CARE AND MAINTENANCE
BURNER FLAME CHECK
Light the burner and adjust the fl ame with the
regulator control valve. Always check the fl ame
prior to each use. The air damper mounted on
the burner helps control the amount of primary
air that mixes with the LP gas. A blue fl ame with
little or no yellow fl ame will provide the best heat.
Adjust the air damper by turning it clockwise or
counterclockwise to achieve the desired fl ame.
PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE WILL
KEEP YOUR APPLIANCE OPERATING
SMOOTHLY
CLEAN THOROUGHLY AFTER EVERY USE
NOTE: Clean the entire appliance each year
and tighten all hardware 1-2 times a year or
more depending on frequency of use.
1. Turn the appliance OFF at the regulator
control valve and at the LP tank valve
before cleaning. Check that there is no
fl ame or gas smell and that all valves are
in the OFF position. Make sure that the
regulator is properly disconnected from the
LP tank prior to any cleaning.
2. Any component that has been in contact
with food must be hand-washed with warm
soapy water and a nylon pad. If the cooking
pot(s) have black soot cooked onto the
outside fi nish it can be scrubbed off with
steel wool. DO NOT spray oven cleaner on
aluminum cooking pots to remove grease
or soot, as it will cause the fi nish to become
dull.
If food remains stuck to the Twist & Drain
TM
basket or the poultry stand, place in hot
water and allow to soak. After cooling, scrub
with nylon pad.
If hard water causes darkening on the
interior of the cooking pot(s), fi ll to the level
of the darkened area with a mixture of
water, cream of tartar and vinegar (1 quart
of water, 2 tablespoons cream of tartar, 1/2
cup vinegar), boil for 10 minutes.
3. Confi rm that all components are completely
dry before using or placing in storage.
4. It is recommended to thoroughly clean the
appliance prior to every use.
5. Store all components in a clean, dry location
when not in use.
