INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Be sure to cap whichever side is not connected.
CAUTION
A shut-off valve in a readily accessible location
must be mounted on the gas supply line before
the unit.
NOTICE
Acceptable Clearances:
(A)
USA and Canada. Due to intense heat generated
by radiation, in USA and Canada these broilers
should be installed in non-combustible locations
only, including the areas above the grate level.

Gas
Connection:
The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed
at the gas inlet of each broiler unless required otherwise
by local codes. Each regulator is adjusted to yield a
manifold pressure of 3.5” water column (9 mbar) for
natural gas or 10” water column (25 m bar) for propane
gas. Units for propane gas are available for use in USA
and Canada only.
Recommended minimum gas supply lines are listed
below:
All XXE Models: 3/4” (19 mm )
For units using propane gas supply In USA and Canada
lines less than 1/2” (12.7 mm) inside diameter should
not be used.
On the XXE series, the gas connection is located on the
right rear of the unit.
When making gas pipe connections, pipe joint
compound resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum
gases should be used.
The broiler and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressure in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kpa).
The broiler must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig
(3.45 kpa).
Burners
Check to see that air mixer caps on the front of all
burners are adjusted and tightened, allowing half the
opening to show.
To install the burners:
(A) Place the front venturi end of the burner into the
valve assembly by fitting the center hole of the air
mixer cap over the brass orifice.
(B) Drop the two ends of the burners over the
burner support pins in the front and back of the
chamber.
Radiants
Mount the “A” shaped radiants over the burners with
each end mounted on special supports on the front and
rear of the chamber. A radiant should be mounted over
eachburner assembly.
Top Grates
Place a grate over each of the radiants. For normal
operation the pointed side of the grate is facing up. For
use with foods that require extra, support, the flat side
may be used.
On XXE models, grates can be placed on three levels;
two positions are built into the rear of the unit; the third
position requires a special adapter which is supplied with
the unit.
The adapter covers only half of the broiler. To cover the
entire unit, optional adapters can be ordered.
