LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Lighting Instructions:
Fill water pans to within 1/2” of top edges (this will
control grease flare-ups, provide for ease of cleaning
and keep cooked food moist). Re-fill pans with water
when they evaporate to within 1/2” of the bottom of the
pans. Failure to keep water in the water pans could lead
to grease fires and will void the warranty.
1. Check that the tank mounting brackets are
securely mounted on the unit.
2. Open the roll-up hood if so equipped. Turn all the
burner knobs and carryover tube knobs to the OFF
position and slowly open the gas tank valves.
3. Turn the carryover tube knob on one side
fully counter-clockwise to the ON position.
Insert a lit, extra-long match or a gas lighter
flame though the hole on the same side in the
front panel. For 60” broilers repeat the same
procedure for the other side.
4. Check that the entire crossover tube is lit by
looking through the lighter hole(s) located on the
front panel. If the carryover tube(s) will not light
or stay lit, shut off the gas supply and do not use
the unit. Wait 5 minutes before attempting to re-
light the unit. (See Figure “B”)
5. After lighting the crossover tube(s), open the
desired burner valves and observe that the burners
light completely from the crossover tube(s).
If the tank valves are not opened very slowly, an
excess flow valve in the tank connector fitting
(a safety feature) may restrict the flow of gas
to the unit resulting in little or no flame at the
burners. Should this happen, follow the shutdown
instructions and be sure to shut off tanks and
remove and re-attach the tank connectors as
instructed. This is necessary to re-set a closed
excess flow valve. Repeat all steps of the lighting
instructions. The appliance should now function
normally.
NOTICE
Shutdown Instructions
To shut down the unit, turn all burners and carryover
tube knobs clockwise to the OFF position. Close gas
tank valve(s), disconnect propane tank(s) and leave
them outdoors.
