SOUTION TO TEST ALL JOINTS FOR GAS LEAKS.

DURING INITIAL USE, OR AFTER SERVICE, IF PILOT
DOES NOT IGNITE ON FIRST TRY THE MAIN GAS
VALVE MUST BE TURNED OFF FOR AT LEAST FIVE
MINUTES.

The data plate is located left end of griddle behind
control door. The griddle voltage, gas specs, serial
number, pipe size, and clearance specifi cat ion s are
on the data plate. This information should be
carefully read and understood before proceeding
with the installation.

The installation of any components such as a vent
hood, grease extractors, fire extinguisher systems,
must conform to their applicable National, State and
locally recognized installation standards.

During the first few hours of operation you may
notice a small amount of smoke coming off the
griddle plate, and a faint odor from the smoke. This
is normal for a new griddle and will disappear after
the first few hours of use.

EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION

GAS GRIDDLE

EXTERIOR

Griddle

♦

!

The griddle dimensions are 17” (43.18cm) High, 30” (76.20cm) Deep, and width is dependent on

the actual model number.

!

The Sides, Bottom, and Rear wall are constructed of double wall stainless steel, which allows

closer installation to combustible surfaces.

!

The griddle surface is made of 1” thick, highly polished steel to reduce hot and cold spots, recovery

problems, warping, and ensure even heat to the edges of the griddle.

♦ AGC Hood

!

The Hood dimension (not including griddle) are 19 1/2” (49.5cm) High with hood down, 38 3/8”

(97.5cm) High with hood up, 36 7/8” (93.5cm) Deep, and 23 7/8” (58.6cm) Wide.

!

The Hood wrap is constructed of stainless steel and uses infrared heat to broil the product.

CONTROLS

The Gas Griddle is available either with the Lang Accu-Temp controls (G-2TI, G-3TI, G-4TI, G-5TI, G­6TI), the Lang Accu-Temp Direct Spark controls (G-2TDSI, G-3TDSI, G-4TDSI, G-5TDSI, G-6TDSI), the
Lang Selectronic controls (G-2EI, G-3EI, G-4EI, G-5EI, G-6EI,), and the Lang Selectronic Direct Spark
controls (G-2EDSI, G-3EDSI, G-4EDSI, G-5EDSI, G-6EDSI):

♦ G-TI (Thermostatic ignition)

!

Each twelve-inch section has its own easy to use manual thermostat with a temperature range from
175°F to 450°F in 50° increments.

!

Each twelve -inch section has it’s own individual burner for high efficiency, quick r ecovery and
outstanding performance.

♦ G-TDSI (Direct Spark, Thermostatic ignition)

!

Same dependable control features as the G-TI with the convenience of the direct spark ignition
system.

♦ G-EI (Electronic ignition)

!

Each twelve-inch section has its own temperature selector switch that snaps into place to lock in
any temperature from 175°F to 450°F in 25° increments.

!

Each twelve-inch section of the griddle is controlled by an area sensitive RTD probe, which can
sense and react to a temperature change of +/- 4°F.

!

Each twelve -inch section has it’s own individua l burner for high efficiency, quic k recovery a nd
outstanding performance.

♦ G-EDSI (Direct Spark, Electronic ignition)

!

Same great control features as the G-EI with the convenience of the direct spark ignition system.

INSTALLATION

RECEIVING THE GRIDDLE

Upon receipt, check for freight damage, both visible and concealed. Visible damage should be noted on the freight
bill at the time of delivery and signed by the carrier's agent. Concealed loss or da mage means loss or damage, which
does not become apparent until the merchandise has been unpacked.

If concealed loss or damage is discovered upon unpacking, make a written request for inspection by the carrier's
agent within 15 days of delivery. All packing material should be kept for inspection.

Do not return damaged merchandise to Lang Manufacturi ng Company. File your claim with the carrier.
Prior to un-crating, move the griddle as near its intended location as practical. The crating will help protect the unit

from the physical damage normally associated with moving it through hallways and doorways.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The griddle is supplied with a cord and plug. The receptacle is not provided with the griddle.
Follow the receptacle manufacturer’s instructions when connecting the receptacle to the power supply.

GAS CONNECTION

This griddle is manufactured for use with the type of gas indicted on the nameplate. Contact the factory if your type
of gas does not match the nameplate data.

All gas connectors must be in accordance with local codes and comply with the National Fuel Federal Gas Codes
ANSI Z223.1 latest edition.

This appliance should be installed with a separate gas valve in the gas line ahead of the unit. Use a 3/4 inch or larger
gas supply line.

Remove

transportation only. The rear burner shield must be removed to gain access to the nuts.
A pressure regulator for the type of gas specified is supplied with each appliance.
This regulator must be installed in the gas supply line. (Note the direction of the gas flow arrow.) The pressure in

the manifold of the appliance should be tested with a manometer and the regulator adjusted for proper pressure with
the appliance operating at full fire. A 1/8 inch NPT tap is provided in the manifold for connecting a manometer.

Correct manifold pressures are:
5 inches water column for natural gas
10 inches water column for propane
When replacing the plug in the manifold, a pipe joint compound or sealant should be used that is resistant to the

action of liquid petroleum gas.
Initial adjustments are the responsibility of the installer and are not chargeable to Lang Manufacturing Company.
After the griddle is in its final position, adjust the legs to create 1/4 inch slant from back to front. This will allow the

grease to run into the grease gutter and provide the proper combustion air for the burners.

the 5/16 inch nuts securing the rear of burners. These nuts are for securing the main burners during

GAS GRIDDLE

1) Verify connections at plug and terminal block

2) Incoming Volt - Single Phase L1______

3) Gas pressure is set for 4.5” WC (Natural Gas), 9” WC (Propane).
Ensure that the regulator is installed in the correct direction.

4) Ensure Griddle body is tilted 1/8” lower in front. Confirm there is
4” clearance below Griddle.

5) Ensure that burner flame is stable and not lifting off of burner.
Flame should light around the “U” of each burner with no hesitation.
Height of flame should be 1 1/4” to 1 1/2” from burner surface.

Flames must not lift off of burner ports.

START-UPS

6) Ensure that spark electrode does not continue to spark after ignition.
The tip of the spark electrode and sensor electrodes must have flame
on them and glowing red.

7) Verify actual temperature at 350 °F ________ °F.

Note:

Install thermocouple wire in center of 12” section for that
control area. Let griddle cycle off and on 3 times before recording
temperature.
