Acceptable Clearances:

(A) USA and Canada. Due to intense heat generated

by radiation, in USA and Canada these broilers
should be installed in non-combustible locations
only, including the areas above the grate level.

Gas Connection:

The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed
at the gas inlet of each broiler unless required otherwise
by local codes. Each regulator is adjusted to yield a
manifold pressure of 3.5” water column (9 mbar) for
natural gas or 10” water column (25 m bar) for propane
gas. Units for propane gas are available for use in USA
and Canada only.

Recommended minimum gas supply lines are listed
below:

All XXE Models: 3/4” (19 mm )

When making gas pipe connections, pipe joint
compound resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum
gases should be used.

The broiler and its individual shutoff 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 psig (3.45 kpa).

The broiler 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 psig
(3.45 kpa).

Burners

Check to see that air mixer caps on the front of all
burners are adjusted and tightened, allowing half the
opening to show.

To install the burners:

(A) Place the front venturi end of the burner into the

valve assembly by fitting the center hole of the air
mixer cap over the brass orifice.

(B) Drop the two ends of the burners over the

burner support pins in the front and back of the
chamber.

Radiants

Mount the “A” shaped radiants over the burners with
each end mounted on special supports on the front and
rear of the chamber. A radiant should be mounted over
eachburner assembly.

A shut-off valve in a readily accessible location
must be mounted on the gas supply line before
the unit.

For units using propane gas supply In USA and Canada
lines less than 1/2” (12.7 mm) inside diameter should
not be used.

On the XXE series, the gas connection is located on the
right rear of the unit.

Be sure to cap whichever side is not connected.

Top Grates

Place a grate over each of the radiants. For normal
operation the pointed side of the grate is facing up. For
use with foods that require extra, support, the flat side
may be used.

On XXE models, grates can be placed on three levels;
two positions are built into the rear of the unit; the third
position requires a special adapter which is supplied with
the unit.

The adapter covers only half of the broiler. To cover the
entire unit, optional adapters can be ordered.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Lighting:

Each burner has a standing pilot burner which must be
lit before the burners can be lit. To light the pilot burners:

(A) Turn all broiler valves to off position

(B) Open main gas shut off valve ( provided by

customer).

(C) Press, turn counterclockwise and hold the burner

control knob to the pilot burner ignition position.

(D) Using a lit taper, light the pilot burner.

(E) Release the knob after 30 seconds. Pilot burner

should stay lit. If the pilot burner does not remain
lit, wait for 5 minutes and repeat steps C and D.
Hold the knob pressed longer before releasing.

(F) With a screwdriver adjust the pilot burner flame

to about 1/2” (12.7 mm). Turn the adjusting
screw clockwise to reduce or counterclockwise to
increase the pilot burner flame.

(G) Each burner may now be adjusted to the desired

flame size by turning the individual burner valve
knob.

(H) Turn the knob to the pilot burner ignition position

to shut down the main burner.

(I) Turn the knob to off position to shut down the

pilot burners.

Wait five minutes before attempting to relight the
pilot burners.

Grease Pan

A grease pan is provided below the burners to hold any
grease that drips down past the radiants while broiling.
An additional grease drawer is provided in the front right
corner of the grease pan to collect the grease from the
grease drain in the front which in turn drains into the
grease collector.

Water is usually added to the grease pan to reduce flare­up and flash back. The grease drip will extinguish as it
hits the water.

Griddle Plate (Optional)

Griddle plates should not cover more than 50% of the
BROILING area. Each Griddle Plate fits on top of two
grates. It is not necessary to remove the top grates and
radiants before installing the griddle plate.

Additional Installation Instructions

(A) Keep the area around the broiler free and clear of

combustible materials.

(B) The provision of an adequate air supply to your

broiler is essential. Provide for sufficient outside
air to enter the broiling area and assure that this
air flow is not obstructed.

(C) Air enters the burner area from the front of your

broiler. Assure that this area is kept open and
unobstructed.

(D) Servicing is accomplished through the front and

top of the broiler. Assure that this area is kept
unobstructed for proper servicing and operation.

Installation With Casters

(A) Install the casters with wheel brakes on the front

of the appliance.

(B) Installation should be made with a connector that

complies with the latest edition of the Standard
for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances (ANS/
Z21.69 in USA, CAN/CGA-6.16 in Canada)
and a quick disconnect device that complies
with the latest edition of the Standard for
Quick Disconnect Devices for use with gas fuel
(ANSIZ21.41 in USA, CAN1-6.9 in Canada).
Adequate means must be provided to limit the
movement of the appliance without depending on
the connector and any quick disconnect device
or its associated piping to limit the appliance
movement.

(C) The restraint should be attached to the center of

the back about 1/2” (12.7mm ) from the bottom.

(D) If disconnection of the restraint is necessary,

the restraint should be reconnected after the
appliance has been returned to its originally
installed position.
