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 hotplate be connected to
supply pressure greater than ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or 14” W.C.
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 hotplate and its parts are hot. Use care when op erating,
cleaning or servicing the hotplate.
CONTROLS
There is one pilot for every two burners. The hotplate is equipped with standing,
unmonitored pilots. Gas will flow from the pilots as soon as the main gas supply to the
unit is turned on. See pilot lighting procedure below.
Each burner is independently controlled by an infinite heat control valve. Once the pilots
are lit, turning the control knob to the ON position will light each burner. The burners will
be in the full ON position when the control knobs are turned all the way to the left. The
burners will be in the full OFF position when the control knobs are turned all the way to
the right.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. See Fig 5. Turn main gas shut-off valve
and all burner control knobs to the OFF
position and wait 5 minutes to allow
any accumulated gas to escape.
2. Remove grates.
3. Turn main gas shut-off valve ON.
Light the pilots. Adjust the pilot valve
screw(See Fig.6) until the pilot flame
has a slight yellow tip.
4. To light burners, turn individual burner
valves to the ON position.
5. If burners fail to light, turn all valves
and the main gas shut-off to the OFF
position and contact an authorized
service contractor.
