Caring for the Pit Computer and Blower

Remove the pit computer after each use and store indoors. Do the same with the blower. The AC power

adapter can remain inside the smoker cabinet between uses, but if you anticipate long periods of inactivity for

your smoker, it is best to bring the AC adapter indoors as well.

Use caution to avoid stressing the wire connection on the blower when operating the smoker.

Caring for the Gaskets

After every few uses, gently wipe down the gaskets on the charcoal chute door and pit door. With proper care

the gaskets will last a long time.

Replacing the Gaskets

If the gaskets are damaged or no longer seal properly,

they should be replaced. The charcoal chute door and

pit door gaskets can be replaced without using any

special tools. Replacing the gasket on the back of the

ﬁre door requires the removal of 8 screws on the face

of the ﬁre door.

Removing the Fire Door

Remove the 8 screws from the face of the ﬁre door.

Pivot the hinges out of the way to remove the ﬁre

door from the cabinet.

Removing the Old Gaskets

The gasket attaches to the stainless steel on the doors

using small clips. Start by pulling the loose ends of

the old gaskets out of the hole where they overlap

and tuck in. Find the closest spring clip to the hole

you pulled the ends out of and pry the clip loose.

Continue along the length of the gasket, pulling

out one clip at a time until the gasket is completely

removed.

Installing the New Gaskets

Start by inserting the last clip on the new gasket into

the small hole closest to the larger hole where the

two ends will tuck in. Work along the length of the

gasket, snapping in one clip at a time until you have

made it back around to the tuck-hole. Use a ﬂat head

screwdriver to gently tuck both loose ends of the

gasket into the tuck-hole so that the gasket overlaps

itself.
