If dirt or other foreign matter is blocking gas
flow, then the supply line should be disconnect-
ed and the line purged. This procedure is not
covered under warranty.
2) If gas is present at the Manual Valve
,
and Electrical continuity of the valve exists per
Step 6 above, remove and visually check the
valve orifice for blockage. If none exists,
remove / replace Thermal Valve
CHECK 1) Gas pressure and supply as outlined in
the "General" section.
2) Ensure the orifice hood is not tightened
down onto the L.P. jet nested within the Thermal
Valve.
3) Adjust the air shutter closed until the
flame is yellow, then open slightly until the yellow
disappears.
1) To calibrate the Griddle Thermostat, place
a reliable griddle thermometer on the center of the
griddle plate. Rotate the thermostat to 350°F. After 3
burner cycles, the griddle plate should have reached
equilibrium.
2)
(You'll need a knob with a hole drilled through
the center to allow a flat-tipped screwdriver to be inserted
through it.)
With the knob in place, insert a thin blade,
flat-tipped screwdriver through the knob and nest it
into the small slotted screw in the thermostat (it may
be necessary to clear the screw of a small amount of
sealant)
3) Note the temperature shown on the grid-
dle thermometer, then, while holding the screw still
with the screwdriver, rotate the knob to the ther-
mometer temperature. DO NOT TURN THE
CALIBRATION SCREW. Reset the temperature and
check for accuracy. Repeat if necessary.
