HEAVY DUTY HOT PLATE OPERATION MANUAL

Gas Pressure

The appliance and it’s individual shutoff valve (to be
supplied by user) must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).
NOTE: Gas shutoff valve is supplied on CE models.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2
psi (3.45 kPa).

Congratulations on your purchase of Bakers Pride®
commercial cooking equipment. Bakers Pride takes

GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Ensure gas supply and gas type shown on unit data plate
match. (Data plate is located on the right side panel of

Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the National
Gas Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or the Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.2 as applicable and in
accordance with local codes.

four corners of the unit and tighten by hand. Level the
unit by turning the adjustment screw at the bottom
of each leg. Do not slide unit with legs mounted, lift if
necessary to move unit.

operation from this equipment. To ensure best results, it
is important that you read and follow the instructions in
this manual carefully.

The countertop hot plate, models BPHHP-212i, BPHHP­424i, BPHHP-636i, BPHHP-848i, BPHHPS- 212i,
BPHHPS-424i, BPHHPS-636i and BPHHPS-848i
provide countertop heating and cooking capabilities.
These units incorporate 2, 4, 6 or 8 burners for fast,
even cooking and heating. Refer to data plate for BTU/
hr Rate.

Unit must have adequate clearances for servicing.
(Sides = 0”, Rear = 0”, Floor = 4”)

Commercial cooking equipment must have a pressure
regulator on the incoming service line for safe and
efficient operation, since service pressures may
fluctuate on local demand. A pressure regulator is
packed inside every gas appliance.

Failure to install the pressure regulator will void the
appliance warranty.

Prior to connecting the regulator, check the incoming
line pressure, as these regulators can only withstand
a maximum pressure of 1/2’’ psi (14” WC). If the line
pressure is beyond this limit, a step down regulator will
be required.

WARNING

DO NOT use an open flame to check for leaks.
Check all gas piping for leaks with a soap and
water solution before operating unit.
