CASTER EQUIPPED HOT PLATES

Hot plates mounted on casters must use a flexible connector (not supplied by Vulcan) that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69•CSA 6.16 and a quick- disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41•CSA 6.9.

If the hot plate is installed on casters and is moved for any reason, it is recommended that the hot plate be re-leveled front to back and side to side.
