READ THIS CARE AND USE MANUAL CAREFULLY AND COMPLETELY BEFORE USING YOUR
POWER BURNER TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, BURN HAZARD OR OTHER INJURY. KEEP
THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
When properly cared for, your ™ Power Burner will give safe, reliable service for many
years. However, extreme care must be used since the Power Burner produces intense heat, which can
increase accident potential. When using this appliance, basic safety practices must be followed, includ-
ing but not limited to the following:
• Begin by ensuring proper assembly. A qualified technician should perform all other service.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the Power Burner unless specifically recommended in this manu-
al.
• All other service should be referred to and performed by a qualified technician.
• For personal safety, wear proper apparel Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn
while using this appliance Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while
cooking.
• Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close to any
grate, burner or hot surface until it has cooled down sufficiently. Fabrics may ignite and result in per-
sonal injury.
• Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause personal burns from
steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot por-
tions of the Power Burner grate.
• Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suita-
ble for Burner use. These types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only
on low or medium heat settings and according to their manufacturer’s directions.
• Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it.
• Avoid letting grease deposits collect in the bottom of the Power Burner by cleaning the grease tray
often. Never while the Power Burner is on or hot from recent use; pan will not come out.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line the Power Burner grates, nor to line the drip tray. This can severely
upset combustion airflow or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted
knobs, igniters and increased chance of personal injury.
• Never cook without the drip pan in place and pushed all the way to the back of the Power Burner.
Without the drip pan, hot grease can leak downward creating a fire or explosion hazard.
• Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the Power Burner is being used.
Never allow them to sit, stand or play on or around the Power Burner. Do not store items of interest
to children around or below the Power Burner or in the cart. Never allow children to crawl inside of
the cart.
• Do not heat unopened food containers that may cause the container to build-up pressure and burst.

5
• Never lean over a hot pot or pan while operating Power Burner.
(Safety, cont.)
• When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be certain you are de-
pressing the correct igniter button labeled for the burner you intend on using.
• When using the Power Burner do not touch the Power Burner grate or immediate surrounding area
as these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.
• For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean
them periodically for optimum performance. The burners will only operate in one position and must
mounted correctly for safe operation.
• Clean the Power Burner with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean
the Power Burner while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite when applied
to a hot surface.
• INSECT WARNING: Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this Power Burner and cause the
gas to flow from the a wrong of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition, which can cause a fire
to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the Power Burner and making it unsafe to oper-
ate. Inspect the Power Burner at least twice a year.
• Be sure all Power Burner controls are turned off and the Power Burner is cool before using any type
of aerosol cleaner on or around the Power Burner. The chemical that produces the spraying action
could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
• Do not operate the Power Burner under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well venti-
lated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or any enclosed areas.
• Keep the area surrounding the Power Burner free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible
fluids and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
gases and ventilation airways.
• Keep the back of the cart free and clear from debris (cart model).
• If the unit is stored indoors ensure that it is cool. If propane is used, the cylinder must be unhooked
and the propane cylinder stored outside in a well-ventilated area, out of reach of children.
• Never use the Power Burner in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area, oceanfront,
mountaintop, etc... a windbreak will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances.
• Keep any electrical supply cord, away from the heated areas of the Power Burner.
