2.1 General
All Lang Char broilers are shipped with a gas pressure regulator packed with the unit. All units are adjusted, tested, and inspected at the factory prior to shipment.
A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed in the gas supply (service) line ahead of the char broiler and gas pressure regulator for safety and ease of future service.
The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed on the appliance prior to connecting the equipment to the gas line. Failure to install a regulator will void the equipment warranty and result in a potentially hazardous condition.
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 test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI.
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 1/2 PSI.

LEVELING
leveled both front-to-back and side-to-si de. If it is not level, burner combus tion may be erratic, and the unit will not function efficiently. The LRB series unit broiler cooking surface is inclined for improved performance. The spirit level should be placed on the upper edge of the chassis for this leveling procedure.
AIR SUPPLY & VENTILATION
kept clear to avoid any obstruction of the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Adequate clearance must be maintained at all times in front and at the sides of the appliances for servicing and proper operation. Your unit is supplied from the factory with adjustable l egs, these legs must not be removed for any reason.
Means must be provided for any commercial, heavy-duty cooking appliance to exhaust combustion waste products to the outside of the building. Usual practice is to place the unit under an exhaust hood. Filters and drip troughs should be part of any indust rial hood, bu t consult local codes bef ore constructing and installing a hood. 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 draf ts, eith er of which can interfere with pilot or burner performance and can also be hard to diagnose. Air movement should be checked during installation ; if pilot or bu rner outage problem s pers ist, make­up air openings or baffles may have to be provided in the room.
GAS CONNECTION

PRESSURE REG UL AT O R
on the incoming service line for safe and efficient operation, since service pressure may fluctuate with local demand. The installer normally supplies the manual shut-off valve, but the pressure regulator is packed inside the char broiler.
The regulators supplied for Lang units have 3/4" inlet/outl et open ings and are adjust ed at the factory for 5" WC (natural gas) or 10" WC (propane) dependi ng on the customer's ordering instructions. Care must be taken to ensure that the regulator is not installed in the path of flue gases, or in other high heat areas.
Prior to connecting the regulator, check the incoming line pressure, as these regulators can only withstand a maximum pressure of 1/2-PS I (14" WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a step-down regulator will be required. The arrow forged into the bottom of the regulator body shows the gas flow direction; it should point downstream to the appliance. The red air vent cap on the top regulator is part of the regulator and should not be removed.
Any adjustments to regulators must be made only by qualified service personnel w ith the proper test equipment.
RIGID CONNECTIONS
them out with compressed air to clear any dirt particles, threading chips, or other foreign matter before installing a service line. Those particles will clog orifices when gas pressure is applied.
All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for LP gas, and all connections must be tes ted with a soa py water solution before lighting any pilots.
- All commercial cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator
- Double-check any installer-supplied gas pipes visually and/or blow

FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS, CONNECTORS AND CASTERS
flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect fittings, the installer must use a heavy-duty, AGA design-certified commercial flexible connector of at least 3/4" NPT (with suitable strain reliefs). The flexible connector must comply with the standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 and addendum Z21.69a (or latest edition) and a quick-disconnect dev ice that complies with the standard for quick-disconnect devices for use with Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41 and addendum Z21.41b (or latest edition). If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, make sure to reconnect restraint after the appliance has been returned to its originally installed position.
Domestic gas or water connectors are not suitable and must never be used
Restraining device may be attached to the back frame/panel of the unit. All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for LP gas and all connections
must be tested with a soapy water solution before lighting pilots.

INITIAL START-UP

CAUTION:
CAUTION:
INITIAL PILOT LIGHTING
All Lang char broilers are adjusted and tested before leaving the factory, effectively matching them to sea level conditions. Adjustments and calibrations to assure proper operation may be necessary on installation to meet local conditions, low gas characteristics, to correct possible problems caused by rough handling or vibration during shipment, and are to be perform ed only by qualified s ervi ce personnel. These adjustments are the responsibility of the customer and/or dealer and are not covered by our warranty.
Check all gas connections for leaks with a soapy water solution before lighting any pilots.
NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
gas connection is extremely dangerou s. Before lighting any pilots, make sure that burner valves and thermostats are turned "off". Broiler pilots can be accessed through the openings in the front cover panel in the case of counter
or floor mounted units. Pilot flame adjustments for all units can be accomplished through the use of the adjusting screw(s) found at the front of the unit.
ALWAYS KEEP THE AREA NEAR THE APPLIANCE FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
KEEP FLOOR IN FRONT OF EQUIPMENT CLEAN AND DRY. IF SPILLS OCCUR, CLEAN IMMEDIATELY, TO AVOID THE DANGER OF SLIPS OR FALLS.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
when maintained properly. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your char broiler must be kept clean during the working day and thoroughly cleaned at the end of the day.
DAILY CLEANING:
MOST CLEANERS ARE HARMFUL TO THE SKIN, EYES, MUCOUS MEMBRANES AND CLOTHING. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO WEAR RUBBER GLOVES, GOGGLES OR FACE SHIELD AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. CAREFULLY READ THE WARNING AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THE LABEL OF THE CLEANER TO BE USED.
DO NOT USE YOUR HAND TO CHECK CHAR BROILER TEMPERATURE.
Service on this, or any other, LANG appliance must be performed by qualified personnel only. Consult your authorized service station directory or call the factory at 1-800-224-LANG (5264), or WWW.LANGWORLD.COM For the service station nearest you.
USE OF ANY REPLACEMENT PARTS OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED BY LANG OR THEIR AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTORS CAN CAUSE BODILY INJURY TO THE OPERATOR AND DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND WILL VOID ALL WARR ANTIES.
BE SURE ALL OPERATORS READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
- Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer
Remove large pieces of food residue and carefully scrape spillovers from the drip tray below the cooking surface.
Wash all exterior and interior surfaces with a hot soapy water solution. DO NOT use harsh abrasives on any portion of the stainless or painted surfaces.
Cast iron grates should be scraped with a wire brush frequently, and periodically soaked in a hot
water solution to remove grease from the pores of the cast iron. NEVER expose the grate(s) to extreme heat for the purpose of burning off excess grease. This practice will shorten the useful life of the grates.
PERIODIC CLEANING:
Check the ventilation system periodically to see that nothing has fallen down into the exhaust vents.
A qualified service company should check your char broiler for safe and efficient operation at least yearly.
STAINLESS STEEL:
water during the day and with a liquid cleaner designed for this material at the end of each day. DO NOT USE steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers or powders to clean stainless surfaces. If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak in hot water to loosen the material, then use a wood or nylon scraper. DO NOT USE a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel! Scratches are almost impossible to remove.
- All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy
