LOCATING AND ASSEMBLING THE GRILL
When determining a suitable location for your grill, take into account concerns such as exposure
to wind, rain, sprinklers, proximity to traffic paths, and keeping any gas supply line runs as short
as possible.
Locate the grill only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage,
breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. Never
locate the grill over, under, or next to unprotected combustible construction.
During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of heat and smoke. The grill is designed to take in
cool air at the front control panel area, and send the combustion products and smoke out the
exhaust gap at the rear of the hood. It is important to maintain this flow at all times. Using the
grill in windy areas can disrupt this proper flow and cause damage to your grill, or result in burn
hazards to the user. See Fig. 1 for details.
When installing a grill or other gas appliance into an enclosure (island), the enclosure must be
constructed with ventilation openings to avoid accumulation of gas should there be a leak. See
the INSTALLATION section of this manual for details.
Ensure all packaging, straps, etc. have been removed from the grill. Remove any tie-down wires
from the burners.
Your Hestan grill has provision for mounting onto a mobile cart if you choose to do so. Contact
your Hestan dealer for the appropriate cart for your grill. If your grill is mounted on a cart,
engage the brakes on the casters to prevent movement of the cart.
