Installation of Hot Top Bricks, Backsplash

7.Check to ensure that all bricks and burners are secure. Carefully replace the griddle top section. When replacing griddle top section, be sure that the griddle capillary and bulb(s) are not in a position to be crushed. Gently pull the griddle capillary towards the front of the range and out from under the griddle area. While two people (one on each side of the griddle) are lowering the griddle into place, the third person must gently feed the griddle thermostat bulb(s) through the “V” shield(s) until completely covered. Also ensure that the capillary is not positioned over the burner flame pattern. Continue to lower the plate into place until it is resting evenly on top of the range.

Installation of Hot Top Bricks

The Restaurant Range hot top sections utilize composite/mortar fire bricks for heat distribution of the burners. Install these bricks before connecting the gas supply line or installing the back riser.
