Keep in mind that a strong gust of wind could blow the smoker box or fire box lids shut at any
time, so keep hands back and keep children at a safe distance from the grill/smoker. Do not
leave the smoker unattended with these lids in the open position. If the lid is slammed shut by
the wind, it could easily crush or sever a finger.
