Before You Cook- Positioning Your Grill/Side Burner
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Important considerations for all grill/side burner placements include exposure to wind,
proximity to foot traffic or areas where people congregate.
Freestanding Grills/Side Burners: position the appliance so that the prevailing winds blow
into the front panel, supporting the proper front to back airflow.
Built-In Grills/Side Burners: located in areas with a prevailing wind, the appliance should be
protected by a wind barrier.
Winds hitting the back of the grill/side burner, may cause issues, as proper ventilation may
be impeded.
Be sure wind does not blow into the back of the grill hood.
DO NOT place the grill/side burner where it is likely to be bumped into or inadvertently
touched by passersby.
DO NOT place the grill/side burner on a surface that is unable to safely support the weight of
the unit as it may topple or tip over.
DO NOT place the grill/side burner on any surface that would allow it to change position
easily or inadvertently.
When in use, if applicable, always have the casters in the locked position.
For natural gas and bulk propane models, NEVER place the grill/side burner where the gas
hose creates a safety hazard. Tripping over an exposed gas hose may create a gas leak,
cause the appliance to tip or topple over or create other serious safety hazards.
NEVER locate the grill/side burner in a building, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed
areas.
