Replace damaged hose assembly
before using appliance. Use only
valve/ hose / regulator specified by
manufacturer. See product sheet
for hose & regulator information.
Cleaning The Burner
NOTE: Spiders and small insects
can spin webs and build nests inside
the burner. This especially occurs
in late summer and fall before frost
when spiders are most active. These
nests can obstruct gas flow and
cause a fire in and around the burner
and orifice. Such a fire can cause
operator injury and serious damage
to the appliance. To help prevent a
blockage and ensure full heat output,
clean and inspect burner tube often
(once or twice a month). NOTE:
Water or air pressure will not
normally clear a spider web.
Steps for cleaning the Burner:
1. Remove orifice/valve from burner.
2. Look inside the burner tube for
nests, webs, or mud.
3. To remove the above obstructions,
use an accessory flexible venturi
brush or bend a small hook on
one end of a long flexible wire or
use an air hose.
4. Inspect and clean the burner
if needed.
5. Reattach orifice/hose to burner.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Correct care and maintenance
will keep your appliance operating
smoothly. Clean regularly as
determined by the amount of use.
NOTE: Clean the entire appliance
each year and tighten all hardware
on a regular basis (1-2 times a
year or more depending on usage).
Cleaning should be done where
detergents won’t harm patio, lawn,
or the like.
Suggested Cleaning Materials
• Mild dish washing liquid detergent
• Wire brush
• Nylon cleaning pad
• Hot water
• Paper clip
• Soft brass bristled brush
Component Cleaning:
• BURNER: Wire brush loose
corrosion from burner exterior.
Clean clogged gas port holes with
an opened paper clip. Replace
corroded or damaged burners that
would emit excess gas.
• COOKING SURFACES, POTS
AND PANS: Clean the cooking
surface with soapy water and a
nylon cleaning pad.
• After appliance has cooled, wipe
areas where paint and finish have
burned off to minimize rusting.
Using a Thermometer
Prior to lighting, position
thermometer clip so that at least
1/2” of thermometer tip is
submerged
in oil. Reposition thermometer
as necessary to cook. Continue to
use thermometer until burner is
turned off.
If Frying:
• Follow instructions provided by
the appliance manufacturer.
• When cooking with oil or grease, a
thermometer must be used.
• Introduction of water from any
source into the cooking oil or
grease may cause overflow and
severe burns from hot oil and water
splatter. When frying with oil and
grease, all food products MUST
be completely thawed and towel
dried to remove water before being
immersed in the fryer.
• Be sure thermometer is in good
working condition. To check the
thermometer, insert it into a pot
of boiling water and ensuring that
it registers approximately 212°F
± 20°F (100°C ± 10°C). If it does
not function properly, obtain a
replacement thermometer specified
by the manufacturer before using
the appliance.
• Do not over fill the pot with
cooking liquid. Never fill appliance
more than half full of cooking
liquid or past the maximum fill line
(a permanent marking on fryer).
• If cooking liquid has spilled
and ignited, do not attempt to
extinguish with water. Immediately
turn gas supply OFF at the supply
cylinder and:
• Extinguish flames using a
BC type fire extinguisher as
recommended by the fryer
manufacturer; or
• Smother flames with dirt or
sand.
• In case there is a fire, call the
local fire department or dial
911.
• To avoid accidental burns from
burner flame or hot cooking
liquid, turn the burner off
before inserting or removing
food from the fryer.
• When removing food from
the fryer, be sure to avoid
burns from hot cooking liquid
drippings.
CAutION
All cleaning and maintenance
should only be done when the
appliance is cool and with the fuel
supply turned off at the LP cylinder.
DO NOT clean any part in a self-
cleaning oven. The extreme heat
will damage the finish.
This appliance is not intended for
use as a poultry fryer.
