Installation of Broiler/Griddle Bricks

The Restaurant Range broiler/griddle utilizes ceramic fire bricks for heat radiation of the burners. Install the broiler bricks before connecting the gas supply line.

1.Remove the six 51/4" (133.4 mm) x 21/4" (57 mm) and (6) 51/4" (133.4 mm) x 51/16" (128.6 mm) bricks from the shipping box.

2.Install the six 51/4" (133.4 mm) x 21/4" (57 mm) bricks to the left- and right-hand sides of the burner. To install the bricks, insert them one at a time through the opening in the front of the broiler. Angle the brick sideways so that it will slip between the burner edges. Set the bricks flat in place resting on these edges. Push each brick installed as far to the rear of the burner as possible so that the last brick will install easily (Fig. 3).

3.Install the six 51/4" (133.4 mm) x 51/16" (128.6 mm) bricks to the center burners as described in Step 2.

Installation of Standard Griddle Top Bricks

The griddle top section is extremely heavy. It will require three people to install the griddle and griddle brick — two people to lift the griddle plate and one person to set the bricks and griddle thermostat capillary bulb(s) in place.
