Section 1 To the Installer

This machine is designed for indoor use only.

DO NOT install the machine in an area where

a water jet could be used to clean or rinse the machine.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
electrical shock.

Air Clearance

Clearances from the grill to other surfaces are required
for proper air circulation:

The required minimum clearances from the grill to
combustible construction is: 4” (102 mm) bottom, 3”
(76 mm) rear, and 3” (76 mm) sides.

Bottom: 4 inches (102 mm) minimum

Rear: 3 inches (76 mm) minimum

Sides: 3 inches (76 mm) to combustible

surfaces

0 inches (0 mm) to non-combustible
surfaces;

0 inches (0 mm) between grills in multiple
installations.

Failure to comply with these minimum clearance
requirements will affect grill performance, and
may cause component damage and overheating
of combustible surfaces.

proper maintenance will result in an installation
essentially free from hazard!

In all other areas of the world, equipment should be
installed in accordance with the existing local codes.
Please contact your local authorities.

Stationary appliances which are not equipped with a
power cord and a plug or other device to disconnect
the appliance from the power source must have an
all--pole disconnecting device with a contact gap of at
least 3 mm installed in the external installation.

This equipment is provided with a grounding lug
that is to be properly attached to the rear of the frame
by the authorized installer. The installation location is
marked by the equipotential bonding symbol (5021 of
IEC 60417--1) on the removable panel and the frame.

The proper wire size and fused circuit should be
selected according to grill data label information.
Incoming power must be connected to the terminals
with black characters on a white background, as
shown:

Electrical Connections

The QS Series grills have one electrical connection.
Check the data plate on the grill for voltage, cycle,
phase and electrical specifications. The power
connection is located behind the access line cover on
the front of the grill.

In the United States, this equipment is intended to be
installed in accordance with the National Electrical
Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70--1987. The purpose of
the NEC code is the practical safeguarding of persons
and property from hazards arising from the use of
electricity. This code contains provisions considered
necessary for safety. Compliance therewith and

THE GRILL DURING A POWER OUTAGE. Grills

require electrical power for operation. In the event of
a prolonged power outage, place the unit in the “OFF”
position.

CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE

Ventilation and Clearance

To ensure proper operation of this appliance it must be
installed so that the products of combustion are
efficiently removed. Do not store anything on top of the
grill.

Most service can be performed from the front of the
grill. When inspecting heating elements, the unit must
be disconnected and pulled out of the hood enclosure.
Allow four feet in front of the appliance for this purpose.

Leveling Procedures

Step 1

The leveling adjustment needs to be performed while
the grill is at operating temperature. Remove the cook
surface shroud and release sheet.

Step 2

To allow adjustment of the gap pins, loosen the two set
screws located on the side of the front and rear gap
slide.

To the Installer

Figure 3

Models QS12 & QS24

Step 3

Raise or lower both gap pins on the front gap slide until
they are flush with the top edge of the gap slide.
Repeat this step for the rear gap slide. Slide the gap
slide to the right.

Figure 4

Figure 6

Step 6

Wearing proper protection, carefully attempt to raise
the gap slide to evaluate which gap pin is in need of
adjustment.

Step 4

For each cook surface requiring adjustment, place 4
gap blocks on the cook surface, approximately 2”
(51 mm) in from each corner.

Figure 5

Step 5

Lower the cook surface assembly. Loosen and slowly
move the T-handle to the left until the gap pins in the
gap slides touch the cook surface, and tighten the
T-handle.

Figure 7

With the gap slide raised, slowly turn the gap pin
needing adjustment until it makes contact with the
cook surface. Repeat these steps for both gap

slides.

Figure 8

Step 7

Raise the upper cook surface and remove the four gap
blocks.

Models QS12 & QS24 To the Installer

Step 8

Lower the upper cook surface into the COOK position.

Figure 9

Step 10

If the unit rocks, split the adjustment for gap pins
across the uneven corners, as shown in Figure 1 1.

Figure 11

Step 11

After adjusting, verify the unit for stability.

Step 9

Wearing proper protection, attempt to rock the cook
surface assembly. Apply pressure on the locating pins
at opposite corners to each other as shown in Figure

10.

Figure 10

Step 12

If all adjustments on the cook surface are correct, and
no rocking occurs, tighten the two screws located on
the side of the front and rear gap slides to lock all
adjustments from moving.

It is highly recommended that the gap
slides and the gap slide retainers be
removed at least weekly for cleaning these
parts and the cook surface shroud behind
these parts.
These parts are easily removed by
removing the locating pins and holding
both parts, because they are not attached
together, and pulling them from the cook
surface.
Take the gap slides to the sink for
cleaning. (Be sure to re-install the gap
slides as they were removed, i.e., “F”
front.) See Weekly Cleaning Procedures
on page 28.
