Method 4 - Wood deck
After assembling the base according to the assembly
instructions, position the base assembly on your deck for
anchoring.
ƽ CAUTION: Combustible materials should never be
within 24 inches of the top, bottom, back or sides of
the barbecue. Do not locate under overhead
combustible construction.

CAUTION: For a deck installation, it is recommended
to anchor one screw into a joist.
Note - With the lid open, the depth of the barbecue is
28 inches, front to back.

minimum of a 3/8 inch x 1 1/2 inch lag bolt with a 3/8 inch
flat washer. Figure 10.
