Follow this procedure to check proper operation of the Pitco
WARNING
Ensure that tank is filled to the level line with oil before turning the
appliance on. Turning the appliance on with an empty or partially filled tank
could cause an unsafe condition, which could lead to damage to the
appliance, property damage or personal injury.
a.Reconnect the power supply and turn on the gas supply to the appliance.
b.Energize the unit and check the gas delivery system and Pitco
c.If you detect bubbles at any gas joint, turn the appliance off, disconnect the power supply and turn off the gas supply immediately. Retighten any joints that show signs of leaking and repeat steps a, b and c until no leakage is detected. If you do not detect any leaks, proceed to step d.
d.Turn appliance on and observe its behavior. The appliance will execute a Cleaning Cycle every time it is energized from on “OFF” state, so you may turn the appliance off and then on again to verify proper execution of the Cleaning Cycle. Refer to the below table to verify proper Cleaning Cycle execution

Follow this procedure to adjust and verify proper operation of an appliance using flue baffles (McDonald’s models MG2 and MG2T):
WARNING
If the appliance you are upgrading is equipped with flue baffles, it may be necessary to adjust the baffle’s opening to restore proper operation of the appliance.
If the model you are upgrading is an MG2 or MG2T, it may be necessary to adjust the flue baffle opening to restore proper operation of the appliance’s combustion system. Flue baffles are used when the appliance is direct coupled to an exhaust hood, the flue baffle balances the exhaust draw on the combustion system.
When operating properly, the burners should exhibit light blue flame and generate a mild, consistent roar. It is possible to view the burner flame on the center two burners by peeking sideways into the opening on the air collars near the pilot. If, during operation the burner flames appear to be lifting or pulsing, the draw of the hood may be too powerful and the baffle will need to be adjusted to a more restrictive setting. Lifting or pulsing burners can usually be heard when the
