WARNING:
FIRE HAzARD
This griddle is supplied with a gas pressure
regulator.
Failure to properly install the
supplied regulator will result in
an extremely hazardous
condition.
Flow arrow stamped on body of
regulator must point toward the
griddle.
Regulator adjusting screw and
vent hole must point UP.
INSTALLING THE GRIDDLE
Refer to the nameplate. Verify the fuel type and pressure, which must
match the nameplate specications. Connecting the griddle to the
wrong fuel type and/or pressure will compromise the safety and/or
performance of the appliance.
The griddle must be placed in its nal operational position and
leveled front-to-back and side-to-side, with a spirit level, prior to
beginning the gas piping installation. Re-check the level of the unit
at the conclusion of the gas piping installation.
Each gas griddle is supplied with a separate gas pressure regulator.
The supplied regulator must be used, and must be installed on the
manifold pipe protruding from the rear of the griddle. Ensure that the
regulator is installed such that the ow arrow stamped on the body of
the regulator points toward the griddle. Failure to properly install the
supplied regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.
A moisture trap (drip leg) consisting of a tee, 4” nipple pointing down,
and cap must be installed upstream of the gas pressure regulator.
A manual gas shut-off valve may be required by local codes and is,
in any case, strongly recommended. The shut-off valve must be
installed between the gas supply piping and the gas pressure
regulator.

Shut-off valves, moisture trap and all associated piping must be
supplied by the gas piping installer.
It is the responsibility of the gas piping installer to
IMPORTANT:
Verify fuel gas type. If the
available fuel does not match
the nameplate specication,
exchange the griddle for the
correct type. DO NOT attempt
to modify a unit in the eld to
accept a different fuel.
IMPORTANT:
Avoid damage to the regulator:
if the gas supply piping system
is pressure tested at pressures
exceeding 1/2 psig (3.45kPa)
, the griddle must be isolated
or disconnected from the gas
piping system for the duration
of the test.

INSTALLATION
GAS PIPE PRESSURE TESTING
The main piping system must be capable of supplying the griddle with
sufcient volume/ow of fuel to satisfy the maximum operational input
requirements.
Make sure the supply piping system has been pressure tested before
the regulator and griddle are connected. If the system must be
re-tested, be sure the regulator is isolated by a manual shut-off valve,
in order to prevent damage to the regulator and gas griddle valves.
Piping and connections should be leak tested using a water/soap
solution. DO NOT USE FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
Equipment gas pressure (the pressure downstream of the pressure
regulator) may be tested by adapting a water column gauge to the
plugged ports on the main gas manifold. The pressure regulator
supplied with the Gas Griddle is factory set for a nominal gas pressure
of 5” w.c.
Be sure to remove any adapters, and to re-plug and leak check the
port before returning the griddle to service. Leak testing should be
performed using a water/soap solution. DO NOT USE FLAME TO
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
GAS SUPPLY FLOW VOLUME TESTING REQUIREMENTS
While testing for adequate gas pressure, be sure all other gas
appliances that utilize the same source piping are in operation with
burners ON in order to ensure accurate operational conditions.
If ow volume in the system piping is marginal, and should other
appliances on that system not be consuming gas while testing for
pressure, the test results may be inaccurate.
IMPORTANT:
PRESSURE TESTING MUST
BE PERFORMED BY A
QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN
ONLY.
NOTE: The maximum inlet
pressure from the supply
piping must not exceed ½ p.s.i
(14” W.C.) Pressure above this
limit will damage the regulator
and gas valves.
Port for measuring outlet
gas pressure is located on
the manifold. Remove the
grease drawer to gain access.
Remove the allen head plug
sealing the test port, then
connect the hose of a water
column gauge.
Be sure to reinstall the allen
head plug at the conclusion of
testing.
