Installation

SET UP

1. Remove all packing material and tape, as well as any protective plastic from the equipment.

2. Place the equipment in the desired position and height.

3. Clean and dry the equipment thoroughly before using.

INSTALLATION

The installation of this equipment must conform with local codes, or with the National Gas Code, ANSIZ223.1/ NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, as applicable.

• The equipment 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

• The equipment 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

CLEARANCE AND POSITIONING AROUND THE EQUIPMENT:

• This equipment must be installed adjacent to non-combustible surfaces only with a minimum spacing of 6” from all sides. This equipment must be a distance of 6” from other equipment. The equipment must have the 4” legs installed and be placed on a noncombustible surface.

AIR SUPPLY AND VENTILATION:

• The area in front and around the equipment must be kept clear to avoid any obstruction of the ow of

combustion and ventilation air.

• Adequate clearance must be maintained at all times in front of and at the sides of the equipment for

servicing and proper ventilation.

6

Installation

PRESSURE REGULATOR:

• All commercial cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for safe and e󰀩cient operation. The regulator provided for this equipment is adaptable for both Natural gas and LP gas.

• Regulator specications: ¾” NPT inlet and outlet, factory adjusted for 4” WC Natural Gas standard and may be converted by qualied personnel to be used for Propane at 10” WC.

Prior to connecting the regulator, check the incoming line pressure. The regulator can only withstand a

maximum pressure of ½ PSI (14” WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a step down regulator before the regulator provided will be required. The arrow above (FLOW) shows gas ow direction and should point downstream to the equipment.

WALL MOUNTING

1. Make sure the wall bracket(s) are level and properly spaced on the wall so that they will align with the mounting bracket on the rear of the cheesemelter frame.

2. Attach the wall mount bracket(s) to the wall with suitable fasteners (not supplied) to match the on site

construction. 48, 60 and 72 models will have two wall mount brackets.

3. Hang the cheesemelter from its built-in mounting bracket onto the wall mounting brackets.

GAS CONVERSION

Please check the rating plate for the gas type to be connected for operation. If the available gas is di󰀨erent from the gas type specied on the rating plate. A gas conversion procedure should be performed by a qualied technician. It is required that a trained gas service technician with the necessary tools, instruments and skills

perform the conversion.

To convert the gas, following steps must be completed:

1. Remove all gas burner orices and install the provided conversion kits.

2. Set the regulator to same type of gas by inverting the regulator spring plug like below pictures.

7

Operation

LIGHTING THE PILOT

The manifold units are equipped with standing pilots and each should be lit immediately after the gas is supplied to the equipment.

1. Before attempting to light the pilots, turn o󰀨 the main gas valve to the equipment and wait 5 minutes to clear the gas.

2. Turn o󰀨 all gas control knobs.

3. Turn on control valve and light all pilots.

4. The pilot burner must be lit from the top. Hold an ignition source and light the pilot. When the ame is stable, remove ignition source.

5. Turn o󰀨 the main gas valve to shut down the equipment.

Smoke appearing on initial start of the equipment is normal. This is a result of the painted coating burning o󰀨. Allow the equipment to “burn in” for at least 20 minutes before the rst use.

PILOT FLAME HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT:

• The pilot ame on the equipment has been factory adjusted. When adjustment is necessary, adjust the pilot ames as small as possible but high enough to light the burner immediately when the burner valve is turned to the highest setting. Access to the pilot ame adjustment screw is obtained through the holes in

the front panel.

OPERATION

Before initial use, turn the gas control knob to the maximum setting and allow the equipment to burn-in for 20 minutes. Seeing smoke coming from the cooking chamber is normal during burn-in. After 20 minutes of burn-in, equipment is ready for use.

1. To ignite the burners, depress and turn the gas control knob to high position.

2. The valve should always be set at maximum positions. If it is set in the middle positions, this might cause pressure drop after the nozzle, thus leading to poor mixing of gas and air. The burners might have strong

yellow tips of ame.

3. After cooking is done, please turn the valve to o󰀨 position.

Maintenance

CLEANING

To maintain the appearance and increase the service life, clean your equipment daily. DO NOT clean equipment with steel wool.

1. Allow the equipment to cool completely before cleaning.

2. Using a wire brush, scrape the grill grate(s) to remove any food residue.

3. To clean equipment, use either a damp cloth, sponge with soapy water or a metal scraper.

4. Dry grates thoroughly to prevent rusting.

8

Maintenance

5. Empty and clean the drip tray.

MAINTENANCE

• A qualied service company should check the unit for safe and e󰀩cient operation on an annual basis.

• Gas piping shall be a certain size and installed to provide a supply of gas su󰀩cient to meet the full gas input of the equipment.

• A manual shut o󰀨 valve should be installed upstream from the manifold within 4 ft. (1.2m) of the equipment

and in a position where it can be reached in the event of an emergency.

• Check entire gas piping system for leaks every so often. Using a gas leak detector or soapy water solution is recommended.

• Install equipment under e󰀩cient exhaust hood with ameproof lters with a distance of no less than 4 feet between the top of the equipment and the lters or any other combustible materials.

*Shipped setup for Natural Gas and includes a kit for conversion to LPG.

Troubleshooting

Burner does not come on when the control knob is

turned on.

Too much heat. Burner valves adjusted too high.

Uneven heat side to side. Burner valves improperly adjusted.

Uneven heat front to back. Appliance is not level front to back.

Pilot burner will not stay lit. Pilot ame is set too low. Adjust pilot to allow for gas

Problem with gas valve. (Call for service).

Pilot burner not lit.

Low gas pressure. (Call for service).

Faulty ventilation. Overrated gas pressure. Improperly adjusted burner.

Appliance is not level side to side. Improperly adjusted burner.
