GENERAL INSTALLATION DATA (continued)
PLACING RADIANTS
After the unit is unpacked and installed, place 1 radiant above each burner. Install each
radiant on 2 slots of the rear wall and on the 2 pins of the front wall of the liner weld
assembly. Refer to the exploded view in this manual for orientation of the radiants.
GAS PIPING
Gas piping shall be of such size and so installed as to provide a supply of gas sufficient
to meet the full gas input of the appliance. If the appliance is to be connected to existing
piping, it shall be checked to determine if it has adequate capacity. Joint compound shall
be used sparingly and only on the male threads of the pipe joints. Such compounds shall
be resistant to the action of L.P. gases. WARNING: Any loose dirt or metal particles which
are allowed to enter the gas lines on this appliance will damage the valve and affect its
operation. When installing this appliance, all pipe and fittings must be free from all internal
loose dirt..
MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVE
A manual shut off valve should be
installed upstream from the manifold
and within six feet of the charbroiler.
CONNECTING GAS SUPPLY LINE
The gas inlet of the charbroiler is
sealed at the factory to prevent entry
of dirt. Do not remove this seal until
the actual connection is made to the
gas supply line.
PROPANE GAS - CONVERSION
This charbroiler is equipped with fixed
orifice hoods and is shipped from the
factory for use with natural gas. To
convert to propane gas, install the burner orifice hoods, located in the water pan, as follows:
Remove grates, radiants and burners.
Remove the burner orifice hoods and install the orifice hoods supplied.
Replace the burners, radiants, and grates.
Set manifold pressure to (10) inch water column. A 1/8" pipe plug on the burner manifold can
be removed for attaching a pressure gauge. Remove the slotted, or hex-threaded plug from
the pressure regulator. Invert the plug and re-install. The letters "LP" should now be visible
on the plug. The regulator is now set for 10" (25.4 cm) water column. Attach the conversion
label, supplied with the unit, close to the nameplate.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Check entire piping system for leaks. Soap and water solution or other material acceptable
for the purpose, shall be used in locating gas leakage.
Matches, candle flame or other sources of ignition shall not be used for
locating gas leaks.
