16. INSTALLING THE GREASE TRAY

Parts Required:
1 x Grease Tray (#24)
Installation:
• Slide the grease tray into the opening below the control board on the
front panel of the unit. Ensure the grease tray sits properly on the rails.
• The unit is now completely assembled.

17. CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE

• STANDARD OUTLET
This appliance requires 120 volt, 60hz, 1650w, 13.75 amp service. It
must be a 3-prong grounded plug. Ensure grounded end is not broken
off before use.
GFCI OUTLETS
•
This appliance will work on most GFCI outlets, with a recommended
size of 15 or 20 amp service. If your GFCI outlet is highly sensitive to
power surges, it will likely trip during the start-up phase of operation.
During the start-up phase, the element draws 200-700 watts of
electricity which can be too much power for a GFCI outlet to handle.
Each time it trips, it increases in sensitivity. If the GFCI keeps tripping,
replace the outlet or change to a non-GFCI outlet.
IMPORTANT: Disconnect unit from power source when not in use.
With today's lifestyle of striving to eat healthy and nutritious foods, a factor to consider is the importance of reducing fat intake.
One of the best ways to cut down on fats in your diet is to use a savory method of cooking like smoking. As this electric smoker
uses wood chips for smoking, the natural wood flavor is infused into the meats, reducing the need for high sugar-based sauces.

SMOKER ENVIRONMENT

1. WHERE TO SET-UP THE SMOKER
With all outdoor appliances, outside weather conditions play a big part in the performance of your smoker and the cooking
time needed to perfect your meals. The Pit Boss, because of its single wall construction, should be considered as a 2 to 3
season smoker, depending on where you live. All Pit Boss units should keep a minimum clearance of 305mm (12 inches) from
combustible constructions, and this clearance must be maintained while the smoker is operational. This appliance must not
be placed under overhead combustible ceiling or overhang. Keep your smoker in an area clear from combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
2. COLD WEATHER COOKING
As it becomes cooler outside, that does not mean that grilling season is over! The crisp cool air and heavenly aroma of smoked
foods will help cure your winter blues. Follow these suggestions on how to enjoy your smoker throughout the cooler months:
• If smoking at low temperatures fails, increase the temperature slightly to achieve the same results.
• Organize – Get everything you require ready in the kitchen before you head outdoors. During the winter, move your
smoker to an area that is out of the wind and direct cold. Check local bylaws regarding the proximity of your smoker
in relation to your home and/or other structures. Put everything you need on a tray, bundle up tight, and get it done!
• To help keep track of the outside temperature, place an outdoor thermometer close to your cooking area. Keep a log
