INSTALLATION/OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

GAS CONNECTIONS

Installation Personnel: Check all connections and fittings on valves and tubing supplied as a part of this unit to
make sure they did not come loose during shipment. A manual gas valve should be provided upstream within 6
feet of the appliance for shutting the gas off during servicing. A ground joint union should be provided between
the house plumbing and the gas inlet to the appliance. A gas pressure regulator has been provided as a part of
this appliance. It is factory pre-set for natural gas and is field adjustable for liquid propane gas. All plumbing
should be clean and free of burrs and metal chips. All pipe connections should be made using a pipe joint
compound resistant to the action of LP gases. A drip TEE must be used to collect any moisture or dirt in the
gas. Upon completing the installation of this appliance, all the gas connections must be checked for gas leaks.
Use a solution of liquid dishwashing soap and water to check for leaks.

This installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA-54, National Gas and Propane Installation Code, and CSA-B149.1 as applicable.

The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa). The appliance must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing it’s 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).

Provisions for proper air supply must be taken into account when installing the unit. Care should be taken so as
not to obstruct the area in front, under or in rear of the unit. DO NOT PLACE BACK OF THE UNIT CLOSER THAN
6˝ (153mm) TO A WALL OR OTHER SURFACES. The appliance shall be located with respect to other equipment
so it will have adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation.

This unit is supplied with four (4) adjustable feet, which must be installed prior to operation. Four (4)
threaded openings are provided on bottom of the unit to accept the threaded portion of the feet. Screw in the
feet and tighten them securely. During operation, check the feet every sixty (60) days to assure that they are
tight. Failure to use the feet will void warranty and could cause unsafe conditions.

Note: Appliance must be installed under a ventilation hood.

INSTALLATION/OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

START UP

During initial operation, the broiler will smoke until unit preservation oils and impurities are burned off.

OPERATION

Turn valves on high to preheat unit before attempting to broil. Adjust valve to desired heat setting. You will
have to experiment with grate location and valve setting for your meat product needs. It is recommended that
the grates be put in a sloped position to start with. This will allow the grease to run down the grate into grease
tray reducing the chance of flare-ups. Water pans must be checked frequently and water added as required.
Hot water vapors rising from the water pans and through the combustion chamber reduce flare-ups.

CAUTION...CAUTION...CAUTION!

CHARBROILERS ARE HOT!! NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE LOCATION OR REMOVE GRATES
WHILE PRODUCTS ARE COOKING. FLARE-UPS CAN OCCUR UNEXPECTEDLY. TURN OFF
CHARBROILER AND ALLOW TO COOL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE OR REPOSITION
GRATES.

LAVA ROCKS (FOR LAVA ROCK SERIES CHARBROILERS ONLY)

Note: Maximum of 4 lbs. of lava rocks per burner.

GRATE LOCATION

Grate may be raised or lowered by adjusting location of grate hooks on back splash. Grate may be turned over
for different grid pattern. Use gloves or potholder to reposition grates.

BURNER ADJUSTMENT

Turn burner valve to high position. Decrease openings of air shutters to give soft blue flame having yellow tips,
and then slowly increase openings to a point when the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue flame is obtained.

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

Sections of broiler may be set at different temperatures. It is possible to have a high heat or searing section
while having a low heat finishing or holding section. For searing operation, set valves for section on or close to
high setting. For holding or finishing, set valves at lower setting. By experimenting with different settings, you
will determine which one will suit your specific needs.

INSTALLATION/OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WATER PAN

The water pan is located at the bottom of broiler. Some models may have two water pans. They are removable
by pulling out from front of unit. It is important that water be kept in pan during operation and added as
required. The water reduces flare-ups, reduces table or counter surface temperature, and catches grease.

CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS

Use soap and water solution to check for gas leaks. Check entire gas piping for leaks. Do not use matches, or
other sources of ignition to check for leaks.

AIR INTAKE

Air for combustion enters from the bottom of charbroiler. Do not store items under unit or obstruct this area.

REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

Contact the factory, a factory representative, or a local service company for repairs and maintenance.

CLEANING

Clean daily or more frequently if required. Remove grate section and wash in a sink. Brush out carbon
particles. Remove water pan and wash. Clean exterior of pan with detergent and use non-abrasive cleaner on
stubborn areas.
