Lighting Instructions (For Stoves
with Ignitor):
Do not lean over LP cooker while
lighting.
1. Remove all appliances from the
burner to create a free flow of air.
2. Turn regulator control valve to
OFF position.
3. Fully open LP bottle valve.
4. Turn control valve to high
position. Cooker will ignite. Adjust
controls to desired temperature.
5. If ignition does not occur in
5 seconds, turn the burner
control(s) off, wait 5 minutes, and
repeat the lighting procedures.
If built-in ignitor will not light, turn
control knob to high and ignite
using a long nose ignitor.
Curing of paints and parts will
produce an odor only on first use.
Ignitor Electrode Adjustment
The ignitor electrode should be
positioned directly over the burner
port holes. There should be about
1/8” gap between the electrode and
the burner ports.
Burner Flame Check
• Light burner;
rotate knob(s)
from HIGH to
LOW. You
should see a
smaller flame
in LOW position
than seen on
HIGH. Always check flame prior to
each use. The air damper mounted
on the back of your burner helps to
control the amount of primary air
that mixes with the LP gas. A blue
flame with little or no yellow flame
provides the best heat. Adjust the
air damper by turning it clockwise
or counterclockwise until the
desired flame is achieved.
Turning LP Cooker Off
• Turn all knobs to OFF position.
Turn LP tank OFF by turning hand-
wheel clockwise to a full stop.
Hose Check
• Before each use, check to see if
hoses are cut or worn. 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.
Air Damper
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
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.
