CARBON MONOXIDE
INHALATION HAZARD
1. The Propane Stove is an
unvented LP Gas-red
stove. It must NEVER be
used inside vehicles,
campers, in a house, or any other
sealed structure. Carbon monoxide
is produced during operation and is
DEADLY in a closed environment.
Early signs of carbon monoxide
poisoning resemble the u, with
headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If
you have these signs, the Propane
Stove may not be working properly or
is improperly vented. Get fresh air
immediately.
Work Area Safety
Close supervision is necessary when 1.
any appliance is used by or near
children.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or 2.
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Caution must be used when moving 3.
an appliance.
Keep the work area well lit. Make 4.
sure there is adequate surrounding

workspace. Keep the work area free
of obstructions and other debris.
Do not use this product in a damp or 5.
wet location.
Hot Surface Safety
1. Do not touch hot surfaces.
Use handles or knobs and
oven mittens.
Allow burners to cool before touching 2.
them.
Do not operate the stove near draper-3.
ies, curtains, and walls. These am-
mable materials may catch re.
Provide adequate ventilation space 4.
on all sides of the appliance, espe-
cially near vents. Inadequate ventila-
tion may cause re or damage to the
appliance.
Keep multiple ABC class re extin-5.
guishers nearby. Monitor the appli-
ance while in use.
Foodborne Illness Safety
Before every use, thoroughly clean 1.
the appliance (see “Cleaning” sec-
tion for instructions) and wash your
hands.
Follow Food and Drug Administration 2.
(FDA) food safety recommendations
for cooking and food handling (www.
fda.gov). Also, refer to the following
safety information, taken from FDA’s
website:
Cooking times (if provided) are a.
estimated. Verify that all food is
properly cooked. Steam, roast, or
otherwise heat all pieces of meat
and eggs to an internal temperature
of at least 160° F
1
.
Keep hot food hot (above 140° F) b.
and cold food cold (below 40° F).
Do not let perishable food sit out
longer than 2 hours (1 hour in tem-
peratures above 90° F).
General Safety
Service and repair should be done only 1.
by a qualied service technician. The
Propane Stove should be inspected
before each use and at least annually
by a qualied service technician. More
frequent cleaning may be required
as necessary. It is imperative that
the Burner(s), Temperature Control
Knob(s), and circulating fuel/air
passageways of the Propane Stove
should be kept clean.
The warnings, precautions, and in-2.
structions discussed in this instruction
manual cannot cover all possible con-
ditions and situations that may occur.
It must be understood by the operator
that common sense and caution are
factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the
operator.

RISK OF FIRE AND/OR
EXPLOSION
Do not store extra propane tanks in 1.
the vicinity of the Propane Stove or
any other appliance.
If gas is smelled during operation, 2.
immediately close the valve on the
propane tank. Propane gas is odor-
less. An odor-making agent is added
to propane/LP gas to enable you to
smell the gas if it may be leaking.
If the Propane Stove shuts off dur-3.
ing operation, close the valve on the
propane tank. Check the amount of
gas in the tank and wait 5 minutes for
the gas to clear before restarting. If it
continues to shut off during operation,
have it serviced by a qualied techni-
cian.
Do not place the Propane Stove 4.
within 15 feet of ammable objects
such as wood, trees, overhangs, and
umbrellas. This stove also requires a
clearance of at least 3 feet from non-
ammable materials to allow proper
combustion.
If you smell gas: 5. Shut off gas to
the appliance. Extinguish any open
ame. Do not light a match. Do not
turn on an electrical switch. Evacu-
ate the area at once. Call for profes-
sional help.
Keep solid combustibles such as 6.
paper or cardboard a safe distance
away from the Propane Stove. Do
not use the Stove in spaces which
do or may contain volatile or airborne
combustibles, or products such as
gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust
particles or unknown chemicals.
Only operate the Propane Stove with 7.
the propane tank in its vertical upright
position, on a noncombustible sur-
face. While in operation, do not tilt or
lean the propane tank on its side.
Do not turn the tank upside down, 5.
not even when it seems empty, as
this may cause clogging of valves
and components which could lead to
dangerous are-ups or re.
This Propane Stove must be po-6.
sitioned and operated so that it
is not directly exposed to water
spray, rain, or dripping water.
This Propane Stove must be used only 7.
with HD-5 propane gas. The propane
tank should hold no more than 20
pounds of LP gas. Do not use bulk
tanks of larger capacity. Do not use
any other fuel. The Stove must be
used only with a vapor withdrawal LP
propane tank equipped with a POL
valve. The tank must be constructed
and marked in such a way as to
comply with the specications for LP
gas tanks by the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT).

the beginning of this manual
including all text under
subheadings therein before set
up or use of this product.
TO PREVENT
SERIOUS INJURY
OR DEATH FROM
EXPLOSION, FIRE OR
CARBON MONOXIDE
INHALATION:
Read and understand all
warnings in this manual
before operation.
BEFORE EACH USE,1. inspect the
general condition of the appliance.
Check for loose screws, misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts,
cracked or broken parts, damaged
hoses or any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
Locate the Propane Stove and pro-2.
pane tank on a clean, dry, level sur-
face capable of supporting the weight
of the Stove and propane tank. Keep
the Propane Stove and propane tank
away from other ammable objects.
WARNING: DO NOT USE INDOORS!
Turn the Temperature Control Knobs 3.
on the Propane Stove off. Open the
gas valve on the propane tank and
check and smell for gas leaks. Per-
form a bubble test by applying warm
soapy water over every joint, regula-
tor, tting, and anywhere else there
may be a possible leak. Observe
carefully to see if bubbles expand, in-
dicating a leak. A large leak can blow
the soapy solution away instead of
forming bubbles. If leaks are found,
do not use the Propane Stove until
the leaks have been stopped. After
testing, close the gas valve on the
propane tank.
Side Burner Use
