GAS CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action
of propane gases.
Location of the gas inlet is at the rear of the griddle. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve must be
installed in the gas line ahead of the griddle.
Connect gas supply. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions.
Griddles are equipped with fixed burner orifices for use with natural or propane gas and no adjustment
is necessary.
Natural gas pressure regulators are preset for 4" W.C. (Water Column) supply; propane gas pressure
regulators are preset for 10" W.C. supply. No further adjustment should be required.
WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS.
USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
When gas supply pressure exceeds
1
/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the griddle and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When gas supply pressure is
1
/2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the griddle should be isolated from the gas
supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
DO NOT obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue located on the rear of the griddle. It is
recommended that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation
system installed by qualified personnel.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum clearance of 18"
must be maintained.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the standard
for "Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment," NFPA No. 96 (latest edition), available from the
National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE
APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE AND/OR OTHER LOCAL
ELECTRICAL CODES.
