GRIDDLES MOUNTED ON STANDS WITH CASTERS
Griddles mounted on stands with casters must use a
flexible connector (not supplied) that complies with the
Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances
ANSI Z21.69•CSA6.16, and a quick-disconnect device
that complies with Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.3•CSA6.9. In
addition, adequate means must be provided to limit
movement of the appliance without depending on the
connector and the quick-disconnect device (or its
associated piping) to limit appliance movement. Attach
the restraining device at the rear of the griddle as
shown in Fig. 3.
Fig. 3.
If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, turn off the gas supply before
disconnecting. Reconnect the restraint prior to turning the gas supply on and returning
the griddle to its installation position.
Casters are only supplied on a griddle stand. If the griddle is moved for any reason the
griddle should be re-leveled (see LEVELING in this manual).
FLUE CONNECTIONS
DO NOT
obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue, located at the rear of the griddle. It
is recommended that flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a
ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum
clearance of 18” must be maintained.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from
the standard for “Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest edition),
available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA
02269.
ADJUSTMENTS
LEVELING
The griddle must be level (side-to-side and front-to-back) during operation to ensure
proper performance. Improper leveling can result in uneven temperature distribution, cold
spots, and possibly damage electrical components.
1. Place a level on the griddle.
2. Adjust legs by turning the bullet feet at the bottom of each leg. Using pliers or a
crescent wrench, turn the feet counter-clockwise to increase height, and clockwise to
decrease height until leveling is achieved. Do not extend the legs more than 1-¾”.
PILOT ADJUSTMENT
Remove front panel. Using a flathead screwdriver, turn the slotted hex-head pilot
adjustment screw clockwise to decrease the flame, and counterclockwise to increase the
flame. Pilot adjustments should only be performed by qualified Service Personnel.
