Installation Notes

The XXL grill head alone weighs 282 lbs per Primo, so plan on several people to unload it, and never lift it by the hinge or bands. Primo grills are for outdoor use only, on a level surface with clearance for ventilation and away from overhanging branches or other flammable objects; lock the casters before cooking. In New York City, the NYC Fire Code restricts charcoal and other open-flame grills on balconies, terraces and rooftops, so confirm your building and FDNY rules before ordering. Talk to our outdoor kitchen team about placement and accessories.
