.
The smoker should be shut off and all supply valves (on piping or on fuel cylinders) should be closed in the event that
the odor of unburned gas is detected. Do not attempt to use the unit until any gas leaks are fixed and/or the source of
the unburned gas odor is accounted for.
Do not use the smoker if the burner fails to light or fails to remain lit. Under such conditions, gas should be shut off and
fuel cylinders should be disconnected.
Use under high wind conditions that result in poor burner operation such as blowing out
and flaring should be avoided. If repositioning the unit does not improve operation under
such wind conditions, the unit should be shut off.

All installations are to conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes, installation
should conform to the ode, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.National Fuel Gas C
The smoker should be installed with the hose regulator assembly extended at full
length of hose directly (24” [61 cm] maximum) away from the burner. When so
onfigured, placement results in maximum tank to smoker distance. When the
smoker is operated, the hose/regulator and gas tank should be on a line
perpendicular to wind direction. Placing tank closer than 24” (61 cm) to the
smoker can overheat the tank and cause release of propane through relief
openings and can result in tank fire or explosion.
