FLUE CONNECTIONS
Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue, located at the rear of the griddle. It is recommended that flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum clearance of 18” must be maintained.
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), available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
GAS CONNECTIONS
Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of propane gases.
Use a ¾” NPT gas supply line for the griddle inlet, located at the rear of the griddle. All of flexible and
Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks. Use soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame.
After checking for leaks all lines receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
When the gas supply pressure exceeds ½ psig (3.45 kPa), the griddle and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When the gas supply pressure is ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the griddle should be isolated from the gas supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION
This griddle is supplied with a convertible gas pressure regulator preset at 4” Water Column (W.C.) for natural gas. No further adjustment should be required. Install the regulator as close to the griddle on the gas supply line as possible. Make sure that the arrow on the underside of the regulator is oriented in the direction of gas flow to the griddle (Fig. 2 on next page) and the regulator is positioned with the vent plug and conversion plug cover upright (Fig. 3 on next page).
