Working with the Fire Door and Ash Pan

Safely Operating the Fire Door

 

ƒ

Wear protective, dry, insulated gloves when 
touching the fire door or ball valve.

 

ƒ

To open the door, smoothly lift up the ball 
valve (not the handle) with a gloved hand. Lift 
all the way until the fire door is caught on the 
fire door latch.

 

ƒ

NEVER open or close the fire door 
by grabbling onto the blower. Always 
hold onto the brass ball valve directly.

 

ƒ

Always check the floor of the cabinet in front 
of the fire door opening, and remove any 
coals or debris that might interfere with a 
proper seal on the closed fire door.

 

ƒ

To close, use one gloved hand to hold the 
ball valve securely. Use the other gloved hand 
to lift up on the fire door catch and release 
the door. Lower the door down to the closed 
position.

 

ƒ

Gently push down on the ball valve after 
closing the door to ensure the fire door is 
tightly sealed over the fire chamber.

Safely Handling the Ash Pan

The ash pan tool is designed to help you safely pull 
the ash pan out of the firebox to add wood. We have 
provided a convenient slot to hang the ash pan tool 
from the computer bracket inside the cabinet. This 
keeps it close-at-hand when needed.

 

ƒ

Wear protective, dry, insulated gloves when working with the ash pan.

 

ƒ

With the fire door open, insert the 90° hook on the end of the ash pan tool through the slot in the 
front of the ash pan so that the flat face of the ash pan tool rests flush against the face of the ash pan.

 

ƒ

Lift the ash pan out of the fire chamber to add wood chunks.

 

ƒ

If you need to set the ash pan down, be sure to set it on a fireproof surface that will not be 
damaged or discolored by heat. The ash pan can be extremely hot when the smoker is in use.

 

ƒ

If you set the ash pan down, remove the ash pan tool from the ash pan. The weight of the 
handle on the ash pan tool can be enough to cause the ash pan to tip over, spilling hot coals.

 

ƒ

If you want to empty the ash pan while it contains hot coals or fresh ash, do so only into an 
appropriate ash bucket designed to safely contain hot coals.

 

ƒ

Use the ash pan tool to return the ash pan to the fire chamber.

 

ƒ

Hang the ash pan tool from its designated slot on the computer bracket. Remember, the tool can 
remain hot for some time after using it with the ash pan.
