supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa).

Part # 1382684 (01/08)Page 6

INSTALLATION continued

Gas Supply

Before assembly and connection check the gas supply.

1. The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped
on the data plate located behind the drip tray. Connect
a unit stamped “NAT” only to natural gas; connect those
stamped “PRO” only to propane gas.

2. If it is a new installation have the gas authorities check
the meter size and piping to assure that the unit is
supplied with sucient amount of gas pressure required
to operate the unit.

3. If it is an additional or replacement equipment have the
gas authorities check the pressure to make certain that
the existing meter and piping will supply fuel to the unit
with not more than 1/2” water column pressure drop.

WARNING: Check gas connections for leaks. Use a soap
solution or similar means. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.

NOTE: This appliance is not recommended for residential
installation.

Ventilation and Air Supply

Proper ventilation is highly important for good operation.
The ideal method of ventilation for a Salamander broiler is
the use of a properly designed canopy hood, which should
extend six (6”, 152 mm) beyond all sides of the appliance and
six (6) feet six (6) inches (1981 mm) from the oor.

A strong exhaust fan will create a vacuum in the room. For an
exhaust system to work properly, replacement air must enter
the room in which the vent is located. The amount of air that
is exhausted must equal the amount entering, (make-up air).

All gas burners and pilots need sucient air to operate and
large objects should not be placed in front or on the top of
the broiler, which would obstruct the airow though, the
front of the broiler.

For your safety NEVER place any type of object on top of
the salamander broiler or cheese meters. The top of the
broiler will exceed 1000°F. It could cause severe burns or
re and obstruct ventilation.

Testing And Adjustments

All ttings and pipe connections must be tested for leaks.
Use approved gas leak detectors, soap solution or equivalent,
checking over and around the ttings and pipe connections.
DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to all gas lines and
ttings require that valve panel(s), lower front panel(s) be
removed. It may be necessary to remove or at least raise and
secure top grates. All parts removed (including fasteners)
should be stored safely for re-use.

Testing

1. Be sure all valves are in the “OFF” position

2. Turn on the main gas supply valve. Light all top section
pilots.

3. Leak test all valves and ttings as described in the
procedure above. Correct any leaks as required and
recheck.

4. Shut o all gas valves.

All units are tested and adjusted at the factory. However,
burners and pilots should be checked at installation and
adjusted if necessary.

OPERATION

OFF

IGNITION

MAX

MIN

NOTE: Ensure the gas supply to the appliance is turned “ON”.
During the initial ignition cycle, air must be purged from the
gas line and thus it may take one to two minutes for the pilot
burner to ignite.

M,MS Models

Pilot Lighting Instructions

1. The in-line service shut-o valve should be in the “ON”
position.

2. With a lighted taper light the pilots which are located at
the rear of the main burner.

3. The pilot ame should be approximately 7/8”
(22 mm) long for proper ignition of the burners. The
pilot adjustment valve is located by sliding the drip
tray forward. The adjustment valves are located on the
manifold pipe, which runs horizontally across the back of
the unit, behind the drip tray, one is at the left rear and
the other is at the right rear.

4. To adjust the pilot light, turn the brass screw counter­clockwise to increase the pilot ame, and clockwise to
decrease the ame.

MST Models

Operating Controls

NOTE: No more than 7/8” (22 mm) pilot ame length should
be required. Too high a setting will cause the ame to lift o
or will create excessive carboning. Do not adjust the pilot
ame lower than 7/8” (22mm) long because this can cause
delayed ignition at the burner. The delayed ignition could
cause the burner tiles to crack, in that case the burner would
have to be replaced.

Main Burner Operation

1. Turn the main burner to the “MAX” position.

2. Immediately check ignition of the burner.

CAUTION: Should ignition fail after ve (5) seconds, turn the
valve o and wait ve (5) minutes before trying again. The
pilot gas is not interrupted automatically, it is the responsibility
of the operator to check the ignition of the burners
immediately after the burner valve has been turned on.

Shut Down

1. Turn all valves to the “OFF” position by rotating the knob
clockwise 1/4 turn.

2. If the unit is to be shut down for an extended period of
time close the inline gas valve.

Lighting Instructions

1. Push in the tap and turn it counter-clockwise to the
Ignition Position “ ”

2. Holding the tap fully in, light the pilot with a match or
taper.

Part # 1382684 (01/08)Page 8

OPERATION continued

3. When the pilot is lit, continue to hold the tap fully in for
20 seconds, then release it. IF the pilot goes out, wait for
ve (5) minutes, and then repeat from step 1.

4. When the pilot is established, push the tap in again and
turn it counter-clockwise to the full ame position “ ”
thus lighting the main burner.

5. For low ame or simmer, push the tap in and turn it
counter-clockwise to the low ame “ ” position.

6. To shut the burner o, turn the dial to the “ ” symbol and
the safety device will disengage within 60 seconds.

Shut Down

1. Turn all valves to the “OFF” position by rotating the knob
clockwise 1/4 turn.

2. If the unit is to be shut down for an extended period of
time, close the inline gas valve.

All Models

Burner Ignition

When ignition has been accomplished, a blue ame will
cover the surface of the ceramics for 10-15 seconds. This haze
will disappear and the burner rod will glow red. After the
burners have operated for several minutes turn the valve to
“MIN”. The burner rods will no longer glow red and the ame
travels back and forth on the face of the burner ceramics.

Main burner Adjustments

This adjustment has been factory pre-set however, with
changing pressures this adjustment and pilot adjustment
may need re-done after installation. This is not considered a
manufacturing defect and is not warrantable.

Burn o Period

Many parts used in the manufacturing of commercial
equipment have a thin protective coating of machine oil. This
oil should be burned o before the equipment is used for
food preparation.

After all start-up and safety checks have been completed,
turn the burner valve to the “MAX” position. A Smoke (a
bluish haze) will be produced. This process can take several
hours and can be completed over a few days.

Operating Suggestions

1. Clean the racks as soon as possible after cooking with
tomato or vinegar based products that have a high acid
content. These foods can cause pitting of the rack surface.

2. Allow the salamander to preheat before adding product.

3. Drain and clean the drip tray frequently. Excessive oil
drain o in the pan can cause spillover.

Energy Conservation

Do not waste energy by leaving controls at high temperature
settings during idle periods. Lower setting will keep broiler
warm and ready got the next use period. Reset burner valve
knob as required for heavy load periods.

All Salamander are provided with a xed burner orice to
provide 20,000 BTU/Hr at the “MAX” setting on natural gas
supplied at 6.0” W/C pressure and 20,000 BTU/Hr at the “MAX”
setting on propane gas supplied at 10.0” W/C.

The “MIN” setting is adjustable and should be set as follows:

1. Set the burner valve knob to “MIN”.

2. Insert a thin bladed screwdriver into the valve stem
to engage the slot inside the stem. Turn Clockwise to
decrease the rate and counter clock-wise to increase.

Proper adjustment is attained at the point where the burner
rods no longer glow and the ame travels back and forth on
the face of the ceramics.

Safety Precautions

It is the responsibility of the supervisor or equivalent
person to ensure that users of this equipment wear suitable
protective clothing and to draw attention to the fact that
some parts will by necessity become very hot and will cause
burns if touched accidentally.

For your safety never place any type of object on top of the
salamander broiler. The top of the broiler will exceed 1000°F.
It could cause severe burns and/or le and also obstruct
ventilation.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

A program of proper cleaning techniques will aid in
continued trouble free operation of this or any quality
equipment.

Daily

1. Remove and clean grid rack. Grid racks should be wiped
clean while still warm, using a heavy cloth or other grease
absorbing material to remove grease and burnt food
before they burn into the grid. Remove burnt materials,
such as carbonized grease or food, with a sti wire brush.
DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF STEEL WOOL. Small particles
of steel may be left on the grid surface and get into food
products. Grid racks should be washed thoroughly using
a wire brush and a hot, mild detergent or soap solution.
Rinse with clear, warm water.

2. With the rack removed clean the interior of the unit with
a damp cloth.

3. Clean out the grease container.

Monthly

Lubricate valves and bearings as required. Due to the usual
location of the broiler which is mounted above a range
with open tops, the heat from the open top will cause the
lubrication grease inside the valves to dry out. When you
notice that the valves are becoming harder to turn, it is
then time to have them greased. We suggest an authorized
service agent who is familiar with the appliance and working
with natural and propane gas, perform this type of work.

Exterior Cleaning

Establish a regular schedule. Any spills should be wiped o
immediately.

Wipe exposed, cleanable surface when cool with a mild
detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots may be
removed with a lightweight non-metallic scouring pad. Dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth.

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel should be cleaned using a mild detergent,
a soft cloth and hot water. If it is necessary to use a non­metallic scouring pad, always rub in the direction of the
grain in the metal to prevent scratching. Use a water based
stainless steel cleaner (such as Drackett Twinkle), if you
want a high shine. Wash a small area at a time and rinse the
washed area with a clean sponge dipped into a disinfectant
and wipe dry with a soft cloth before it can dry.

Use only stainless steel, wood or plastic tools to scrape
o heavy deposits of grease or oil. Do not use ordinary
steel scrapers or knives, as particles of iron may become
embedded and rust. NEVER USE STEEL WOOL.
