INSTALLATION
or drops are recommended. A separate gas
shutoff valve must be installed upstream from
the gas pressure regulator adjacent to the
broiler and located in an accessible are.
It is important that adequately sized piping be
run directly to the point of connection at the
broiler with as few elbows and tees as
possible. Consult your local gas company for
proper piping size and gas pressure. Each
broiler has a 3/4” NPT manifold input located
at the lower left rear of the broiler, Figure 4.
On dual broilers, each broiler must have a
separate regulator.
NOTE: Pipe joint compound or thread sealant
that is used should be resistant to action of
liquefied petroleum gases.
Gas Inlet
(Figure 4)
Install the gas pressure regulator with gas
flowing as indicated by the arrow on the
regulator. The arrow must be pointing in
toward the unit. Use pipe compound or thread
sealant and carefully thread regulator to pipe
so that there is no cross threading, etc., which
could cause leakage.
1. Apply wrench only to the flat areas around
the pipe tapping at the end being threaded
to the pipe to avoid possible damage to the
regulator body which could result in
leakage.
2. Connect the gas supply line from the
service gas shutoff valve to the inlet side of
the gas pressure regulator using 3/4” pipe.
Avoid kinks or sharp bends that could
restrict gas flow.
NOTE: If flexible or semi-flexible connectors
are used, an AGA listed flexible connector
with an I.D. equal to 3/4” pipe must be used.
WARNING
DO NOT USE A DOMESTIC TYPE
FLEXIBLE GAS CONNECTOR.
3. Turn gas shutoff valve on and carefully
check for gas leaks immediately. Do this
before attempting to operate the broiler.
WARNING
TEST ALL PIPE JOINTS FOR LEAKS
BEFORE OPERATING BROILER. THIS
INCLUDES ALL GAS CONNECTIONS THAT
MAY
HAVE LOOSENED DURING
SHIPMENT. USE A RICH SOAP SOLUTION
(OR OTHER ACCEPTED LEAK TESTER)
AROUND ALL PIPE JOINTS. DO NOT USE
AN OPEN FLAME. ABSOLUTELY NO
LEAKAGE SHOULD OCCUR, OTHERWISE
THERE IS A DANGER OF FIRE OR
E X P L O S I O N
D E P E N D I N G U P O N
CONDITIONS. DO NOT USE UNIT IF
LEAKAGE IS DETECTED.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all
piping receiving gas should be fully purged to
remove air.

WARNING
DO NOT INSTALL UNIT WITHOUT AN
APPLIANCE REGULATOR.
