GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION
Gas regulator pressure is preset at 5” Water Column (W.C.) for natural gas, and 10” W.C.
for propane gas. Minor adjustments may be required based on site specific gas pressure.
Install the regulator as close to the cheesemelter on the gas supply line as possible.
Make sure that the arrow on the underside of the regulator is oriented in the direction of
gas flow to the cheesemelter (Fig. 2) and the regulator is positioned with the vent plug
and adjustment screw upright (Fig. 3).

The minimum supply pressure (upstream of the regulator) should be 7-9” W.C. for natural
gas and 11-12” W.C. for propane gas. At no time should the cheesemelter be connected
to supply pressure greater than ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or 14” W.C.
Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to
the
action of propane gases.
Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks.
Use soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame.
OPERATION
The cheesemelter and its parts are hot. Use care when operating,
cleaning or servicing the cheesemelter
