NOTE: Pit fires can be avoided altogether if the cooker is kept clean and free from fat
buildup during or between cooks. Changing drip trays during a cook cycle will help keep
flammable fats in the cooker to a minimum. Cooking temperatures should be kept low
enough to avoid ignition. You are dealing with an open fire when you are cooking on
charcoal and wood.
There are hot surfaces on all parts of the cooker before during and after cooking.
Always wear protective clothing when tending the cooker or attempting to extinguish a fire or
dumping a firebox in the proper ash receptacle at the end of a cook.
Always be ready to call your local Fire Company in the case of an emergency before the
situation gets out of control.
CAUTION: fire danger is always present, even in the best of conditions. There is no
substitute for continuous safety scrutiny on the part of the user.
Never use the cooker inside of your home. Deadly carbon monoxide gas may be produced as
a byproduct of incomplete combustion of carbon (charcoal).
Under no circumstances should this cooker be used as a source of creature comfort or warmth
(even in an emergency). It should never be used or installed near where people will be
sleeping. Carbon monoxide is a serious poison and has caused death in many people when
someone failed to respect its lethal and present danger. Carbon monoxide combines with the
blood many times faster than the life sustaining oxygen from the air that we breathe.
Never operate a charcoal or wood burning appliance inside a tent or a building without proper
ventilation which will include a stove pipe connection from the cooker through a wall or roof
to the outside of the structure. Fresh air must always be present and plentiful, from open
windows and doors. Seek the help of a professional to insure safety.
NOTE: Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless and toxic gas. Because it is impossible to
see, taste or smell, CO can kill you before you are aware of its prescence. At lower levels of
exposure, CO causes mild effects that are often mistaken for the flu, including: headaches,
dizziness, disorientation, nausea and fatigue. Carbon monoxide burns with a violet flame and
is slightly lighter than air at room temperature and above. At 32° F it is heavier than air.
CAUTION: There is no substitute for safe operation. ALWAYS PROVIDE PROPER
VENTILATION. USE THIS APPLIANCE OUTSIDE SO THAT CARBON MONOXIDE
WILL NOT COLLECT WHERE PEOPLE OR ANIMIALS WILL BE IN DANGER.
