Abstract
A hood mounting device including at least one cam having a first surface and an aperture located on the bottom casting. At least one second surface is located on the grill hood and is configured such that the first and said second surfaces contact each other when the hood is placed in the closed position on the lower casting. The hood mounting device is configured such that a corresponding aperture formed in the hood is axially aligned with the aperture in the lower casting when the hood is in the closed position. Longitudinal securing means are passed through the axially aligned aperture and corresponding aperture, thereby rotatably securing the hood to the bottom casting.
