can be removed for attaching a pressure gauge.
CONNECTING GAS SUPPLY LINE
The gas inlet of the griddle is sealed at the factory to prevent entry of dirt. Do not remove this
seal until the actual connection is made to the gas supply line.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Soap and water solution or other material acceptable for the purpose shall be used in locating
gas leakage. Matches, candle fl ame, or other sources of ignition shall not be used for this
purpose. Check entire piping system for leaks.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
When griddle is fi rst lit, it will smoke until the preservation oils and impurities are burned off.
1. Turn off main valve to unit and wait 5 minutes to clear gas.
2. Turn off all knobs and pilot valves.

5. To turn burners off, turn knobs off.
NOTE: The griddles are equipped with standing pilots and should be lit immediately
after the gas is turned on.
Pilot fl ames can be lit and observed through the front panel view ports. However, best access
for lighting the pilot is from the bottom of the unit just behind the center wall.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS (TCHSD and TSPD SERIES)

burner valve is turned on high.
ADJUSTING SAFETY PILOTS (SERIES TCHSD and TSPD ONLY)
A manual pilot valve is provided on the left side of the control to adjust the pilot fl ame. Adjust
the pilot fl ame so that it is approximately 3/8 to 1/2" tall and a uniform cone shape.
BURNER ADJUSTMENT (MODELS MD and MDS ONLY)
1. Remove the front panel.
2. Turn burner valve knob to "HI" position.
