Grill Location
The Kalamazoo Hybrid Fire Grill is designed for easy placement on an outdoor
patio or deck. It is recommended that the grill be placed on a non-combustible
surface.
Choosing a Location:
Important considerations for grill placement include
exposure to wind, proximity to foot traffic and areas where people congregate
and access to the gas supply.
Do not place the grill in a location where the hood opening is likely to be exposed to strong wind.
Do not place the grill where it is likely to be bumped into or inadvertently touched by passers by. It is
recommended that the countertop or other surface extend 9 inches beyond the sides and back of the grill as a
safety clearance to protect people from injury.
Do not place the grill on a surface that is unable to safely support the weight of the grill or may cause it to be
unstable.
Never place the grill where the gas hose creates a safety hazard (see Figure 2). Tripping over an exposed gas
hose may create a gas leak or create other serious safety hazards.
Never locate the grill in a building, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas.
The grill is not intended to be installed in or on a boat or recreational vehicle.
For ease of use and safe operation, it is recommended the grill be placed on a
level surface.
REQUIRED CLEARANCES
IMPORTANT: Do not build the grill into a combustible enclosure.
Maintain at least 6 inches of clearance between the sides and back of
the grill and any combustible surface, or use an insulating surround
provided by Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet. NEVER place the grill
underneath an overhead combustible structure or surface.
