1. Cut the insulation out of the hole for the smoke generator hookup.
2. Using a 3" hole saw, drill a hole in the center of the smoke generator hookup from the inside.
    a. Should be centered at 13" from front and 16" up from bottom of the smokehouse
    b. Only drill the leader hole, do not cut the 3" hole.
3. Using that hole as a guide, cut the 3" hole in the side of the smokehouse for the smoke generator from the outside.
4. Line up the smoke generator inlet in the 3" hole so that the weld is facing down, mark and drill pilot holes then secure with self-tapping screws or rivets.
    a. If you did not purchase the smoke generator inlet from The Sausage Maker, you can use Galvanized 3" flue or duct piping

5. Attach the smoke generator by inserting the tubing on the side of the smoke generator into the smoke generator inlet.

6. Remove only the wing nuts and lock washers from the blower plate assembly.
    a. The two remaining nuts should be on the top right and lower left when you are facing the blower hole.

Operating Procedure
1. Remove metal container (sawdust box) from the smoke generator
2. Add appropriate amount of sawdust
    a. NOTE: Full container will smoke for approximately 3 hours
3. Slightly dampen sawdust. Use water spray bottle if available, stirring the sawdust thoroughly to obtain uniform dampness.
4. Insert electrical heating element into the center of the sawdust, place container in smoke generator, then plug the element cord into a 110V outlet.
5. With the door still off the smoke generator, wait for the sawdust to begin to smolder.
    a. NOTE: The amount of time for sawdust to smolder will vary depending on the amount of sawdust being used.
6. After smoldering is achieved, install front door and unplug element.
    a. NOTE: Leaving heating element in container will ease the process of re-igniting the sawdust if necessary. Also, a small crack in the door will aid in the circulation of air in the smoke generator.
7. Turn on the blower.
