CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING

Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you, your family or others. Know the

symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and confusion.

Carbon monoxide reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness

and death. See a doctor if you or others develop cold or ﬂu-like symptoms while cooking or in the vicinity of this

appliance. Carbon monoxide poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold or ﬂu, is often detected too late. Alcohol

consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to

mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly, smokers and people with blood or circulatory system problems,

such as anemia, or heart disease.

3. The use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs

may impair your ability to properly assemble or safely

operate

this appliance.

4. For OUTDOOR use only. Do NOT use in a building,

garage or any other enclosed area. Do NOT use in or on

recreational vehicles or boats. NEVER use this appliance

as a heater.

5. Do not operate appliance under ANY overhead

construction. Keep a minimum clearance of 18 inches

(0.5 m) from the sides, front and back of appliance to

ANY construction. Keep the area clear of all combustible

material and flammable liquids, including wood, dry

plants and grass, brush, paper, and canvas.

6. This product is not intended for commercial use.

7. Always allow the appliance to cool before covering with

the patio cover.

8. Always cover the appliance, with patio cover (if

supplied), when not in use.

9. Always unplug smoker before installing patio cover.

10. Use only on a level, stable non-combustible surface like

bricks, concrete or dirt. Do not use this appliance on

any surface that will burn or melt like wood, asphalt,

vinyl or plastic.

11. Make sure the grease bucket is in place before starting

the smoker.

12. In the event of a fire the dial should be turned to

shutdown, close the door, and leave it closed until the

fire goes out. After allowing the smoker to cool, follow

the cleaning instructions before the next use.

13. Use only food grade hardwood pellets manufactured for

use in pellet smokers. Using softwood or heating pellets

will void your warranty.

14. Do not allow the hopper to run out of pellets. Pellets

can be added at any time. The hopper will hold

approximately 15 pounds of pellets. The pellet usage

will vary greatly depending on the ambient temperature

as well as

cooking temperature.

15. It is recommended that you not store pellets in the

hopper for extended periods as they may absorb

moisture from the air and clog the auger.

16. Keep the door closed during cooking. The smoker is

designed to cook with the door closed.

17. Do not use accessories not specified for use with

appliance.

18. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,

kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to

start or freshen up a fire in this appliance. Keep all

such liquids well away from the appliance when in use.

19. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a

tight fitting door. The closed container of ashes should

be placed on a non combustible floor or on the ground,

well away from all combustible materials, pending final

disposal. When the ashes are disposed by burial in soil

or otherwise locally dispersed they should be retained

in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly

cooled.

20. Creosote – Formation and need for removal. When wood

pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar and other

organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture

to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in a

relatively cool oven flue and exhaust hood of a slow

burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates

on the walls of the smoker. When ignited, this creosote

makes an extremely hot fire. The smoker should be

inspected every 50 hours to determine when grease

and/or creosote build-up has occurred. When grease

or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to

reduce risk of fire.

DANGER

Do not work on this smoker if it is plugged in. Electric

shock may occur resulting in death or serious injury.

Assembly Instructions

Assembly requires two people.

Remove all loose parts from the inside of the smoker and

hopper. Lay a blanket or piece of cardboard down to protect

the smoker.

1. With the smoker cabinet in the upright position remove

the door by lifting it from the hinges. Set the door panel

aside. This will make assembly much easier.

Burner Clean-out

Before each use the burner should be cleaned out by lifting

the pullout lock and pulling the clean-out port knob on the

right side of the smoker to open the burner clean-out. This

will allow the ash from previous use to fall into the cup

under the smoker. The cup should be removed and emptied

and then reinstalled before each use.

After cleaning out the burner make sure to close the burner

clean-out by pushing the clean-out port knob in on the

right side of the smoker. Make sure to lift the pullout lock

and push the clean-out port knob all the way in and lock in

place with the pullout lock. Every 50 hours of use, remove

the smoker grates, grease tray, and heat deﬂector and clean

the inside of the smoker. If you notice a lot of ash blowing

around in the smoker it is time to vacuum it out.

DANGER

Never Operate the Pellet smoker without the ash cup in place.

Make sure the burner clean-out port is closed and locked

before starting the smoker.

Never open the burner clean-out port when the smoker is hot.

Filling the Auger Tube

Caution: Only use the feed setting when the hopper has

ran out of pellets. Feed setting is not for normal use.

The ﬁrst time you use your smoker or any time the hopper

has ran out of pellets you will need to ﬁll the auger tube.

This simply means you must ﬁll the auger tube with pellets

until pellets reach the burner. This is done by turning the

dial to the FEED position then holding the BYPASS button

for 3 seconds. The auger will remain on for no more than

7 minutes. This is ample time for the pellets to reach the

burner. It is easiest to open the burner clean-out by pulling

the knob on the right side of the smoker. Once you hear

pellets dropping into the cup you can close the clean-out

port by pushing the knob on the right side of the smoker and

then select your cooking temperature. (Never operate smoker

without the ash cup in place). Always make sure the burner

clean-out port is closed by pushing in the knob on the right side

of the smoker before selecting any of the cook settings. Never

open the burner clean-out port when the smoker is hot.

Controller Explanation

Power Switch

Used to turn the main power onto the pellet smoker. The fan

will be on whenever the power switch is on. The dial must

be rotated to any of the other positions before the smoker

will start. If the power is turned on with the dial in any other

position than Shutdown the smoker will immediately start

that function. “O” is Off. “-“ is On. See Fig 18

Fig. 18

Dial Positions

Shutdown -This setting must be used after each use. Turn

the dial to this setting and the fan will remain on. Wait for

10 minutes to allow the smoker to ﬁnish burning any pellets

in the burner before turning the main power switch off. This

setting will burn up any extra pellets in the burner and cool

down the smoker. Do not turn the main power switch off

when the smoker is hot.

Low Smoke - This setting is used for smoking foods at an

average temperature of 160F. This setting will produce large

amounts of smoke.

High Smoke - This setting is used for smoking foods at an

average temperature of 220F. This setting will produce large

amounts of smoke.

150F to 350F - There are 25F increment settings from 150F

to 350F. You can simply select any temperature you want

and the smoker will control the temperature within 15F of

the selected temperature.

High - This setting can be used to achieve temperatures up

to 350F depending on ambient temperatures.

Feed - This setting is used to feed pellets to the hopper.

It will be used the ﬁrst time you use the smoker to ﬁll the

auger tube and any time you may inadvertently run the

hopper out of pellets. See instructions on ﬁlling the auger

tube.

Display

“START” - The digital readout will display “START” each

time the dial is changed from the OFF, SHUTDOWN, or FEED

settings to any of the cook settings. The startup cycle

is approximately 8 minutes. During the cook cycle after

the start sequence the digital readout will display the

temperature inside of the smoker. If the Probe Temp button

has been pressed then it will display the temperature of the

external probe used for measuring meat temperatures.

“SDOWN” - The digital readout will display “SDOWN” when

the dial is turned to the shutdown mode. After 10 minutes

the digital readout and the fan will turn off.

“SENSR” - The digital readout will display “SENSR” if there

is an error with the temperature sensor inside of the smoker.

“PRERR” - The digital readout will display “PRERR” when

the Probe Temp button is pressed if either the external probe

is not plugged in or there is a problem with the probe.

“FEED” - The digital readout will display “FEED” if dial is

turned to the feed mode. After 7 minutes the auger will turn

off.

“BPASS” - The digital readout will display “BPASS” when

the bypass button is pressed and held in for 3 seconds. See

the setting on Bypass Mode.

“Flame” - The digital readout will display “ﬂame” if the ﬁre

is extinguished.

Breaking In the Smoker

We suggest turning the smoker to 300F for ½ hour before

cooking on the smoker for the ﬁrst time. This will burn off

any manufacturing oils and cure the paint. Make sure to

follow the instructions for ﬁlling the auger tube before

breaking in the smoker.

DANGER

Always start the smoker with the door open. The door

must be closed after the start cycle.

Cooking

Once the auger tube has been properly ﬁlled you can begin

cooking by selecting any of the cooking temperatures. The

smoker has 13 cook settings. Low Smoke, High Smoke,

150, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300, 325, 350. By selecting any of

these the smoker will go into the Startup mode. The digital

readout will display “START” for 8 minutes during the

startup cycle. After the 8 minutes the digital readout will

display the internal temperature of the smoker. The dial can

be changed at any time during the startup cycle or the cook

cycle between any of the 13 cook settings.

DANGER

Do not over-ﬁre the smoker by over feeding pellets into

the burner prior to startup. If ﬂame is inadvertently

extinguished never restart the smoker without ﬁrst

cleaning out the burner. Improper use can cause an

uncontrolled ﬁre.

Shutdown

When you are done cooking the dial must be turned to the

Shutdown setting. The digital readout will display “SDOWN”.

In this setting the fan will remain on for 10 minutes to

ﬁnish burning any pellets in the burner and cool the smoker

down. After 10 minutes the digital display and auger will

turn off. At this point the main power switch should be

switched to off. Before smoker can be used, the power

switch must be turned off and back on.

Bypass Mode

The bypass may be used if there is a power failure, or the

smoker is accidentally turned off, or anytime you need to

restart the smoker and it is still hot. The bypass mode

should only be used if the smoker has been off less than

3-4 minutes. This method is used to bypass the normal

startup mode and get the smoker cooking again quickly.

The burner must still be hot enough to ignite new pellets

or this method will not work. In order to initiate the bypass

mode you must ﬁrst select the cook setting you want. At this

point the digital readout will display “START”. Simply press

the bypass button in and hold it for 3 seconds. The digital

readout will display “BPASS”. Release the button and the

smoker will go into the cook mode and the digital readout

will display the smoker temperature. If the smoker fails to

ignite using the bypass mode then restart the smoker using

the normal startup procedures.

Meat Probes

This smoker has built in meat probes to measure the

temperature of the food as it is being cooked. To use these

probes insert the wire through the stainless ﬂaps on the

side of the ﬁrebox. Insert the probes into the food. Plug the

connectors into the receptacles on the front of the control

panel. When you press the probe temp button on the front

of the controller the digital readout will display the food

temperature. Press the button a second time to toggle the

display to the other probe. Press the button a third time to

toggle back to the cooking temperature. If the probes are

not installed correctly or there is an error with the probes

the digital readout will display “PRERR” when the probe

temp button is pressed. When running the probe wires to

the food make sure it is positioned out of direct contact with

any open ﬂame or damage may occur. The digital readout

will display a “X” in front of the number when displaying

the “X” meat probe temperature and a “Y” for the “Y” meat

probe temperature. Example: “X155F”

DANGER

Do not turn the main power switch off while the smoker

is hot.

Cleaning

Clean grates using a wire grill brush. This should be

done with each use. DO NOT use oven cleaner or abrasive

cleaners on the painted smoker surfaces. Use warm soapy

water on all painted surfaces. Clean grease pan, grease

trough, and grease drain tube occasionally. A spatula can

be used to scrape excess grease and a grill brush to brush

clean. Do not allow grease to build up on the grease tray or

in the grease trough as this can cause ﬂare-ups inside the

smoker. The grease tray can also be lined with aluminum

foil for easier cleanup. Make sure not to obstruct the ﬂow of

grease off of the tray and into the grease trough. Make sure

not to block the airﬂow to the temperature sensor on the left

side of the smoker.

WARNING

Normal use will create a buildup of ash, grease,

and creosote inside the smoker. The smoker must be

thoroughly cleaned after every 50 hours of use or if

a buildup of grease or creosote is noticed inside the

smoker. Clean the smoker by removing all internal parts

and thoroughly scrape away all grease and creosote

from all internal surfaces including the grease drain

and remove debris from the smoker. The drip tray must

always be cleaned prior to turning the smoker to high.

Excessive buildup of grease and creosote may result in a

grease ﬁre. If a grease ﬁre does occur, turn off the smoker

using the main power switch and close the door. Leave

the door closed until the ﬁre extinguishes itself. If an

uncontrolled ﬁre does occur, immediately call the local

ﬁre department. Never put water on a grease ﬁre.

Smoker Cleaning

When wood pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar and

other organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture to

form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in a relatively

cook oven chimney of a slow burning ﬁre. As a result,

creosote residue accumulates on the smoker walls. When

ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot ﬁre. The smoker

walls should be inspected every 50 hours to determine when

grease and or creosote buildup has occurred. When grease

or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce

risk of ﬁre. Use spatula or a wire brush to clean the smoker

walls with every 50 hours of use.

Troubleshooting

Smoker does not turn on.

Smoker fails to turn on after switching the power button to

the on position.

1. Make sure the smoker is plugged into a powered outlet.

Check the circuit breaker and/or GFCI switch. Test the

outlet using another appliance.

2. Unplug the smoker and check the fuse located in the

front panel. If the fuse is blown replace only with 4.0 Amp

125V 5x20mm Fast Blow Fuse. Typical fuse marking will

be 4A125V, F4A125V, 4A250V, or F4A250V. Make sure to

conﬁrm they are a fast blow fuse. Actual fuse dimensions

are 5.2x20mm. If problem cannot be resolved please call

customer service.

Smoker does not heat up or digital readout

displays Flame

1. Turn Power Off

2. Check hopper for pellets

3. Check ﬁrebox to see if there are pellets in the ﬁrebox.

The easiest way to do this is to pull the burner clean-out

lever. Then remove the cup from the bottom of the smoker

and check for pellets. Use a vacuum to clean-out any

pellets that may be in the bottom of the smoker.

A. If there are a lot of pellets in the cup. Reinstall the

cup and close the burner clean-out, remove the smoker

grates, grease tray, and heat deﬂector and vacuum out

any pellets in the bottom of the smoker. Try restarting the

smoker. If restarting the smoker does not work and pellets

are getting to the burner cup the heating rod may need to

be replaced.

B. If there are few or no pellets in the cup then turn the dial

to the feed position and see if pellets fall out the bottom

of the burner. If there are no pellets check to see if the

auger is turning. If the auger motor is turning but the

auger is not there may be a sheared auger pin. You can

determine if the auger motor is turning by watching the

small white fan at the end of the auger motor under the

hopper. If the white fan is turning the auger motor is on. If

the white fan is turning and the auger is not you will need

AVERTISSMENT CONCERNANT LE MONOXYDE DE CARBON

Avertissement concernant le monoxyde de carbone Respecter les présentes directives pour éviter de vous faire intoxiquer

et d’intoxiquer vos proches par ce gaz incolore et inodore. Vous devez connaître les symptômes d’une intoxication

au monoxyde de carbone : il s’agit de maux de tête, de vertiges, de faiblesses, de nausées, de vomissements, de

somnolence et de confusion. Le monoxyde de carbone réduit la capacité sanguine pour transporter l’oxygène. Un faible

taux d’oxygène dans le sang peut entraîner des pertes de connaissance, voire la mort. Consultez un médecin si vous ou

autrui développez des symptômes du rhume ou s’apparentant à la grippe en cuisinant à proximité de cet appareil. Une

intoxication au monoxyde de carbone, souvent confondue par erreur avec un rhume ou la grippe, est souvent détectée

trop tard. La consommation d’alcool ou de drogues renforce les effets de l’intoxication au monoxyde de carbone.

Le monoxyde de carbone est particulièrement toxique pour les femmes enceintes et leur fœtus, les jeunes enfants, les

personnes âgées, les fumeurs et les personnes souffrant de troubles sanguins ou circulatoires, comme l’anémie ou des

maladies cardiaques.

1. NE PAS laisser l’appareil sans surveillance lorsqu’il

fonctionne. L’utilisateur est tenu de rester à proximité du

produit et de garder celui-ci dans son champ de vision

direct pendant toute la durée de son fonctionnement.

2. Tenir les enfants et animaux domestiques à l’écart du

brûleur en permanence.

3. La consommation d’alcool, ou de médicaments obtenus

ou non sur ordonnance, risque de diminuer votre faculté

de monter correctement l’appareil ou de l’utiliser en toute

sécurité.

4. Destiné à un usage EN PLEIN AIR uniquement. NE PAS

utiliser à l’intérieur d’un immeuble, d’un garage ou de

tout autre endroit fermé. NE PAS utiliser dans un véhicule

récréatif ou sur un bateau. NE JAMAIS utiliser cet appareil

comme système de chauffage.

5. Ne faire fonctionner cet appareil sous AUCUNE surface

surplombante. Conserver une distance minimale de

0.5 m (18 pi) entre les quatre côtés de l’appareil et

TOUTE construction. N’entreposer aucuns matériaux

combustibles et liquides inﬂammables, plantes et

herbes sèches, buissons, papiers et toiles à proximité de

l’appareil.

6. Cet appareil n’est pas destiné à un usage commercial.

7. Toujours laisser l’appareil refroidir avant de le recouvrir

de sa housse d’extérieur.

8. Toujours recouvrir l’appareil de sa housse d’extérieur

(lorsqu’elle est fournie) lorsque l’appareil ne sert pas.

9. Toujours débrancher le barbecue avant de le recouvrir de

la housse d’extérieur.

10. Utiliser uniquement sur une surface stable et non

combustible comme les briques, le béton ou la saleté.

N’utilisez pas cet appareil sur une surface qui brûlera

ou fondra comme du bois, de l’asphalte, du vinyle ou du

plastique.

11. Assurez-vous que le seau à graisse est en place avant

de démarrer le gril.

12. En cas d’incendie, placer le bouton de commande sur

la position SHUTDOWN, fermer le couvercle et le laisser

fermé jusqu’à extinction du feu. Lorsque le barbecue

aura refroidi, suivre les consignes de nettoyage avant la

prochaine utilisation.

13. Utiliser uniquement des granules de feuillu à usage

alimentaire qui sont fabriqués pour être utilisés dans

des barbecues à granules. L’utilisation de granules

de conifères ou de bois de chauffage annulera votre

garantie.

14. Ne pas laisser le réservoir à granules se vider

complètement de granules. Les granules peuvent être

ajoutés à tout moment. Le réservoir peut contenir

environ 6,8 kg de granules. La consommation de

granules variera considérablement en fonction de la

température ambiante ainsi que de la température de

cuisson.

15. Il vous est recommandé de ne pas entreposer les

granules dans leur réservoir pour des périodes

prolongées ; ils peuvent en effet absorber l’humidité de

l’air et obstruer la vis sans ﬁn de transport.

16. Garder le couvercle fermé pendant le fonctionnement

du barbecue. Le barbecue est conçu pour cuisiner en

gardant le couvercle fermé.

17. Ne pas utiliser d’accessoires dont l’utilisation n’est pas

indiquée avec cet appareil.

18. Ne jamais employer d’essence de carburant de lanterne

de type essence, de kérosène, de produit d’allumage

pour charbon ou de liquides semblables pour démarrer

ou raviver un feu dans cet appareil. Garder tous ces

liquides à bonne distance de l’appareil pendant qu’il est

en service.

19. Les cendres doivent être déposées dans un conteneur

métallique possédant un couvercle hermétique. Le

conteneur fermé qui contient les cendres doit être placé

sur une surface non combustible ou sur le sol, très

loin des matériaux combustibles jusqu’à l’élimination

déﬁnitive des cendres. Si les cendres sont destinées à

être enterrées dans le sol ou dispersées autrement sur

place, elles devraient être conservées dans le conteneur

jusqu’à ce qu’elles soient complètement refroidies.

20. La créosote – Formation et nécessité de la retirer.

Lors de leur lente combustion, les granules de bois

produisent du goudron et d’autres vapeurs organiques

qui, combinés à l’humidité rejetée, forment la créosote.

Les vapeurs de créosote se condensent dans les tuyaux

d’évacuation d’un four relativement froid et dans la

hotte de ventilation d’un foyer à combustion lente. Il

en résulte une accumulation de résidus de créosote

dans les tuyaux d’évacuation et la hotte de ventilation.

Une fois mise à feu, cette créosote produit un feu

brûlant. Le tuyau d’évacuation des graisses doit être

inspecté au moins deux fois par an pour déterminer si

une accumulation de graisse et/ou de créosote s’est

produite. Si tel est le cas, cette accumulation doit être

enlevée pour réduire le risque d’incendie.

DANGER

Ne pas effectuer de travaux sur le barbecue lorsque celui-

ci est branché. L’électrocution qui risquerait de se produire

pourrait entraîner le décès ou des blessures graves.

Consignes De Montage Des Pieds
