INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION:

Remove unit from container and immediately inspect it for damage due to exceptionally rough handling during shipping.

NOTE: Your unit was thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory and the carrier accepted and signed for it. File any claims for shipping damage or irregularities directly with the carrier, not with the company.

Accessories shipped with each unit include:

1 - pressure regulator

1 - cast iron top grate

1 - drip pan

4 - 2 1/2 adjustable legs

4 - 4" stainless steel adjustable legs are available as optional accessories.

CAUTION:

Examine the gas specification label attached to the right side of the unit to be certain that the type of gas for which the unit is equipped is the same as the supply available.

MOUNTING OF LEGS:

To install legs, tilt unit back and screw in two front legs. Mount rear legs by tilting unit forward.

INSTALLATION:

This installation must be installed without alteration and in accordance with these printed instructions and applicable codes, and the National Fuel Gas Code, latest edition.

CAUTION:

The unit should not be operated without first installing the legs, and they should NOT BE REMOVED under any circumstances. Select a location and level unit by turning the leg adjustment screws. To achieve the most satisfactory operational conditions, the unit should be placed under an adequate hood or canopy. The unit comes equipped with separate 3/4" NPT Pressure Regulator (4" W.C. for Natural Gas and 10" W.C. for

Propane Gas). The regulator supplied must be installed directly to the manifold pipe protruding from the rear of the unit.

Insure that the regulator is installed so that the direction of the gas flow matches the direction of the arrow on the regulator body.

A manual gas shut off valve should be installed between the gas supply line and the regulator inlet. The size of the supply pipe to the unit is very important for peak performance. Check with your local gas company as to the proper pipe size. Use a pipe compound resistant to LP. gases on all threaded joints. Check for gas leaks with soap solution before attempting to light the unit.

Remove the plastic tie from the burner and inspect the burner to see that it is properly seated on the supporting bracket, and also properly located on the burner orifices. The unit is now ready for lighting.

LIGHTING AND OPERATION:

These instructions are to be followed for installation only. For normal operation, follow the simple instructions on the label attached to the right side of the unit.

1. Make sure burner valves are turned to "OFF" or horizontal position.

2. Turn on main gas supply valve to unit.

3. Remove top grate and locate pilot adjustment valve on gas manifold pipe. Open valve by turning adjusting screw counter-clockwise and light pilot. Turn adjusting screw to obtain a

3/4" flame. Replace top grate

Note: When the unit is being lit for the first time it may take a little longer to light the pilot until the air is purged out of the system.

4 .

Turn burner valves counter-clockwise to "ON" position to ignite burners.

5. To turn unit off, turn burner valves clockwise to "OFF" position.

6. To re-light unit, shut off all gas and wait five (5) minutes before re-lighting pilot.

7. To completely shut down unit, turn burner valves to "OFF' position and close main gas valve.

3

WARNING: If the pilot should become extinguished, turn off the main gas supply and vent the interior of the unit for five (5) minutes before attempting to re-light.

MAINTENANCE:

Very little maintenance is required for this unit. Keep all exterior surfaces free of splashed grease and other dirt by washing regularly with hot water and soap. Rinse and wipe dry, then polish with a soft cloth.

OUTSIDE SERVICE:

Should you require help contact the factory, your factory representative, or your local service company.

FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONS ONLY

When servicing of unit is required, contact a qualified service agency.

ADJUSTMENTS:

1. To adjust burner flame: remove top grate, loosen slotted screw on top of burner venturi and rotate air shutter slowly until flame with soft blue inner cone is obtained. Replace top grate.

2. To adjust pilot flame: remove top grate and locate pilot light adjustment valve on gas manifold pipe and turn adjusting screw to obtain a 3/4" flame. Replace top grate.

MAINTENANCE:

The main burner can be removed from the top of the unit when the top grate is removed. The burner should be cleaned both inside the venturi portion and on the outside using a soft bristle brush. The burner caps should also be removed and the caps and their seatings cleaned with the brush. The pilot should be cleaned to ensure proper ignition. The main burner and top grate must be replaced into the same position as prior to removal. Once a year a qualified service agency should be contacted to inspect the appliance for safe and proper operation.
