GAS CONNECTIONS

CAUTION: All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of propane gases.

Pipe gas supply to the griddle. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt, and piping compound.

Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the griddle.

All griddles are equipped with fixed orifices for use with natural or propane gas and no adjustment is necessary.

Griddles for operation on natural or propane gas are also equipped with a factory preset pressure regulator with an outlet pressure of 41/2" Water Column for natural gas supply, and 10" Water Column for propane gas supply. No further adjustment should be required.

WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS. USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.

TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM.

When test pressures exceed 1/2 psig (3.45 k Pa), the griddle and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.

When test pressures are 1/2 psig (3.45 k Pa) or less, the griddle must be isolated from the gas supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.

FLUE CONNECTIONS

Ventilation requirements will vary with each installation. Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the standard for “Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment,” NFPA No. 96 (latest edition).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
