NOTICE
The warranty will be void and the manufacturer relieved of all responsibility if…
(A) Service work is performed by other than a qualified technician, or
(B) Other than genuine Southbend replacement parts are installed.
Before making any adjustment, make sure the appliance is connected to the type of gas for which it is
equipped. That information is on the serial plate, which is located on the inside of the control panel (see
Figure 1 on page 3).
ADJUSTMENT OF MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE
A pressure regulator is connected to the appliance’s gas connection, outside the rear left corner of the
appliance. The pressure regulator is factory set at 4" W.C. for natural gas and 10" W.C. for propane. To
check the manifold pressure, do the following:
1. Turn all burner valves to “OFF” position.
2. Turn main gas valve to entire appliance off.
3. Remove front panel and locate 1/8" plug in manifold. (Note that 60" and 72" griddle models have two
burner compartments, and so have two manifolds.)
4. Remove the plug and install a fitting appropriate to connect a manometer.
5. Turn on main gas to appliance and light pilots.
6. Turn all burners to full “ON” position and read manometer.
7. If manometer does not read 4" W.C. for natural gas (or 10" W.C. for propane gas), check the incoming
gas line for proper pressure. The proper gas line pressure is 5-7" W.C. for natural gas and 11-14" W.C.
for propane.
8. Remove manometer fitting and replace plug in manifold.
9. Replace front panel.
10. Turn on main gas to appliance and light pilots.
