TURN CLOCKWISE TO
CLOSE TANK VALVE
TURN COUNTER-CLOCKWISE
TO OPEN TANK VALVE
Note: Modern propane tanks, if not connected, will not release gas even if
the valve is open. For safety, however, always have the valve closed on a
disconnected tank.
CHECKING THE BURNER
Spiders and small insects sometimes create webs and nests inside the
burner. Consequently, the obstruction of gas flow can lead to "flashback":
a build up of gas which ignites all at once. Flashback can cause serious
damage to your oven and unsafe operating conditions. Thankfully, they are
easy to fix and avoid.
Check and clean the burner tube (see page 13): before initially using your
oven; once a month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most
active; and when your oven has not been used for an extended period.
If you suspect a flashback: Close the tank valve, wait for the fire to
extinguish, and turn the control knob to OFF. Once the oven is cold,
disconnect the tank and inspect the burner tube, hose and connections.
Clear all debris to allow the free flow of gas.
LIGHTING THE OVEN
Remove the door and any items from inside the oven. Remove the top grid
and stone, if not using them, but always leave the bottom grid in place.
Close the chimney. Open the valve on the tank.
