INTRODUCTION
Garland manufactures the GX Series Char-Broilers with two
different types of radiants, with widths ranging from 24
”
to
five feet. While service and customer operation may vary
from model to model, installation is similar throughout the
line.
All units are shipped completely assembled, with the loose
parts secured in place with masking tape or tie cords, and the
pressure regulators (and ceramic coals, if applicable) packed
inside the unit. All units are adjusted, tested, and inspected
at the factory prior to shipment.
IMPORTANT: After uncrating, immediately check the
equipment for visible signs of shipping damage. If such
damage has occurred, do not refuse shipment, but contact
the shipper and file the appropriate freight claims.
Rating Plate
The rating plate is attached to the Char-broiler’s body on the
right hand side.
Information on this plate includes the model and serial
numbers… when communicating with the factory about a
unit or requesting special parts or information, this data is
essential for proper identification. Other information on this
plate is the BTU/hr input to the burners, outlet gas pressure
in inches WC, and whether orificed for natural or propane
gas.
In the event you have any questions concerning the
installation, use, care or service of the product, write or call
our Product Service Department.
WARNING: All Garland Char-Broilers must be connected only
to the type of gas identified on the rating plate!
INSTALLATION
General Installation
IMPORTANT: Safe and satisfactory operation of your
equipment depends, to a great extent, on its proper
installation. Installation must conform to local codes or, in
the absence of local codes with the National Fuel Code, ANSI
Z223.1 Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA –B149.1,
or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2, as
applicable.
1. Installation of the equipment should be made by a
licensed plumber.
2. A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed in the gas
supply line ahead of the appliance for safety and for ease
of future service.
3. A gas pressure regulator must be installed at the
appliance prior to connecting the equipment to the gas
line. Failure to install a regulator will void the equipment
warranty.
