CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products which are on the list of substances known by the State of California to
cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the Owners Manual, ensuring you provide proper
ventilation when cooking with gas.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The gas pressure regulator provided with the equipment must be installed when the appliance is connected to the gas supply.
The area around the appliance must be kept free and clear of combustibles such as solvents, cleaning liquids, brooms, rags, etc.
Proper clearances must be provided at the front of the appliances for servicing and proper operation.
Provisions shall be incorporated in the design of the kitchen, to ensure an adequate supply of fresh air and adequate clearance for
air openings into the combustion chamber, for proper combustion and ventilation. For proper operation of the appliance, do not
obstruct the ow of combustion and ventilation air.
The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1 - 1988
(or latest addenda).
The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system in excess of 1/2 PSI.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSI.
The gas supply line must be at least 3/4" NPT.

INSTALLATION - GAS STANDARDS AND CODES
IMPORTANT - The installation of this appliance must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149-1, or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149-2
as applicable, including:
1. The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressure in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system.
GAS CONNECTION - The gas inlet line size of this appliance is 3/4" NPT. For proper operation, the gas supply service line
must be the same size or greater than the inlet line size of the appliance. The gas line size must not be reduced at any point along
the supply line.
MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE - A gas pressure regulator and a contractor-supplied shut-off valve must be plumbed in the gas
service line ahead of the appliance – in a physical location where it can be reached quickly in the event of an emergency.

When installing the pressure regulator - remember it can only handle 1/2 PSI. In
every LPG installation, you have high source pressures, ranging from 20 PSI to 100
WARNING
PSI. If the high pressure gas line from the LPG tank is directly connected to the unit
without the proper step-down regulator, it will rupture the diaphragm in the valve,
rendering it useless.
Visually double check any installer-supplied intake pipes and/or blow them out using compressed air to clear any dirt or debris,
threading chips, or other foreign matter – before installing a service line. Those particles will clog gas orices when gas pressure is
applied. Compounds used on threaded joints of this appliance piping must be resistant to the action of NG and LP gas and provide
a gas tight seal to prevent leaks.
The gas pressure regulator must be installed in the gas line – failure to install a pressure regulator will void the equipment
warranty. The regulators supplied with ranges have 3/4" NPT connections; the regulator is adjusted at the factory for
5" W.C. (water column) manifold gas pressure (natural gas) or 10" W.C. manifold gas pressure for propane gas operation.
F
Before connecting the regulator, check the incoming line pressure – as these regulators can only withstand a maximum inlet pressure
of 14" W.C. (1/2 PSI); exceeding this pressure will damage them. If the gas supply line pressure is greater than this amount, a step-
down regulator will be required. A gas ow direction arrow is cast into the body of the regulator to minimize installation error – it
should point downstream to the appliance. The blue air vent cap on the top of the regulator is part of the regulator and should not
be removed.
Any adjustment to the regulator must be made only by qualied and licensed service
personnel with the proper calibrated test equipment. Gas connections should be performed
by a qualied licensed contractor.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS!
Use soap and water solution.
GAS LEAKS - CHECK OPERATION
1. Turn pilot valves to OFF position by turning adjustment screws clockwise.
2. Turn ON the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas supply line.
3. Check for gas leaks at the exible coupling or gas connector tting using a solution of one part soap and three par ts water.
4. Sparingly spray or brush the soapy solution at the gas ttings; active bubbling indicates location of gas leak.
If a gas leak is detected turn off the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas line.
Call your certied and licensed ser vice technician.
5. Turn pilot adjustment screw counter-clockwise, then light standing pilot and
PILOT ADJUSTMENT SCREW
adjust ame 1/4" high.
6. Turn ON gas valve/thermostat to light main burners.
7. For complete shut down, shut off gas valves and turn pilot adjustment screw
clockwise to shut off gas to the pilots.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Your American Range Commercial Equipment has been designed and manufactured for years of reliable service. Keeping the unit
clean periodically will be appreciated by your customers, help extend the life of the product and make maintenace easier. The
following are a few tips gathered over the years from eld experience. We begin with the DO NOTS:
For ARRB, AERB, ADJ, AHS
1. DO NOT place any char-rock, charcoal, or woodchips inside the unit.
2. DO NOT use any acidic/abrasive cleaners. Such cleaners are corrosive to the equipment and will void warranty.
For ARKB
DO NOT cover more than 1/2 of the cooking surface if using top grates with your kebob broiler. This will cause
malfunctions, cause knobs to get hot, and cause performance issues.
For AECB
DO NOT stack char-rock. Use one loose layer, leaving 1/2 of the wafe grates visible. The char-rock reduces are-ups, helps
distribute heat uniformly and provides a seared avor to your food. Stacking rocks will prohibit heat from reaching your product,
will cause metal parts to deteriorate, and will cause performance issues. Do not under any circumstances use solid fuel such as
charcoal or mequite wood.
Daily:
1. Clean top grates with warm, soapy water and wire brush.
2. Remove top grates and brush off debris from and around the burner area.
3. Empty grease cans and grease troughs, clean with warm soapy water.
Periodic:
