UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the tilting braising pan is
found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of
delivery.
Before installing, verify that the electrical service agrees with the specifications on the rating
plate located on the left side panel as you face the front of the braising pan. If the supply and
equipment requirements do not agree, contact your dealer or Crown Food Service Equipment
Ltd.
LOCATION
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation.
An exhaust system and ventilation hood should be located directly above the appliance to
exhaust combustion gases generated by the unit.
Appliance is intended for use on noncombustible floors. Minimum clearance from combustible
and noncombustible floor construction, 3" (76 mm) on sides and 6" (152 mm) from back.
INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS
Installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1, as applicable.
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 pressures in excess
of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
2. 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Electrical grounding must be provided in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA

braising pan side-to-side and front-to-back.
3. Mark hole locations on the floor through the anchoring holes provided in the rear flanged
adjustable feet.
4. Remove tilting braising pan from installation position and drill holes in locations marked on
the floor. (See installation diagram on page 4.) Insert proper anchoring devices (not
supplied).
5. Place tilting braising pan back in the installation position.
6. Place carpenter’s level on top of braising pan and re-level side-to-side and front to back.
7. Bolt and anchor tilting braising pan securely to the floor.

GAS CONNECTIONS
All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of
propane gases.
Connect gas supply to the appliance. The gas supply line must be at least equivalent of 3/4"
iron pipe with an incoming pressure of 7" - 14" W.C. (Water Column) for natural gas or 11" - 14"
W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions,
dirt and piping compound.
Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the tilting braising
pan.
Natural gas and propane gas skillets are equipped with fixed orifices and no adjustment is
necessary. Gas burner manifold is set at 3.5" W.C. (Water Column) for natural gas, and 10"
W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas.

all connections for leaks using soapy water before use.
NOTICE: If this equipment is being installed at over 2,000 feet altitude and was
not so specified on order, contact service department. Failure to install with
proper orifice sizing may void the warranty.
CAUTION: The pipe thread compound used when installing pipes
must be a type that is resistant to the action of liquified petroleum or
propane gases.
