UNLOADING THE SMOKER
Smokers Shipped via Common Carrier
Remove the crated smoker from the truck using the appropriate forklift. Note any damage to the crate, smoker
or accessories. Do not sign the delivery bill until the smoker has been inspected and any damage noted
on the delivery bill.
The smoker is shipped bolted to a wooden pallet with an industrial cardboard carton. Once the smoker is in a
level and safe place remove the cardboard carton and open the product loading doors. Plastic zip ties secure a
cardboard box and permanent legs to one of the product racks of the smoker. Remove the cardboard box and
permanent legs from the product rack. The smoker is secured to the wooden pallet with a bolt on each leg.
After removing the 4 bolts securing the smoker to the wooden pallet use the appropriate forklift to lift the
smoker off of the wooden pallet. With the wooden pallet removed from under the smoker, and the smoker still
lifted by the forklift, install the permanent legs on the smoker. The permanent legs slide into the leg receivers
on the bottom of the smoker and should be secured tightly using the provided set screws. After securing the
permanent legs, slowly lower the smoker to the ground.
Smokers Shipped via Contract Hauler
The driver will unload the smoker from the trailer. Once the smoker is in a level and safe place remove the
white protective wrap from the outside of the smoker and open the product loading doors. Plastic zip ties se-
cure a cardboard box and permanent legs to one of the product racks of the smoker. Remove the cardboard
box and permanent legs from the product rack. Using the appropriate forklift, lift the smoker and remove the
delivery casters from the smoker and install the permanent legs. The permanent legs slide into the leg receiv-
ers on the bottom of the smoker and should be secured tightly using the provided set screws. After securing
the permanent legs, slowly lower the smoker to the ground.
