OPERATION Continued
3. With a lighted taper, light pilot.
4. Replace briquettes and grid rack sections remove in step 2
Shut Down Instructions
1. Turn all gas valves off.
2. Only if the unit is to be shut down for a long period of
time the in-line service valve should be turned to the off
position, located up stream from the pressure regulator.
(This valve is not factory supplied).
Pilot burner adjustments
1. The pilot adjusting valves are located on the manifold.
2. With the valve panel in place, the pilot can be adjusted
with a long thin bladed screw driver to obtain a 1-5/8”
(41mm) long flame. (This adjustment can be made
through the small hole located directly on the valve
panel).
Burner Adjustment
1. Before making any adjustment, turn all gas valves
to “OFF”. Remove the burner tie wires, if not already
removed. Be sure all piping is gas tight and that air is
purged from lines.
2. All units are shipped from the Factory with burner ratings
set for the type of gas and the gas pressure shown on
the data plate. The only adjustment necessary is for that
governing air.
Air Adjustment
1. If necessary, the air is adjusted by rotating the air shutter
on burner. The burner must have enough air that the tips
of the flames are not yellow, but not so much air that the
flames will lift off the burner ports. Securely tighten air
shutter screw so air shutter cannot be moved. Ceramic
briquette and steel rods should be in position when
checking air adjustment.
IMPORTANT: all gas burners and pilots need sufficient air
to operate and large objects should not be placed in front
of this or any other gas operated equipment, which would
obstruct the make up air through the front which is needed
to support proper combustion.
FOR YOUR SAFETY Keep the broiler area free and clear from
combustibles such as paper, rags, cardboard, etc.
High/Low Valves
Char-Broilers are equipped with Hi/Low valves. Your
cooking preference may require a low flame adjustment.
To adjust, proceed as follows:
1. Burner must be cold.
2. Be sure pilot flames are lit and adjusted.
3. Turn dial to “LOW” position, then remove dial.
4. With a screw driver, turn the small adjusting screw inside
the valve stem and adjust to obtain the “LOW” flame
desired, maintaining a stable blue flame covering the
entire burner (minimum 3/6” [5mm] long flame).
5. Replace the dial and turn to “OFF” position.
Shut Down Instructions
1. Turn gas burner valves off.
2. Pilot lights will be turned off by closing the main gas
valve (supplied by others ) to unit.
