GAS PIPING
Gas piping shall be of such size and so installed as
to provide a supply of gas suffi cient to meet the full
gas input of the appliance. If the appliance is to be
connected to existing piping, it shall be checked to
determine if it has adequate capacity. Joint compound
shall be used sparingly and only on the male threads
of the pipe joints. Such compounds shall be resistant
to the action of L.P. gases. WARNING: Any loose dirt
or metal particles which are allowed to enter the gas
lines on this appliance will damage the valve and affect
its operation. When installing this appliance, all pipe
and fi ttings must be free from all internal loose dirt.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
A convertible pressure regulator is provided with each
griddle. It should be connected to the inlet pipe at the
rear of the unit. The gas supply is then connected to it.
The supply pressure to the regulator is not to exceed
1/2 psig. This unit is shipped for use with propane
gas with 10" water column manifold pressure.
MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVE
A manual shut off valve should be installed upstream
from the manifold and within six feet of the griddle.
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.
NATURAL GAS - CONVERSION
This griddle is equipped with fi xed orifi ce hoods and is
shipped from the factory for use with propane gas. To
convert to natural gas install the orifi ce hoods located
behind the front panel as follows:
1. Remove the front panel by removing the screws
located on the front and bottom.
2. Remove the burner mounting screws in the center
of the combustion chamber access covers.
3. Slide the burners back off the orifi ce hoods.
4. Remove the propane gas orifi ce hoods and install
the natural orifi ce hoods.
5. Slide the burners back over the orifi ce hoods and
reinstall the burner mounting screws.
6. Reinstall the front panel.
7. Set the pressure regulator to 5" (12.7cm) or 4"
(10.2cm) water column by removing the slotted
or hex cap from the center of the regulator. Invert
the plug and reinstall. The letters "NAT" will now
be visible on the plug. Reinstall the cap. An 1/8"
pipe plug is located on the manifold for attaching
a pressure gauge.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Check entire piping system for 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 locating gas
leaks.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
When the griddle is fi rst lit, it will smoke until the
preservative oils and impurities are burned off. The
griddles are equipped with standing pilots and should
be lit immediately after the gas is turned on.
