INTRODUCTION
U.S. Range manufactures the “Regal” Char-Broiler (RBA) in
widths from two to six feet, to be used either as freestanding
counter units or built into either a “Cuisine” or “Performer”
range. All broilers are shipped completely assembled, with
the double drip pans and pressure regulator packed on
top of the broiler. A piece of 2x4 lumber is strapped to the
radiants to prevent vibration damage. All units are inspected
at the factory before shipping.
Uncrating
After uncrating, immediately check the equipment for visible
signs of shipping damage.
If such damage has occurred, do not refuse shipment, but
contact the shipper and le the appropriate freight claims.
INSTALLATION
Rating Plate
The rating plate is attached to the right side of the appliance.
When corresponding with the factory or your local
authorized factory service center regarding service problems
or replacement parts, be sure to refer to the particular unit
by the correct model number (including the prex and sux
letters and numbers) and the warranty serial number. The
rating plate axed to the unit contains this information.
Other information on this plate is the BTU/hr input to the
burners, outlet gas pressure in inches WC, and whether
oriced for natural or propane gas.
WARNING All U.S. Range char-broilers must be connected
only to the type of gas identied on the rating plate!
Clearances
The appliance area must be kept free and clear of all
combustibles. This unit is design-certied for the following
installations:
1. For installation in non-combustible locations only.
2. For use only with four-inch high adjustable legs.
3. Zero clearance is required from non-combustible
construction at sides and rear.
Adequate clearances must be maintained at all times in front
and at the sides of the appliance for servicing and proper
operation.
Positioning and Setup
Place a carpenter’s spirit level left-to-right on the front
landing ledge and across the back trim, and also front-toback on the right and left end trims. Level to the high corner
with the screw adjustment built into the foot of each leg.
Air Supply and Ventilation
The area around the appliance must be kept clear to avoid
any obstruction to the ow of combustion and ventilation
air, as well as, for ease of maintenance, service and proper
appliance operation. Keep proper clearances for adequate air
supply.
Means must be provided for any commercial, heavy-duty
cooking appliance to exhaust combustion waste products
to the outside of the building. This is doubly important
for open-grate broilers, since the design promotes grease
dripping through the grate onto the hot radiants, sending
smoke back up through the product as avor enhancement.
“Regal” series char-broilers must be installed under a
vent hood. Filters and drip troughs should be part of any
industrial hood, but consult local codes before construction
and installation.
Air movement should be checked during installation. Strong
exhaust fans in the hood or in the overall air conditioning
system can produce a slight vacuum in the room and/or
cause air drafts. These can interfere with pilot or burner
performance and can be hard to diagnose. If pilot or burner
outage problems persist, make-up air openings or baes
may have to be provided in the room. If pilot/burner outage
problems persist make-up air openings or baes may have
to be provided in the room.

INSTALLATION Continued
Standards
Installation must be planned in accordance with all
applicable state and local codes, taking into account the
following standards (or latest edition):
Grease Extractor ANSI/NFPA 96-1992
Power Ventilators ANSI/NFPA 96-1987
Filter Unit ANSI/NFPA 96-1987
Smoke Detectors ANSI/NFPA 728-1986. CAN/ULC 85531986
Fire Extinguisher (C02) ANSI/NFPA 12-1989
This section is not intended to be complete and other
nationally recognized standards may be appropriate.
Gas Supply
1. Installation of the equipment should be made by a
licensed plumber.
2. A gas shut-o valve must be installed in the gas supply
line ahead or the appliance for safety and for ease of
future service.
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shuto
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45
kPa)
Manual Shut-O Valve
This installer-supplied valve must be installed in the gas
service line ahead of the appliance and regulator in the gas
stream and in a position where it can be reached quickly in
the event of an emergency.
Pressure Regulator
All commercial cooking equipment must have a pressure
regulator on the incoming service line for safe and ecient
operation. The pressure regulator installed must be listed by
a nationally recognized agency. Line service pressure may
uctuate with local demand.
All “Regal” char-broilers must be installed with the included
gas pressure regulator.
Regulators are adjusted at the factory for 5” WC (natural gas)
or 10” WC (LP gas) depending on the customer’s ordering
instructions.
3. A gas pressure regulator must be installed at the
appliance prior to connecting the equipment to the gas
line. Failure to install a regulator will void the equipment
warranty.
NOTE: The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or
greater than the inlet line of the appliance. U.S. Range “Regal”
char-broilers use a 3/4” NPT inlet. Sealant on all pipe joints
must be resistive to LP gas.
To convert to propane or natural gas, contact a certied
service agency.
Statutory Regulations
Safe and satisfactory operation of your equipment depends,
to a great extent, on its proper installation. Installation must
conform to local codes or, in the absence of local codes with
the National Fuel code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code,
CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable, including:
1. The appliance and its individual shuto 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 psi (3.45 kPa).
Prior to connecting the regulator, check the incoming line
pressure, as these regulators can withstand a maximum
pressure of 1/2 psi (14” WC). If the Line pressure is beyond
this limit, a step-down regulator will be required. Doublecheck the arrow forged onto the bottom of the regulator
body which shows gas ow directions; it should point
downstream to the appliance. The red air-vent cap is part of
the regulator and should not be removed unless local codes
require external venting.
Regulators can be adjusted in the eld, but it is
recommended that they not be tampered with unless that
part is known to be out of adjustment or serious pressure
uctuations are found to exist and can be solved no other
way. Any adjustments to regulators must be made by
qualied service personnel with proper test equipment.
If a vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator is
used, it should be installed to the outdoors in accordance
with local codes or code ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation
code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or The Propane Installation code,
CAN/CGA-B149.2.
INSTALLATION Continued
WARNING Failure to install a pressure regulator will void
the equipment warranty!
Rigid Connections
Double-check any installer-supplied intake pipes visually
and clear any dirt particles, threading chips, or other foreign
matter before installing in a service line. Those particles will
clog orices when gas pressure is applied.
WARNING All connections must be sealed with a joint
compound suitable for LP gas, and all connections must be
tested with a soapy solution before lighting any pilots!
Flexible Couplings & Connectors.
If the unit is to be installed with exible couplings and/or
quick disconnect ttings, the installer must use an AGA
design-certied commercial exible connector or at least
3/4” NPT (with suitable strain relief’s) in compliance with
the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances,
ANSI Z21.69 /CSA 6.16, and a quick-disconnect device that
complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices
for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41 / CSA 6.9. Domestic
connectors are not suitable!
Manual Pilot Valve
All burners are equipped with constant-burning pilots.
These should be manually lighted immediately after the
gas is turned on and the system is checked for leaks. Pilots
can be reached with a long match or taper down from the
top if the grates and radiants have not yet been installed, or
through the observation/adjustment openings in the valve
cover between the burner valve knobs. These openings also
contain the pilot valves, which are screwdriver adjustable.
Testing and Adjustments
Check all gas connections for leaks using a soapy solution
before lighting any pilots. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME
TO CHECK FOR LEAKS! Putting open ame beside a new
connection is not only dangerous, but will often miss small
leaks that a soapy solution would nd.
All U.S. Range appliances are adjusted and tested before
leaving the factory, eectively matching them to sea
level conditions. Adjustments and calibrations to assure
proper operation may be necessary on installation to meet
local conditions, low gas pressure, dierences in altitude;
variations in gas characteristics, to correct possible problems
caused by rough handling or vibration during shipment, and
are to be performed only by qualied service personnel.
These adjustments are the responsibility of the customer,
installer and/or dealer and are not covered by the U.S. Range
warranty.
