Installation, Operation and Care of

GDC SERIES GAS DUPLEX COOKERS

KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

GENERAL

The GDC Series Gas Duplex Cookers combine a high efficiency gas griddle with adjustable-height, thermostat-controlled electric platens to provide fast production of grilled foods. Vulcan Duplex Cookers are produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation, usage and maintenance will result in many years of satisfactory performance.

It is suggested that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided.

INSTALLATION

Before installing, verify that the type of gas (natural or propane), the elevation, and the electrical service agree with the specifications on the rating plate, located on the left side panel.

UNPACKING

This cooker was carefully inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment. Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the cooker is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

CAUTION: Lower all platens before attempting to move this cooker.

LOCATION

The installation location must be kept free and clear of combustibles. Clearances from combustible and non-combustible construction must be a minimum of 7 inches from the sides and 2 inches from the back. A minimum front clearance of 32 inches is required for service and operation.

Sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the amount of air removed by any ventilating system and for combustion of the gas burners. Do not permit fans to blow directly on the cooker. Avoid open windows at the sides or back. Avoid wall-type fans which create air cross currents within the room. Do not obstruct the air flow into and around the cooker. Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct (when so equipped). It is recommended that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a suitable and properly installed ventilation system.
