SAFETY
Always follow these safety precautions when operating the
Xpress Grill.
• THISGRILLMUST be operated by persons who have
been given adequate training.
• THISEQUIPMENTMUSTONLYBEOPERATEDUNDERAN
APPROVED HOOD SYSTEM.
• DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL UNLESS IT HAS
BEEN COMMISSIONED (START-UP) BY A FACTORY
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
• DONOT operate the grill without reading the operation
manual.
Part # JIBSM08 Rev.6 (08/04/09)Page 7
• DO NOT operate the Xpress grill unless it has been
properly installed and grounded.
• DONOT operate the Xpress grill unless all service and
access panels are in place and fastened properly.
The Garland Xpress Grill is a semi-automatic cooking
appliance. The upper platen is lowered automatically,
following the manual, two-handed initiation of the cooking
cycle, and the upper platen is raised automatically upon
completion of the cooking cycle.
SAFETY continued
When two sided cooking, the area between the upper platen
and the griddle plate should be regarded as a “danger zone.”
During two sided cooking the operator must not be within
this danger zone. When used as a at grill, then this area is no
longer a danger zone, the platens do not move.
For whatever reason, be it cleaning, maintenance, or normal
operation, any exposed person must use extreme caution if
within this danger zone.
In two side cooking the upper platen remains in the lowered
position by nature of its own weight. It is not locked down. It
can be raised by lifting up on the handle on the front of the
platen, which pivots the platen about it rear mounting point.
The Xpress Grill may during its operation emit airborne noise
equivalent to a continuous A weighted sound pressure level
of 73dB(A).
The Xpress grill must only be used for single and two sided
cooking of foodstus in a Jack in the Box store and must not
be used for any other purpose.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury:
• DONOT attempt to repair or replace any part of the
Xpress Grill unless all main power supplies to the grill
have been disconnected.
• USEEXTREMECAUTION in setting up, operating and
cleaning the Xpress Grill to avoid coming in contact
with hot grill surfaces or hot grease. Suitable protective
clothing should be worn to prevent the risk of burns.
• DONOT clean this appliance with a water jet.
• DONOT apply ICE or COLD WATER to a HOT grill surface.
• NOTE all warning labels and markings axed to the grill,
since they call attention to further dangers and necessary
precautions.
HAZARD COMMUNICATION STANDARD, (HCS) - The
procedures in this manual include the use of chemical
products. These chemical products will be printed in bold
face, followed by the abbreviation (HCS) in the text portion
of the procedure. See the Hazard Communication Standard,
(HCS) manual for the appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheet(s), (MSDS).
WARNING: After turning the master power switch to the
START position, the grill will go through initialization. If
the upper platens are in the lowered position they will
return to their raised upper position. This movement takes
approximately 8 seconds.
MAINTENANCE - the platen support arms carriage block
bearing bushings, the platen adjuster nuts, the platen
support (shoulder) bolt and the cam follower should be
checked annually for wear. Should there be any noticeable
play in the bearing bushings and any visible wear on the
platen adjuster nuts, platen support bolts or cam follower,
then they must be replaced.
MAINTENANCE - the audible alarm that sounds on
platen lowering, platen raising and 5 seconds before the
completion of the cooking cycle is to advise the operator
that the platen is about to move. The function of this device
may be tested by pushing the left hand CANCEL button. If
no sound is heard, ensure that the alarm volume is not set to
low in SYSTEM SETUP. If there is still no sound then a service
engineer should be called out to rectify the fault.
SERVICE AND CLEANING - The grill is secured in the grill bay
by the installer using two anchors that lock onto the front
casters. If the grill is to be moved out of the bay for cleaning
or service, remove the anchor from each caster by turning
the knob counterclockwise to loosen the retainer. When the
retainer is free of the caster, lay the assembly aside on the
oor.
After service or cleaning is complete,
return the grill to its position in the bay
and reattach the anchors by placing
the retainer on the caster post and turning
the knob clockwise to tighten.
NOTE: For safety reasons, the grill must be secured in the grill
bay in this manner before operation can resume.

UNIT INSTALLATION
Rating Plate Location
IMPORTANT: Rating plates for this appliance are located in
two places: 1) inside back panel on left side, 2) under front
control panel on center.
General Information
This equipment must be installed by a competent factory
trained, certied, licensed and / or authorized service or
installation person.
WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.
Prior to installation, the four casters, supplied loose with the
grill, must be securely located on the underside of the base.
The casters tted with a brake must be located at the front of
the grill.
This appliance should be connected to a potential
equalization system. A labeled equipotential bonding point
is tted to the rear of the grill.
It is recommended that this grill be connected to a residual
current (earth leakage) device with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA. The leakage current of this grill will not
exceed 5mA.
CAUTION: Prior to installation, check the electrical supply
to ensure input voltage and phase match the equipment
voltage rating and phase. See data plate located rear left side
of grill and lower front panel.
Grill is to be located directly under ventilation system.
Once installed in the grill station underneath the ventilation
system, the platens, in their highest position, must not
interfere with the lower lip of the ventilation system hood.
The raised position of each platen is adjusted by raising
or lowering the upper of the two microswitches, (limit
switches), in the rear of the grill. The lower microswitch
position must not be adjusted.
Grill plate must be level front to back, side to side and
diagonally. This leveling must be done with the unit under
the hood and in it’s normal operational position to prevent
warping of the grill plate.
NOTE: Once the platen elevation is adjusted, set the
mechanical over-run bolts in the rear of the unit to prevent
accidental over-run in the event of failure of the upper
microswitch.
NOTE: Fuses are installed to prevent damage in the event of
failure of the upper microswitch.
Installation shall be made with the gas connector that has
been specied by The Jack in the Box Corporation and is
supplied loose with the grill. The quick disconnect tting and
gas shut o valve must be installed in the direction indicated
on their outer body.
NOTE: When checking gas pressure, be sure that all other
equipment on the same gas line is on.
The appliance and its individual shut-o valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system pressures in excess of 1/2
PSIG (3.45kPa, 14”WC).
Adequate clearance must be provided for servicing and
proper operation.
National Codes Requirements:
The type of gas for which the grill is equipped is stamped on
the data plate on the inside rear of the unit and on the lower
front panel. Connect a grill stamped for Natural Gas (High (H)
or Low (L) Caloric Value) only to Natural Gas; connect those
stamped for Propane Gas only to Propane gas.
The installation must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1-1998 or latest edition, NFPA No. 54 – latest
edition and National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 or
latest edition and/or local code to assure safe and ecient
operation. In Canada, the installation must comply with CSA
B149.1 and local codes where applicable.
In Canada, electrical connection must comply with
applicable sections of the Canadian Electrical Code, C22.1
- 1990, latest edition, “Safety Standard for Installation,
Part 1” and C22.2- No. O-M 1982 latest edition , “General
Requirements, Part 2”.
Gas Connections, and Pipe Sizing:
The size of the gas line is very important. If the line is too
small, the gas pressure at the burner manifold will be low.
This will cause slow recovery and delayed ignition. The
incoming gas pressure line should be a minimum of 1-1/2".
All grills require a 3/4" connection.
Before connecting new pipe the pipe must be blown out to
dispose of any foreign particles. These particles will cause
improper operation.
When using thread compound, use small amounts on male
threads only. Use a compound that is not aected by the
chemical action of LP gases. Avoid applying compound
to the rst two threads to prevent clogging of the burner
orices and control valve.
Have the installer check all gas plumbing with a soap
solution for leaks. DO NOT USE matches, candles or other
ignition sources in checking for leaks.
Part # JIBSM08 Rev.6 (08/04/09)Page 9
UNIT INSTALLATION continued
The grill must be disconnected from the gas supply system
when pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of
1/2 psi (3.45kPa).
Check the data plate to determine the proper type of gas
before connecting the quick disconnect or piping from the
building gas supply.
An incoming gas pressure test nipple is provided on the
incoming gas manifold for pressure checks.
Minimum incoming gas pressure for Natural Gas is 6" W.C.
Maximum incoming gas pressure for Natural Gas is 13" W.C.
Minimum incoming gas pressure for Propane is 10" W.C.
Maximum incoming gas pressure for Propane is 13" W.C.
Burner operating gas pressure can be checked at the outlet
side of the gas valve at the pressure test point.
Burner manifold pressure for Natural Gas must be 3.2" W.C.;
Burner pressure for Propane must be 3.5" W.C.
To adjust the burner pressure, remove the sealing screw
from the pressure test nipple, connect a manometer, remove
the sealing cap on the gas valve regulator, turn on the grill,
adjust the screw in the regulator to give the correct pressure,
turn o the grill, ret the regulator sealing cap, remove the
manometer, replace the seal screw in the test nipple and test
for gas leaks.
Gas pressures should be checked by the local Gas Company
or an authorized service agency only.
Test all piping and connections for gas leaks. A rich soap
solution should be used for this purpose. Never use a ame.
Appliances Equipped with Casters:
1. The installation shall be made with a connector that
complies with the Standard for Connectors for Moveable
Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69/CSA 6.16, Addenda Z21.69B2006/CSA 6.16B-2006 (or latest edition), and a quickdisconnect device that complies with the Standard for
Quick Disconnects for Use with Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41/
CSA 6.9, Addenda Z21.41A-2005/CSA 6.16A-2005 (or

Grease Bucket:
The griddle is supplied with two stainless steel side grease
buckets that must be installed before the unit is used. Each
bucket slides into position along stainless steel supports.
Ventilation and Clearance:
One of the most important considerations for ecient grill
operation is proper ventilation and air supply. Insure the
grill is installed so the products of combustion are removed
eciently and the ventilation system does not produce
drafts that interfere with proper burner operation.
Photo G
Electrical Connection
Terminal Block Connection
All electrically operated appliances must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes; or in the absence
of local codes, with the latest edition of National Wiring
Regulations. A wiring diagram is located behind the rear
panel of the grill. See rating plate in rear of grill, or lower front
panel for proper voltages.
Proper operation of exhaust fans (speed, rotation and
adjustment) is essential. In addition to the exhaust system
the make-up air system, (HVAC), for the kitchen is the
air supply for the combustion air for the burners. Proper
incoming air is essential for all gas operated equipment. Poor
incoming make-up will cause inecient burner operation,
delayed ignition and possible burner failure.
Any ventilation system will break down if improperly
maintained. The duct system, the hood, and the lters must
be cleaned on a regular basis and kept grease free.
The room containing the grill is required to have a
permanent air vent. The minimum eective area of the vent
shall be 0.7 in.² per kW. Air vents shall be of such a size to
compensate for the eects of any extract fan in the premises.
Changing to a dierent type of gas
Changing from one gas type to another must only be
done by a Qualied Gas Engineer and according to local
regulations.
Part # JIBSM08 Rev 7 (08/04/09)Page 12
UNIT INSTALLATION continued
The gas valve, enrichment tube igniter and orice must be
changed to that supplied by the Authorized Service Agency
for the gas you are changing to. On completion of changing
these three components, you should test all joints for leaks,
verify that the manifold pressure is adjusted to the value
given in the specication pages in this manual, and repeat
the burner air adjustment procedure. This is to be found
on the following page in this manual. When the burner is
correctly adjusted, the alternate rating plate decal must
be placed over the existing rating plates to reect the new
category for which the grill is set.
To change from one gas type to another within the same
category (High to Low Caloric Value Natural Gas or vice
versa), change the orice to that supplied by the Authorized
Service Agency.
Burner Air Adjustment
1. The Xpress Grill gas model burner is a stainless steel
rectangular assembly that receives forced air from a fan
mounted below the burner. The fan air quality can be
slightly adjusted if the ame quality is poor to the point
that the ame sensor will be unreliable.
2. Loosen the lock nut holding the air adjustment in place.
Slowly turn the air adjustment out (counterclockwise).
The ame should be stable (no lifting) and be 1/8” to 1/4”
predominately blue.
1. Loosen the two 5\16” hex head #10 screws just outboard
of the igniter. This allows the igniter and its bracket
vertical movement.
2. With the Microamp meter in the ame sense line, and the
adjustment screws just loose enough to be able to move
the igniter assembly up and down, ignite the burner
and move the igniter up and down until the maximum
Microamp reading is achieved.
3. Tighten up the adjuster screws and the job is complete.
Igniter Inspection
The ignitor is next to the ame sensor in the burner
compartment. Normally, it should not require any
adjustment. If, however, the gap between the ignitor tip
and the burner is too great, or the ignitor seems to generate
a weak spark, replace the ignitor, and recheck the new
component for normal operation.
Igniter Adjustment
The Igniter location is factory set and does not normally
require adjustment. Adjustment should only be conducted
if the Micro-Amp (µA) reading taken by placing a MicroAmp (µA) meter in line between the ignition module and
the ame sense wire reads below 0.22 Microamps (µA). The
normal reading is around 0.80 (µA) to 1.5 (µA). If the reading
is low, the igniter can be a moved up or down to achieve the
proper signal. The following is a description of the process.
Note: the correct air fuel mixture and gas pressures must be
obtained before proceeding with igniter adjustment
