-
Before installing the side burner in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number,
serial number and type of side burner (e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place.
-
If the side burner is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he shows you
where your gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily
accessible. If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water
solution. Never check for gas leaks with an open flame.
-
Use side burner, as purchased, only with LP (propane) gas and the regulator / flare adapter
supplied. A conversion kit must be purchased for use with natural gas.
Notice:
We strongly recommend professional installation and hookup of the Gas side burner. These
instructions will provide you with the measurements necessary for you or your builder to construct a
masonry structure to house your outdoor gas side burner.
IMPORTANT:
Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.
Location
Locate the side burner only in a well ventilated area. Never locate the side burner in a building, garage,
breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. During heavy
use, the side burner will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
Clearance
-
TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A minimum of 8.5" (217mm) clearance from the back
of the side burner is recommended. It is desirable to allow at least 2"(50.8mm) side clearance to
non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. The side burner can be
placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface. The side
burner exhausts combustion products and cooking greases to the back. Never locate the side
burner where this exhaust will be difficult to clean.
-
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A Minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the sides
and a minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the back must be maintained from the side burner above and
below the cooking surface to adjacent vertical combustible construction.
