7. OPERATION, LIGHTING and CLEANING
•
Assemble unit per installation and assembly instructions.
•
Fill water tubs to within ½” of top edges (this will control grease flare-ups, provide for ease of cleaning
and keep cooked foods moist). Re-fill tubs with water when they evaporate to within ½” of the bottom
of the tubs. Failure to keep water in the water tubs will lead to grease fires and will void the warranty.
Lighting Instructions
A. Check that the side tank racks are securely mounted on the unit.
B. Open the cooking hood, if so equipped. Turn all the burner knobs and red runner tube knobs clockwise
to the ‘off’ position, and slowly open the gas tank valves.
C. Push & turn the runner tube knob(s) fully counter-clockwise to the ‘on’ position. Insert a lit match with
the matchstick holder or a gas lighter flame through the oblong hole in the front panel.
D. Check that the entire runner tube is lit by looking through the sight hole(s) located between the end
burner knobs on the front panel. If the runner 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.
E. After lighting the runner tube(s), open the desired burner valves and observe that the burners light
completely from the runner tubes(s).
Warning: If the burners or runner tube(s) fail to light or remain lit, shut off and disconnect the gas supply
tank(s) and discontinue use of the unit. Call for service to correct the problem.
NOTE:
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 steps A through E of
the lighting instructions. The appliance should now function normally. Failure to follow these guidelines may
cause the excess flow valve to restrict gas flow.
Shutdown Instructions
•
To shut down the unit, turn all burner and runner tube knobs clockwise to the ‘off’ position. Close gas
tank valve(s), disconnect propane tank(s) and leave them outdoors.
