from the factory for use with natural gas. The unit
can easily be converted for use with propane gas:
see propane gas.
-IMPORTANT-
CAUTION
For your safety, do not store or use gasoline
or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance. Keep
the appliance area clear and free from
combustibles.
For your protection, we recommend a
qualified installing agency install this
appliance. They should be familiar with gas
installations and your local gas
requirements. In any case, your gas company
should be called to approve the final
installation. In addition, there should be
posted, in a prominent location, detailed
instructions to be followed in the event the
operator smells gas. Obtain the instructions
from the local gas supplier.
INSTALL IN NON-COMBUSTIBLE
LOCATIONS ONLY! Clearance from non-
combustible construction must be 6" from back and
sides.

ACCORDANCE WITH THE CURRENT CAN/
CGA-B149.1 NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION
CODE OR CAN/CGA-B149.2 PROPANE
INSTALLATION CODE AND LOCAL
CODES WHERE APPLICABLE.
CAUTION
This appliance, its pressure regulator 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 PSIG. This appliance and its
pressure regulator 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 PSIG.
EXHAUST CANOPY
Open hearth broilers inherently create a good
deal of heat and smoke and should be installed
under an efficient exhaust hood with flame proof
filters. A vertical distance of not less than 48" shall
be provided between the top of the appliance and
filters or any other combustible material. Exhaust
installation must conform to local codes.

GAS PIPING
Gas piping shall be of such size and so installed as to
provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the full
gas input of the appliance. If the appliance is to be
connected to existing piping, it shall be checked to
determine if it has adequate capacity. Joint
compound shall be used sparingly and only on the
male threads of the pipe joints. Such compounds
shall be resistant to the action of L.P. gases.
WARNING: Any loose dirt or metal particles which
are allowed to enter the gas lines on this appliance
will damage the valve and affect its operation.
When installing this appliance, all pipe and fittings
must be free from all internal loose dirt.
PROPANE GAS
This charbroiler is equipped with fixed orifice
hoods and is shipped from the factory for use with
natural gas. To convert to propane gas, install the
burner orifice hoods, located in the grease drawer,
as follows:
1. Remove grill, radiants and burners.
2. Remove the burner orifice hoods and install
the orifice hoods supplied.
3. Replace the burners, radiants, and grill.
4. Set manifold pressure to (10) inch water column.
A 1/8" pipe plug on the burner manifold can be
removed for attaching a pressure gauge.
Remove the slotted, or hex-threaded plug from
the pressure regulator. Invert the plug and
re-install. The letters "LP" should now be visible
on the plug. The regulator is now set for 10"
(25.4 cm) water column. Attach the conversion
label, supplied with the unit, close to the
nameplate.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Check entire piping system for leaks. Soap and
water solution or other material acceptable for the
purpose, shall be used in locating gas leakage.
CAUTION
Matches, candle flame or other sources of
ignition shall not be used for this purpose.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
A convertible pressure regulator is provided with
each charbroiler. It should be connected to the inlet
pipe at the rear of the unit. The gas supply is then
connected to it. It is shipped set for 6" water
column manifold pressure for use with natural gas.
Allow 6" clearance from back of unit to wall for
servicing and installation.
MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVE
A manual shut off valve should be installed
upstream from the manifold and within six feet of
the charbroiler.
PILOT LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
The charbroiler is equipped with standing pilots, and
should be lit immediately after the gas is turned on.
1. Turn off main valve to unit.
2. Turn off all knobs and pilot valves and wait 5
minutes to clear gas.
3. The pilot lights on this broiler have been turned
off at the factory. Turn the adjustable screw 3-4
times counterclockwise to open.
4. Turn on main valve and light all pilots.
5. Adjust pilot light flames as small as possible, but
high enough to light burner immediately when
burner valve is turned on high.
6. Turn burner knobs to desired setting.
9
7. To turn burners off, turn knobs off.
Page 7
SHUTTING DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
Turn the burner valve knobs to the off position
to turn burners off.
PLACING LAVA ROCK ON GRATES
Open the lava rock bags and place rock evenly on
grates. Do not cover the grates with more than
two layers of lava rock. DO NOT PUT MORE
THAN 5 LBS. OF ROCK PER EACH BURNER!
PLACING RADIANTS
After the unit is unpacked and installed, place 2
radiants above each burner. Install each radiant on
3 pins of the rear wall and on 1 pin of the front wall
of the liner weld assembly. Refer to the exploded
view in this manual for orientation of the radiants.
BURNER IGNITION AND ADJUSTMENT
1. To ignite burners turn burner valve knob to "HI"
position.
2. Slowly decrease openings of air shutters to
give a soft blue flame having luminous tips,
then slowly increase openings to a point where
the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue flame
is obtained.
BURNER OPERATION
Each burner is controlled by an individual high-low,
on-off valve. An infinite number of broiling
temperatures may be obtained by turning the
burner valve knob to any position between high and
low. It is possible through this arrangement to have
a high heat or searing section, while having a low
heat finishing or holding section. For the searing
operation, set the valves for the section at a
position of "HI" or close to it. For holding or
finishing, set the valves closer to the "LOW"
position on the dial. You select the heat pattern you
like, and set the valves accordingly.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
LIGHTING
When broiler is first lit, it will smoke for
approximately 20-30 minutes until the preservation
oils and impurities are burned off.
BROILING
Turn valves on and pre-heat unit on "HI" before
attempting to broil. You will have to experiment
with the grill settings and the valve settings for your
particular food products. We recommend that you
set the grate at the full tilt position to start. This
position allows the grease to run down the grate
into the grease tray, reducing flare ups. Check
water pans frequently and add a sufficient amount
of water when necessary. Hot water vapors rising
from the water pans and through the combustion
chamber helps reduce flare ups. Exercise care
when using your broiler.
TILTING THE GRATE
Raise or lower the grate to the next step by lifting
the grate at the back of the charbroiler where the
grate rests. Use potholders or gloves to reposition.
CAUTION
CHARBROILERS ARE HOT! NEVER
ATTEMPT TO CHANGE THE GRATE
POSITION WHILE FOOD PRODUCTS
ARE COOKING. FLARE UPS CAN
OCCUR UNEXPECTEDLY. TURN OFF
CHARBROILER, AND ALLOW THE
CHARBROILER TO COOL.
CLEANING
Clean regularly. Remove grate section to sink for
washing. Brush out carboned particles. Remove and
wash water pan. Wipe exterior surfaces with
detergent and a cloth. A non-abrasive cleaner can
be used on caked areas.
WATER PAN
The water pan is located at the bottom of the unit,
and is easily removed from the front of the unit.
Water should be added to the water pan and
replaced as necessary. The water pan helps prevent
flare ups and catches grease.
CAUTION
AIR INTAKES IN BOTTOM
Air for combustion enters from the bottom of the
unit. Do not obstruct this area.
