Hey guys, I'm not very technical and thought I'd ask you all your opinon:

I have a Humphrey Battle box that's fairly new (purchased this year)

I noticed lots of smoke escaping the top right corner of the door. When I push the door to the touch it seems the smoke leak stops. I dont know how I can tighten the door (as I said, Im not very handy!)

Any opinions or suggestions would be appreciated.

Don't know how to rotate the image here, it seemed ok on my screen.
 
On the frame of the smoker where the "hook" part connects, on the underside will be a really small hex head (maybe 3/8"?)loosen it slightly, then slide it back a few grooves and tighten. Try closing the door again. if you do too much, the door wont shut.

This nut needs to be checked every now and then anyways. it can loosen from repeated door opening/slamming. Not long ago I went to adjust the door and found mine just plain loose

5/16" nut driver is perfect to make the adjustment
