NOTICE

Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection Association, Inc. states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should comply with all local codes.

Southbend reserves the right to change specications and product design without notice. Such revisions do not entitle

the buyer to corresponding changes, additions, or replacements for previously purchased equipment. This product is intended for commercial use only, not for household use.

The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas 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 shutoff 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).

2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 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).

CLEARANCES

There must be adequate clearance between the broiler and adjacent construction due to the heat generated by the broiler. Clearance must also be provided for servicing and for operation.

The minimum clearance from non-combustible construction is 1” on the sides (to permit combustion air to enter the sides of the broiler). To service the broiler components, all models require at least 6” accessibility clearance on the right and left side.

Adequate clearance must be provided in front of the broiler for operation and cleaning.

The high-temperature ue products from the broiler burners ow out through a vented cover on top of the broiler.

Installation under a vented hood is recommended.

WARNING

MINIMUM CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

The countertop model requires a minimum clearance from combustible surfaces of 1” on the sides.

The wall-mount model requires a minimum clearance from combustible surfaces of 1” on the sides.

The range-mount model should comply with the range’s minimum clearance from combustible surfaces of 6” on the sides and rear.

VENTILATION

WARNING

Improper ventilation can result in personal injury or death. Ventilation which fails to properly remove ue products can

cause headaches, drowsiness, nausea, or could result in death.

All units must be installed in such a manner that the ow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed. Provisions for adequate air supply must be provided. Do not obstruct the front of the unit at the bottom where the air lter is

located or below the oven door as combustion air enters at these locations.

SPECIFICATIONS

NOTICE

Proper ventilation is the owner’s responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be covered by the warranty.

Be sure to inspect and clean the ventilation system according to the ventilation equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

Canopies are set over ranges, ovens, etc., for ventilation purposes. It is recommended that a canopy extend 6” past the appliance and the bottom edge be located 78” above the oor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45° or more from

the horizontal. This position prevents dripping grease and facilitates collecting the run-off grease in a drip pan, usually

installed with a lter.

A strong exhaust fan tends to create a vacuum in the room and may interfere with burner performance or may extinguish pilot ames. Fresh air openings approximately equal to the fan area will relieve such a vacuum.

The exhaust fan should be installed at least 2” above the vent opening at the top of the broiler.

If the broiler is connected directly to an outside ue, a CSA design-certied down draft diverter must be installed.

NOTICE

Due to the variety of problems encountered by outside weather conditions, venting by canopies or wall fans is preferred over any type of direct venting.

If the unit is connected directly to an outside ue, a CSA design certied down draft diverter must be installed.

In case of unsatisfactory performance on any appliance, check the appliance with the exhaust fan turned OFF. Do this only long enough to check whether doing so corrects any problems with equipment performance. Then turn the exhaust fan back on and let it run to remove any exhaust that may have accumulated during the test.

GAS SUPPLY

The broiler is design-certied for operation on natural gas or propane. The broiler is shipped congured and adjusted for the type of gas specied by the purchaser, which is indicated on the serial plate (see Figure 1). Connect the broiler ONLY to the type of gas for which it is congured and adjusted.

Sectional range (eld mount), wall mount, or countertop broilers will be supplied with the appropriate regulator and will require eld piping. Restaurant range mounted broilers will connect to the existing regulator on the restaurant range oven

base.

A model that mounts on the ue riser of a range will have a 3/8” rear gas connection (with a 3/8” male NPT connector) extending through the rear of the ue riser (see Figure 2 on page 7).

Wall-mount and countertop models will have a 3/8” rear gas connection (with a 3/8” male NPT connector). The gas

connection can extend directly out the rear of the broiler (near the bottom right-rear corner).

Minimum supply pressure is 7” W.C. for natural gas, 11” W.C. for propane. If using a exible-hose gas connection, the

I.D. of the hose must not be smaller than the connector on the broiler, and must comply with ANSI Z21.69. Provide an adequate means of restraint to prevent undue strain on the gas connection.

If applicable, the vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator must be installed to the outdoors in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable.

An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized or low pressure lines will restrict the volume of gas required for satisfactory performance. A 1/8” pressure tap is located on the manifold to measure the manifold pressure.

Purge the supply line to clean out dust, dirt, or other foreign matter before connecting the line to the broiler.

All pipe joints and connections must be tested thoroughly for gas leaks. Use only soapy water for testing on all gases.

NEVER use an open ame to check for gas leaks. All connections must be checked for leaks after the range has been put into operation. Test pressure should not exceed 14” W.C. (3.47 kPa).

INSTALLATION

NOTICE

These installation procedures must be followed by qualied personnel or warranty will be void.

1. The appliance and its individual shutoff 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) or 35 mbar (14” W.C).

2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 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) 35 mbar (14” W.C).

NOTICE

EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES: It is recommended that the Southbend equipment be installed under a ventilation

hood. Consult local codes for proper installation of hoods. Proper ventilation is the owner’s responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be covered by warranty.

NOTICE

In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts all gas appliances vented by either mechanical systems or ventilation hoods shall comply with 248 CMR interlocking requirements.

STEP 1: UNPACKING

IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE

All containers should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier has assumed

responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If damaged equipment is received, either apparent or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.

Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. The freight bill must then be signed by the carrier representative (Driver). If the bill is not signed, the carrier may refuse the claim. The carrier can supply the necessary forms.

A request for inspection must be made to the carrier within 15 days if there is concealed damage or loss that is not apparent until after the equipment is uncrated. The carrier should arrange an inspection. Be certain to hold all contents plus all packing material.

For each section, do the following:

1. Cut the banding straps and remove the corrugated cardboard surrounding the broiler. If legs were shipped in the same container, set them aside for installation in later steps of this procedure. Do not remove any tags or labels attached to the broiler until the broiler is installed and working properly.

2. Cut the banding strap holding the broiler to the wooden skid.

3. If installing the broiler over a range, go to Step 2a. If installing the broiler on a wall, go to Step 2b. If installing the broiler on legs for countertop use, go to Step 2c.

INSTALLATION

STEP 2A: MOUNT ON FLUE RISER OF RANGE

If the broiler is to be mounted over a range, a special ue riser is shipped with the broiler and range. Depending on the shipping requirements, the broiler, ue-riser, and range base may already be partially or completely assembled.

1. Attach the ue riser to the rear of the range using the installation procedure included in the range manual, but do not attach the wall shield (the back of the ue riser) yet.

2. Lift the broiler (using two people is recommended) and hook the broiler-hook over the top-front edge of the ue

riser. If necessary, move the broiler left or right so that the holes in the top of the broiler hook line-up with the

holes in the top of the ue riser, then secure the broiler-hook to the ue riser using three #10 self tapping screws

provided.

3. Secure the bottom of the broiler to the ue riser with the four 1/4” self-tapping screws provided. The holes are

accessible from the rear of the unit behind the wall shield.

4. Attach the wall shield, which forms the rear of the ue riser. The gas supply inlet extending out from the rear of the broiler should be accessible through the corresponding hole on the back of the ue riser.

5. Go on to Step 3.
