LEVELING THE CHARBROILER
Once gas connections have been made, place a spirit level on top of the charbroiler. Adjust the legs
to make sure that the charbroiler is level front to back and side to side in the final installed position.
No adjustment is required for modular broilers.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
The charbroiler must be located under a hood that has an adequate connection to an exhaust duct. The
hood must extend 6" (152 mm) beyond charbroiler sides.
Adequate ventilation must be provided and must comply with NFPA Standard #96 (latest edition) and
with local codes.
Clearance above the charbroiler should be adequate for products of combustion to be removed
efficiently. An 18" (457 mm) minimum clearance should be maintained between the flue vent and the
filters of the hood venting system.
Adequate air should be provided in the kitchen to replace air taken out by the ventilating system. This
will prevent charbroiler function from being affected by a reduced atmospheric pressure.
CLEAN BEFORE FIRST USE
Using a noncorrosive, grease-dissolving cleaner, clean the protective metal oils from all surface parts.
Follow the directions of the cleaner manufacturer. Rinse all parts thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft
clean cloth. Reseason cast-iron parts immediately to prevent rusting.
Seasoning
Lightly season the top grates and the griddle and the backsplash, if present, with a thin layer of cooking
oil. This should also be done after every cleaning.
