The charbroiler

and its parts are hot. Use care

when operating, cleaning or

servicing the charbroiler.

Grate – The grates can be utilized

flat or sloped for operational

flexibility.

Deflector Tray – The deflector tray

is the removable pan with holes in

it. The deflector tray deflects heat

back toward the cooking surface

while allowing debris to pass

through the holes and into the

crumb tray below. The deflector

tray should always be in place

above the crumb tray when

operating.

Never cover the

deflector tray holes with foil or

allow the deflector tray holes to

become blocked with debris. This

will cause a buildup of heat that

can potentially damage and warp

components of the charbroiler.

Crumb tray – The crumb tray is the

removable pan without holes in it.

The crumb tray catches any debris

that passes thru the deflector tray

and should always be installed

beneath the deflector tray. (Fig. 1).

Supercharger Burner Divider -

These act as dividers between

cooking zones to offer flexibility in

cooking and help direct heat

upwards to provide for a even

heating pattern. You may remove

some or all of the supercharger

burner dividers at your discretion if

you find your production method

works better without them. The

super charger burner dividers are

installed by inserting the hooks

thru corresponding slots at the

front (Fig. 2) and the back rests in

the super charger guide to the

rear. (Fig. 3).

- 6 -

Radiant – The charbroiler must

never be operated without the

radiants in place. They protect the

burner from food drippings and

heat up to provide an even heating

pattern. The radiants are installed

by inserting the tab thru the

corresponding slot in the heat

shield to the front (Fig. 4-A) and

the back of the radiants set on the

radiant rest to the rear (Fig. 5-A).

Burner – The burner shutter

should engage the orifice to the

front (Fig. 6) and rest in the

burner slot to the rear of the unit.

Proper burner shutter adjustment

is important for optimal charbroiler

performance. The burner shutters

should only be adjusted with all

radiants in place. The shutter will

typically be about 50% open for

natural gas and 80 to 100% open

for LP. A properly adjusted burner

should exhibit solid blue flames

that are touching the burner. All

traces of yellow should be

adjusted out of the burner flame

for natural gas and only a slight

yellow tipping should be observed

on LP gas. Large, yellow tipped

flames typically indicate not

enough air and the burner shutters

should be opened slightly.

Floating flames (not touching the

burner) typically indicate too much

air and the shutter should be

closed slightly.

LEVELING

It is important that the charbroiler is level front to back and left to right. Areas of uneven

heat distribution will occur on an unlevel unit. The charbroiler is equipped with adjustable

legs. Turn the feet at the bottom of the legs to adjust to level. The unit should be

rechecked for level anytime it has been moved.

VENTILATION HOOD

The broiler must be installed under a suitable ventilation hood. For safe operation and

proper ventilation, keep the space between the charbroiler and vent hood free from any

obstructions.

GAS CONNECTION

The data plate on the lower right side of the charbroiler indicates the type of gas your unit

is equipped to burn. DO NOT connect to any other gas type.

All gas supply connections and any joint compound must be

resistant to the action of propane gases.

Purge the supply line to clean out any dust, dirt, or any foreign matter before connecting

the line to the unit.

Codes require that a gas shut-off valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the

charbroiler. The gas supply line must be at least the equivalent of ¾” iron pipe.

60” and 72” models have a gas inlet at each end of the unit. The unit will arrive from the

factory with a metal cap on one end and a plastic dust cover on the other. You may move

the metal cap to the other end and use which ever connection point is most convenient to

the available supply outlet. The plastic dust cover must be replaced with a metal pipe cap

if you do not use that location as the gas inlet. Do not connect both of the available

charbroiler gas inlets to the gas supply.

A pressure regulator is supplied and must be installed outside of the broiler when making

the gas supply connection. Standard orifices are set for 5"WC (Water Column) for

Natural Gas — 10"WC (Water Column) for Propane. Use the

1

/

8

” pipe tap on the burner

manifold for checking pressure. Make sure the gas piping is clean and free of

obstructions, dirt, and piping compound.

An adequate gas supply is necessary. Undersized or low pressure lines will restrict the

volume of gas required for satisfactory performance. A minimum supply pressure of 7"

W.C. for natural gas and 11" W.C. for propane gas is recommended. With all units

operating simultaneously, the manifold pressure on all units should not show any

appreciable drop.

When testing the gas supply piping system, if test pressures exceed ½ psig (3.45 kPa),

the charbroiler and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply

piping system. When test pressures are ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the charbroiler must

- 8 -

be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off

valve during any pressure testing of the system.

Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks.

Use soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame.

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION

Gas regulator pressure is preset at 5” Water Column (W.C.) for natural gas, and 10” W.C.

for propane gas. Minor adjustments may be required based on site specific gas pressure.

Install the regulator as close to the broiler 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 broiler (Fig. 7) and the regulator is positioned with the vent plug and adjustment

screw upright (Fig. 8).

Fig. 7

Fig. 8

The supply pressure (upstream of the regulator) should be 7-9” W.C. for natural gas and

11-12” W.C. for propane gas. At no time should the charbroiler be connected to supply

pressure greater than ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or 14” W.C.

CASTER EQUIPPED CHARBROILERS

Charbroilers mounted on stands with casters must use a

flexible connector (not supplied) 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.

In addition, adequate means must be provided to limit

movement of the broiler without depending on the

connector and the quick-disconnect device or its

associated piping to limit broiler movement. Attach the

restraining device at the rear of the charbroiler. If

disconnection of the restraint is necessary, turn off the

gas supply before disconnection. Reconnect the restraint

prior to turning the gas supply on and return the

charbroiler to its installation position.

OPERATION

The charbroiler and its parts are hot. Use care when operating,

cleaning or servicing the charbroiler.

CONTROLS

TO COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN THE BURNERS AND PILOT LIGHTS

For complete shutdown: Turn the main gas supply valve OFF. Make sure all individual

burner valves are OFF.

PREHEATING THE CHARBROILER

Allow the charbroiler to preheat for 30 minutes. Rub grates with cooking oil before using.

Pilot Control Valves – The pilot

control valves are located between

the burner control knobs and

accessed thru slots in the front panel

(Fig. 10). There is one pilot and

corresponding adjustment screw for

every burner.

Using a flathead screwdriver, turn the

slotted, hex-head pilot adjustment

screw clockwise to decrease the

flame and counter clockwise to

increase the flame. Standing pilots

should be adjusted to provide a slight

yellow tip on the flame.

Burner Control Valves – There is one

valve for each burner. To initially

light the burners, the knobs should

be turned to the “MAX” setting then

adjusted to the desire setting as

needed.

The burners will be off when the

control knob is turned all the way to

the right and pointing to “OFF”. The

burners will be at maximum setting

when turned all the way to the left

and pointing to “MAX”. A medium

burner setting can be achieved by

adjusting the knob approximately half

way between the “OFF” and “MAX”

marks. See Fig. 11.

The charbroiler is a free vented

appliance. All products of

combustion and the heat generated

by the burners passes through the

grates. When food products are

placed on the grates, this blocks the

venting and causes a temperature

build-up.

LIGHTING THE GAS PILOT

1. Turn the main gas shut-off valve

and the individual burner gas

valves OFF. Wait 5 minutes.

2. Turn the main gas shut-off valve

ON.

3. Light each pilot using an outside

ignition source. Pass the ignition

source through the pilot access

hole in the front panel and ignite

the pilot (Fig. 12). The end of the

ignition source will need to be at

least 7” long so it can extend pass

the front panel to reach the pilot

inside.

4. While viewing through the pilot

access hole, adjust the

corresponding pilot valve screw

until the pilot has a slight yellow

tip

5. Repeat steps 3-4 until all pilots

are lit.

6. To light the burners, turn the

individual burners valves ON (MAX

setting) after all pilots are lit. (Fig.

13). If the burners fail to light, turn

all burner valves and the main gas

shut-off valve to the OFF position

and contact an authorized service

agency.

CLEANING

The charbroiler

and its parts are hot. Use care

when operating, cleaning or

servicing the charbroiler.

Scrape top grates during broiling

with a wire brush to keep the

grates clean. Do not allow debris

to accumulate on the grates. (Fig.

Never cover the surface of the charbroiler with pans or other objects in attempt

to “burn off” or clean debris from unit. This will cau se a buildup of heat that can

potentially damage and warp components of the charbroiler.

Never cover the deflector tray holes with foil or allow the deflector tray holes to

become blocked with debris. This will cause a buildup of heat that can potentially

damage and warp components of the charbroiler.

Top grates may be immersed in

strong commercial cleaning

compound overnight. In the

morning, rinse with hot water to

remove any residues of cleaning

compound. Thoroughly dry and

apply cooking oil to prevent

rusting.

Stainless steel surfaces may be

cleaned using damp cloth with

mild detergent and water solution.

Daily, when cool, remove top

grates and radiants to clean

places where fat, grease, or food

can accumulate. (Fig. 15)

Deflector trays and crumb trays

should be emptied and cleaned

regularly when cool. Ensure that

the rear hooks of the deflector tray

are over the back edge of the

crumb tray as shown in Fig. 16

when reassembled.

The charbroiler and its parts

are hot. Use care when operating, cleaning

or servicing the charbroiler.

WOOD SMOKER BOX OPERATION

1. The recommended wood size is approximately 12”

long by 4” in diameter and 1-1/2 lb in weight each.

Wood blocks could be used, not to exceed 4” x 4”

cross-section or totaling more than 14” in total

length. Hardwoods are recommended.

(Soaking wood for ~24 hours is recommended for

best results)

2. Place one piece of wood in each wood tray. Center

the wood(front to back) on the wood tray.

3. Ensure that the wood trays are pushed all the way

in before lighting the charbroiler burners. After

adding wood, the charbroiler will need to heat ~30

minutes before smoking begins to occur.

4. Wood will need to be replenished

approximately every 3 hrs. when burner valves are

set to the full ON position. This may vary with

different applications. Wood should only be

replaced after it breaks down and falls through the

wood tray grates.

5. Keep a trigger pump type water bottle on hand to

wet down flare ups on the wood. To get nominal

performance, wood should be allowed to burn as

embers. If flames are observed, spray down with

water bottle just enough to extinguish the visible

flames.

Do not put wood in tray without tray

grates in place.

Do not use wood of a larger dimension or

replenish more than recommended or necessary.

This will cause a buildup of heat that can potentially

damage and warp components of the charbroiler.

Le gril et ses com-

posants sont chauds. Soyez prudent

lorsque vous utilisez, nettoyez ou entre-

tenez ce gril à barreaux.

COMMENT SE SERVIR DE LA BOÎTE DE FUMAGE

AU BOIS

1. Il est conseillé d’utiliser des morceaux de bois

d’une longueur de 12 po et d’un diamètre de 4 po

(305 x 100 mm) ayant un poids de 1½ lb (0,7 kg)

chacun. Vous pouvez utiliser des blocs de bois en

sections ne dépassant pas 4 x 4 po (100 x 100

mm) et d’une longueur totale de 14 po (356 mm).

Des bois durs sont conseillés. (Pour obtenir de

meilleurs résultats, il est recommandé de faire

tremper le bois pendant 24 heures).

2. Placez un morceau de bois dans chacun des bacs

à bois. Centrez-le sur le bac à bois (du devant vers

l’arrière).

3. Assurez-vous que les bacs à bois sont poussés

jusqu’au fond avant d’allumer les brûleurs du gril à

barreaux. Après avoir ajouté du bois, le gril devra

chauffer pendant à peu près 30 minutes avant le

commencement de la fumaison.

4. Si les robinets des brûleurs sont réglés à plein ré-

gime, vous devrez remettre du bois environ à

toutes les 3 heures. Cela peut varier selon diffé-

rentes applications. Le bois doit être remplacé seu-

lement après s’être désintégré et qu’il soit passé au

travers des grilles des bacs à bois.

5. Gardez près de vous une bouteille d’eau à pistolet

pour éteindre les flammes qui s’embrasent à la sur-

face du bois. Pour une performance nominale,

vous devriez laisser le bois brûler en braises. Si

des flammes s’élèvent, pulvérisez de l’eau avec la

bouteille tout juste assez pour n’éteindre que les

flammes visibles.

Ne mettez pas de bois dans le bac sans y

avoir d’abord placé les grilles.

N’utilisez pas de bois d’une taille ou en quan-

tité plus grande que celles recommandées ou néces-

saires. Cela provoquera une accumulation de chaleur

qui peut potentiellement endommager et faire gauchir

les composants du gril barbecue.
