PILOT INITIAL ADJUSTMENT
Each burner has a separate pilot burner. The
pilot flame is adjusted through access holes in
the valve control panel, Figure 7. Pilot access
is through the broiler opening.
1. Turn the main gas shut off valve to the ON
position.
2. Light each pilot.
3. Ensure that each pilot burner has a steady
blue flame, Figure 7, per Table C on PAGE
5.
4. The pilot flame should envelop the tip of the
thermocouple. The pilot flame can be
viewed up through the opening of the broiler
compartment.

Replace the control valve panel and the main
control valve handles.
BURNER ADJUSTMENT
The efficiency of the broiler depends on a
delicate balance between the supply of air and
the volume of gas at each main burner
resulting in complete combustion. Whenever
this balance is disturbed, poor operating
characteristics occur. An air shutter, Figure 8,
on the front of each main burner controls the
air supply.
NOTE: Pilots should be lit, SEE PAGE 12,
before adjusting the main burners.
1. Lift off the venturi cover to access the air
shutter for each main burner.
2. Turn on the main burner control valve for
the main burner to be adjusted by rotating
the main burner control valve fully counter-
clockwise to the ―O‖ position.
3. Increase the air shutter openings until the
flame on the burner begins to ―lift‖. Then
close the shutter until flame no longer
floats, and lock in place. A yellow streaming
flame indicates insufficient air. Correct this
condition by increasing air shutter opening.
The correct setting is shown on Table C on
PAGE 5.

4. After all main burners are properly adjusted,
reinstall the venturi cover.
5. Turn all main burner control valves fully
clockwise to the ―O‖ position to turn the
main burner off.
