WARNING
2
• Do not walk between cooker and propane tank as this creates a trip hazard. Tripping over the hose could overturn
the cooker or knock pot of hot liquid from cooker causing severe burns.
• Fully extend hose between propane tank and cooker to protect hose from contact with hot surfaces which could
create a leak. Never use a hose that shows signs of cracking or damage. Replace hose every two years.
• Only use flat bottom metal cookware and center evenly over burner. Never put an empty pot over an open flame;
the bottom of the pot could melt. Always have liquid in boiling pot prior to placing over flame. Do not use plastic,
ceramic or glassware. Any pot larger than the retaining ring will rest on top of the ring. Use caution to avoid
knocking pot from retaining ring.
• Do not fill cookware beyond one-half full with liquid to allow room for the addition of food and to avoid boil-over
of hot liquid. In some cases, depending on the weight or size of food, even less liquid will be required.
• Should oil spill-over/boil-over occur, be sure to check that flame was not extinguished by liquid. Gas could
accumulate creating a highly flammable and very dangerous situation. Allow all gas to dissipate prior to
relighting cooker.
• Smoking oil is an indication that the oil is too hot and may ignite. Reduce flame immediately to avoid igniting oil.
Never exceed 375° F.
• Frozen food should be completely thawed before placing in hot oil. Pat food dry before placing in hot oil. Never
add water or food that is dripping wet to hot oil as this could cause oil to splash and cause severe burns.
• Use extreme care when removing food from hot oil or liquid. Remove food from pot SLOWLY. As contents may
be heavy and oil may drip or splatter during removal, extra attention must be used during this process to avoid
overturning pot of hot liquid.
• To remove the Turkey Stand, grip the Turkey Hanger firmly with both hands and insert through hole at top of
Turkey Stand. Only use the Turkey Hanger provided with this stand. Use of any other item or hanger could lead to
personal injury.
• Always remove the Turkey Stand SLOWLY using Turkey Hanger from boiling pot to allow hot liquid to drain. Lifting
Turkey Stand out of pot too quickly may cause hot liquid to splash out of boiling pot and could result in severe
burns for anyone near the pot.
• When lifting Turkey Stand out of pot, be sure to lift straight up and attain proper clearance above rim to prevent
overturning pot with hot liquid.
• After food is cooked, turn off cooker and remove food. Allow cooker, pot and liquid to cool completely
before handling.
• Children can fall into pot and drown in even a small amount of liquid. Keep boiling pot out of reach of children. Do
not store pot with liquid inside.
• Do not use or store cooker near gasoline or other flammable liquids, gases or where flammable vapors may
be present.
• Do not use this cooker and boiling pot for other than their intended purpose.
• Only use replacement/accessory parts manufactured by The Brinkmann Corporation. Repairs should be
performed by The Brinkmann Corporation.
• Properly dispose of all packaging materials.
