INTRODUCTION
General Information
1. Damage check: Check carton or crate for possible
damage incurred in shipping. After carefully uncrating,
check for “concealed” damage. Report any damage
immediately to your carrier.
2. The correct type of gas for which the unit was
manufactured is noted on the rating plate, and only this
type of gas must be used.
3. The gas pressure must be checked when the unit is
installed to ensure that the operating gas pressure is the
same as that specified on the rating plate. If necessary,
pressure adjustments may be made at the pressure
regulator, supplied on each appliance.
4. Have a qualified gas technician check the gas pressure
to make certain that the existing gas facilities, (meter,
piping, etc.), will deliver the volume, (BTU’s), of gas
required for proper operation with no more than 0.50”
water column pressure drop. When checking pressure, be
sure that all the equipment on the same gas line is turned
to the “ON” position.
5. Make certain that new piping, joints and connections
have been made in a clean manner, and have been
purged, so that the piping compound, chips, etc., will
not clog pilots, valves, and/or controls. Use pipe joint
sealant that is approved for use with natural and liquefied
petroleum gases.
6. WARNING: Check gas connections for leaks using soap
solutions or similar mean. DO NOT CHECK WITH AN OPEN
FLAME.
Rating Plate
All burner input ratings are shown on the rating plate of each
unit which can be located as follows:
Ranges
– Remove lower front panel, (located on main
bottom).
Broilers
– Remove upper front panel, (located on the top left
corner).
Fryers
- Open fryer door, (located on inside of fryer door.)
When corresponding with the factory or your local
authorized service agency regarding service or parts, be sure
to refer to the particular unit by the correct model number
(including prefix and suffix letters and numbers) and the
serial or code number. The rating plate affixed to the unit
contains this information.
INSTALLATION
Gas Supply
Before assembly and connection, check gas supply.
A. The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped
on the rating plate, (refer to “Rating Plate “above).
Connect a unit stamped “NAT” only to natural gas, and a
unit stamped “PRO” only to propane.
B. In a new installation, have the gas authorities check
meter size and piping to ensure that the gas supply will
deliver sufficient pressure to operate the unit properly.
C. When adding or replacing equipment, have gas
authorities check gas pressure to ensure that the existing
meter and piping will supply fuel to the appliance with
no more than 1/2 “ water column pressure drop during
operating.
D. Before turning on the main gas supply, check the unit to
be certain that all the valves are in the “OFF” position.
E. When checking gas pressure, be sure that all other
equipment on the same gas line is turned “ON.” A preset
gas pressure regulator is supplied with GARLAND
Restaurant Series Equipment. It may be necessary to
adjust the regulator to deliver fuel at the pressure shown
on the rating plate.
