PILOT LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
The charbroiler is equipped with standing pilots, and should be lit immediately after the gas is
turned on.
1. Turn off main valve to unit.
2. Turn off all knobs and pilot valves and wait 5 minutes to clear gas.
3. The pilot lights on this broiler have been pre-set at the factory. Turn the adjustable screw
counterclockwise to open and clockwise to close.
4. Turn on main valve and light all pilots.
5. Adjust pilot light fl ames as small as possible, usually about 1/2" high, but high enough to light
burner immediately when burner valve is turned on high.
6. Turn burner knobs to desired setting.
7. To turn burners off, turn knobs off.
BURNER IGNITION AND ADJUSTMENT
1. To ignite burners turn burner valve knob counter clockwise to "ON"position.
2. Slowly decrease openings of air shutters to give a soft blue fl ame having luminous tips, then
slowly increase openings to a point where the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue fl ame
is obtained.
GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WATER PAN
The water pan is located at the bottom of the unit, and is easily removed from the front of the
unit. Water should be added to the water pan to just cover bottom and replaced as necessary.
The water pan helps prevent fl are ups and catches grease.
BURNER OPERATION
Each burner is controlled by an individual high-low, on-off valve. A variety of broiling temperatures
may be obtained by turning the burner valve knob to any position between on and off. It is
possible through this arrangement to have a high heat or searing section, while having a low heat
fi nishing or holding section. For the searing operation, turn the valve counter clockwise for the
section to a position of "ON" or close to it. For holding or fi nishing, turn the valves closer to the
"OFF" position on the dial. You select the heat pattern you like, and set the valves accordingly.
Be sure burners are staying fully lit when set in low positions.
LIGHTING
When broiler is fi rst lit, it will smoke for approximately 20-30 minutes until the preservation
oils and impurities are burned off.
BROILING
Turn valves on and pre-heat unit on "ON" before attempting to broil. You will have to
experiment with the grate settings and the valve settings for your particular food products.
Check water pans frequently and add a suffi cient amount of water when necessary. Hot
water vapors rising from the water pans and through the combustion chamber helps
reduce fl are ups. Exercise care when using your broiler.
TILTING THE GRATE
Raise or lower the grate to the next step by lifting the grate at the back of the charbroiler
where the grate rests. Use potholders or gloves to reposition.
