RATING LABEL

The rating label contains important information about your Hestan appliance such as the model

and serial number, gas type and manifold pressure, the BTU rating for each burner type, and the

minimum installation clearances.

PRECAUTIONS - BEFORE YOU USE YOUR POWER BURNER

When properly cared for, your Hestan Power Burner will provide safe, reliable service for many

years. However, extreme care must be used since the Power Burner produces intense heat, which

can cause serious injury or even death if the instructions are not followed carefully. When using

this appliance, basic safety practices must be followed as outlined below.

1. NEVER LEAVE THE POWER BURNER UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.

2. 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. Never allow children to crawl

underneath.

3. Never operate the Power Burner while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

4. 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 as described in the INSTALLATION section of this manual.

5. The Power Burner shall be used only outdoors and shall not be used in buildings, garages,

sheds, breezeways, or any enclosed areas. Do not operate the Power Burner under

unprotected, combustible construction. Use only in well-ventilated areas. See the

INSTALLATION section of this manual.

6. Do not use the Power Burner unless a leak check has been performed on all gas connections.

See the GAS CONNECTIONS section of this manual.

7. If the Power Burner is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that they show

you where your gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is easily

accessible. If you smell gas, check for leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water

solution. Never check gas leaks with an open flame. See the GAS CONNECTIONS section of

this manual.

8. Check the regulator, hoses, burner ports, and venturi / valve section carefully. Always turn off

gas at the source (tank or supply line) prior to inspecting parts.

Hestan Outdoor Power Burner rating label is located on the underside of the drip pan.

9. When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be certain you

are turning the correct knob labeled for the burner you intend to use. If any burner does not

light, or goes out during operation, turn off all gas control knobs, and wait five (5) minutes

before attempting to re-light. See the LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual.

10. Keep any electrical supply cord away from the heated areas of the Power Burner. The cord

is provided with a 3-prong grounding plug which should not be removed or altered. Do not

use this appliance with an ungrounded, 2-prong adapter. The cord must be plugged into a

properly grounded GFCI-protected outlet. See INSTALLATION section of this manual.

11. Spiders and insects like to nest in the burners, venturis, valves, and orifices of a Power Burner,

disrupting the gas flow in the burner. This very dangerous condition can cause a fire behind

the control panel, damaging the Power Burner and risking personal injury. If your Power

Burner has been unused for a long time, inspect and clean the burners, venturis, valves,

and orifices. It is recommended you inspect your Power Burner at least twice a year. See

BURNER ADJUSTMENT section of this manual for details.

12. Keep the areas 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 (front).

13. Never attempt to move the Power Burner grate or center plate when hot. When in use,

portions of the Power Burner are hot enough to cause severe burns.

14. Always have an “ABC” type fire extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease

fire with water or other liquids.

15. Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves while cooking with the Power Burner.

They could ignite. For personal safety, wear proper apparel while cooking. Some synthetic

fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.

16. Never let pot holders, covers, or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close

to any cooking grate, burner, or hot surface until it has cooled down sufficiently. Fabrics

may ignite and result in personal injury. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders

on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of

potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the cooking grate.

17. Never touch the cooking grate or immediate surrounding metal surfaces with your bare

hands while cooking with the Power Burner, as these areas become extremely hot and could

cause burns. Use only the handles and knobs provided for operation of the Power Burner.

18. Protect your hands with an insulated glove or mitt when operating the Power Burner. Always

keep your face away and open lids slowly on pots and pans to allow heat and steam to escape

before fully opening. Never lean over an open hot Power Burner.

19. The Power Burner metal cover must be removed while lighting. Leaving the cover in place

while lighting can result in an explosion and personal injury, or death. Never lean over a

Power Burner or look directly into the burner when attempting to light. See the LIGHTING

INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual.

20. Do not heat unopened food containers (cans) as pressure build-up will cause the container to

explode.

21. Do not use aluminum foil to line the burner bowl or the drip tray. This will alter the airflow

to the burner or trap excessive heat in the control area. This can melt control knobs, wiring,

or igniters, and increase the risk of personal injury. Such damage is specifically excluded from

our warranty.

22. Never use the Power Burner without the drip tray in place and pushed all the way to the

back. Without the drip tray, hot grease or oil from a spill-over can leak downward creating a

fire or explosion hazard.

PRECAUTIONS - BEFORE YOU USE YOUR POWER

BURNER

(continued)

23. Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle or dispose

of it. Avoid letting excessive grease deposits collect by cleaning the drip tray often. Never

clean while the Power Burner is on, or hot from recent use.

24. Cooking excessively fatty meats and oils will cause flare-ups or grease fires. Damage caused

by them or by the Power Burner being left unattended, are not covered under the terms and

conditions of our warranty.

25. Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils

are suitable for Power Burner use. However, these types of materials may break with sudden

temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings, and according to their

manufacturers’ directions.

26. Do not repair or replace any part of the Power Burner unless specifically recommended in this

manual. All other warranty and non-warranty service should be referred to and performed by

a qualified technician.

27. 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 operate only in one

position and must be mounted correctly for safe operation. See BURNER ADJUSTMENT

section of this manual.

28. 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. Be sure all Power Burner controls are turned off and

the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance.

The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or

cause metal parts to corrode. Clean and perform general maintenance on the Power Burner

twice a year. Watch for corrosion, cracks, or insect activity. See the CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE section of this manual.

LOCATING AND ASSEMBLING THE POWER BURNER

When determining a suitable location for your Power Burner, 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 Power Burner only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the Power Burner in a

building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation

system. Never locate the Power Burner over, under, or next to unprotected combustible

construction.

Using the Power Burner in windy areas can disrupt the flame, especially on low or simmer

settings. This may cause nuisance sparking of the igniters. Relocate to a less windy area. If the

Power Burner is mounted in an enclosure (island), you may need to build a wind-break to avoid

this issue in the future.

When installing a Power Burner 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. Keep the area underneath the

Power Burner free of debris.

Ensure all packaging, straps, etc. have been

removed from the Power Burner. Remove any

tie-down wires from the burners.

Ensure that the burner cap is mounted correctly

on the center burner ring. Do not operate the

Power Burner without the burner cap in place

(see Fig. 1).

Figure 1

INSTALLATION

CLEARANCES:

TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

A minimum of 4” (10 cm) clearance from the sides and back of the Power Burner to non-

combustible construction is required. This is especially important when cooking with large

diameter pots.

TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

This appliance must be installed in a NON-COMBUSTIBLE ENCLOSURE (ISLAND) ONLY. It

should NOT be installed on, over, or next to unprotected combustible construction. Do not

use this appliance under unprotected overhead combustible surfaces. The countertop, and

everything under the countertop must be of non-combustible materials. A minimum clearance to

vertical combustible material is 9” (23 cm) on the sides and the rear of the appliance.

As an example, if you have an island with a stucco or tiled surface and wood-frame construction

beneath, the wood is considered combustible, even though the Power Burner is touching the

stucco or tile surface, which is non-combustible. In extreme circumstances, the wood could

potentially get hot enough to burn. Therefore, ALL the construction must be non-combustible.

Adjacent walls above the cooking surface should also be non-combustible. If those adjacent

surfaces are made of combustible material, they must be outside this 9” (23 cm) zone. The Power

Burner has a very high output, and if installed in a confined area with a large pot on top, the

potential to heat up adjacent surfaces is dangerous and could result in property damage.

GAS AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

GAS SUPPLY

The local gas authority or supplier should be consulted at the installation planning stage in order

to establish the availability of an adequate supply of gas (NG or LP). If it is a new installation,

have the gas authorities or supplier check the meter size and piping to assure that the unit is

supplied with the necessary amount of gas supply and pressure to operate the unit(s).

Gas connections should be made by a qualified plumber, or your professional outdoor appliance

installer.

All fixed (non-mobile) appliances must be fitted with an accessible upstream gas shutoff valve as

a means of isolating the appliance for emergency shut off and for servicing.

Make certain new piping and connections have been made in a clean manner and have been

purged so that piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog regulators, valves, orifices, or burners.

Use pipe joint compound / thread sealant approved for natural and LP gases.

NEVER CONNECT THE POWER BURNER TO AN UNREGULATED GAS SUPPLY. Before

proceeding, ensure the appliance is fitted for Natural or Liquid Propane gas. Connecting to an

improper gas type will result in poor performance and increased risk of damage or injury. Gas

type and gas consumption (BTU per hour) for each burner type is shown on the rating label

affixed to the underside of the drip tray.

Installation of this cooking appliance must be made in accordance with local codes. In the

absence of local codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas

before using your appliance.

NOTE: To ensure proper heating performance of this appliance, verify that the supply pressure is

adequate to maintain 10.0” WC (2.49 kPa) outlet (manifold) pressure.

LEAK TESTING

GENERAL

Although all gas connections on your Hestan Power Burner are leak tested at the factory prior

to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to

possible movement in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to parts of the

unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is

detected.

BEFORE TESTING

• Do not smoke while leak testing.

• Never leak test with an open flame.

• Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing

purposes.

• Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle or a brush.

• For LP units, always check with a full LP cylinder.

To Test

• Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.

• Apply the soap solution described above to all fittings.

• Turn the gas supply on.

• Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold

pipe assembly and all connections to each burner.

• Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas

supply, tighten any leaking fittings, turn the gas supply back on, and recheck.

• If you cannot stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call the dealer where you purchased

your Power Burner.

• Do not use the Power Burner until all connections have been checked and do not leak.

IMPORTANT NOTE - ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP CYLINDER CHANGE.

If a leak is present, or if there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must

be replaced before using the Power Burner. The hose and LP regulator are supplied as a complete

assembly and must be replaced together. Do not attempt to repair or replace the hose itself.

Contact your Hestan dealer for genuine replacement P/N 014309.

Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy

water near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

Important: This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the

absence of local codes with the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA 70-1990

.

Appliances equipped with a flexible electrical supply cord are provided with a three-prong

grounding plug. It is imperative that this plug be connected to a properly grounded three-prong

receptacle. If the receptacle is not the proper grounding type, contact an electrician. Do not

remove the grounding prong from this plug.

The Power Burner is designed for 120 volt AC power and must be plugged into a Ground Fault

Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit. Do not connect the Power Burner to the electrical

supply until after gas connections have been made and leak checks have been performed.

KEEP ANY ELECTRICAL CORD AND FUEL SUPPLY HOSE AWAY FROM ANY HEATED

SURFACES.

1. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord or plugs in water or other liquid.

2. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on

or taking off parts.

3. Do not operate any outdoor cooking gas appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the

appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer for

repair.

4. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.

5. Do not use an outdoor cooking gas appliance for purposes other than intended.

6. Use only a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit with this outdoor cooking

gas appliance.

7. Never remove the grounding prong or use with a 2-prong ground adapter.

8. Use only extension cords with a 3-prong grounding plug, rated for the power of the

equipment, and approved for outdoor use with a W-A marking.

BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

The center burner of the Hestan Power Burner is similar to many residential gas cooktops. They

do not have any adjustments, except for the correct orifices, and adjustment of the low setting on

the valve. The octagonal burner also has no adjustment, except the correct orifice and adjustment

of the air-shutter.

BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENT

Each Power Burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment. The proper orifice

for the gas type, and the air-fuel adjustment was made at this time. However, variations in the

local gas supply, the elevation where you live, converting from one gas type to another, and other

factors might make it necessary to adjust the burner flames.

The flames of the burners should be visually checked and compared with the figures on the next

page. Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips (LP units will have some yellow

tipping). There should be no excessive noise or flame lifting. If any of these conditions exist,

remove the burner cap and check if dirt, debris, spider webs, etc., are blocking the center venturi

hole, or the individual burner ports. The occasional orange flame that quickly goes away is usually

a small amount of dust or water condensation which is burning off - this is normal.

The octagonal burner should also be periodically checked for blocked ports, debris, spider webs,

etc. Cleaning instructions are described in the CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE section.

VALVE ADJUSTMENTS

The valves on your Hestan Power Burner are preset at the factory for optimum performance.

However, the valve for the center burner also features a low (simmer) adjustment if altitude, low-

heat performance, converting from one gas to another, or other factors indicate an adjustment is

needed.

GAS AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

(continued)

NEVER ADJUST THE BURNER SO LOW

THAT IT MAY GO OUT DURING USE. DO

NOT OPERATE THE POWER BURNER

WITH THE LOW HEAT SCREW REMOVED.

GAS CAN ESCAPE AND CAUSE A

POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS CONDITION.

ADJUSTMENT STEPS FOR CENTER BURNER VALVE:

1. Remove the drip tray, control knobs, and control panel from the unit.

2. Follow lighting instructions by setting the control knob on “HI” and allow the burner to

preheat for 10 minutes.

3. Turn the control knob to “LOW” and wait for the burner temperature to drop and stabilize,

about 10 minutes. Attempting adjustment at any setting other than LOW can create a

dangerous condition.

4. Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver into the small screw to the left of the valve stem to

begin the adjustment (see Fig. 2). The screw only has 2-3 complete revolutions of adjustment.

After this, the screw may continue to turn, but is actually coming out of the valve and could

result in a gas leak. DO NOT turn more than 3 revolutions!

5. Turn counter-clockwise very slowly to INCREASE the low flame. The flame will take a few

seconds to respond to the adjustments you are making.

6. Adjust the flame so the burner is still fully lit on all ports, without fluttering or going out.

Turn off the burner and re-light. Check the new low setting once again to assure proper

adjustment is reached. Reattach the control panel, drip tray, and control knobs.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

Hestan Power Burners feature a spark-ignition system with flame-sensing technology which will

relight the flame should it go out.

The Power Burner can also be manually lit should that become necessary.

LIGHTING POWER BURNERS

1. Read Use & Care Manual before lighting. Remove cover during lighting.

2. Stand as far away as possible when lighting.

3. Push and turn selected knob to “HIGH” position. Igniter will spark until flame is established.

4. Once lit, turn knob to desired flame setting. If spark does not occur, check electrical supply.

5. If burner does not light in 5 seconds, turn knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before re-lighting.

6. If burner fails to light, see USE & CARE MANUAL for match lighting instructions.

Note: The flame-sensing technology of the spark igniter will repeatedly spark (clicking sound)

until a flame is established. The igniter for the center burner is built in to the base of the burner

itself and is well protected (see Fig. 3). If you experience nuisance sparking during normal

operation of the burner, see the TROUBLESHOOTING section of this manual.

The igniter for the outer burner is exposed and subject to contamination such as in the event of

a boil-over while cooking. To ensure proper ignition, be careful to maintain the correct distance

between burner and the igniter. The igniter must be approximately 1/8” (3mm) away from the

nearest flame ports on the left side of the burner (see Fig. 4) so that a flame is constantly touching

the center electrode of the igniter. If the igniter body is disturbed or the burner itself is out of

position, nuisance sparking may occur.

MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

If a burner will not light after several attempts, it can be lit with a match. When attempting to

light a burner with a match, be sure you selected the correct control knob for that burner. Keep

your face away as far as possible, and pass the lit match through the openings of the cooking

grates and position near the burner ports. Push and turn the control knob to “HIGH” until the

burner lights. Repeat this procedure for each burner if necessary. If the burner does not light in 5

seconds, turn the control knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before trying again. If the burner will

not light after several attempts, see the TROUBLESHOOTING section of this manual.
