DANGER:
FIRE AND EXPLOSION
HAZARD
NEVER use an open flame to
check for gas leaks. Fire and
explosion may result.
IMPORTANT:
All pipe joints must be checked
for leaks before lighting. Leak
checks should be performed
with a soap and water solution.
WARNING:
FIRE HAZARD
This griddle is supplied with a
gas pressure regulator.
Failure to properly install the
supplied regulator will result in
an extremely hazardous
condition.
Flow arrow stamped on body
of regulator must point toward
the griddle.
Vent hole must point UP.
IMPORTANT:
Verify fuel gas type. If the
available fuel does not match
the nameplate specification,
exchange the griddle for the
correct type.
IMPORTANT:
The appliance and its
individual manual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from
supply system piping during
any pressure testing of that
system at pressures in excess
of 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
Also, the appliance must be
isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping at test
pressures equal to or less than
1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).

INSTALLATION (continued)
INSTALLING THE GAS GRIDDLE
Refer to the nameplate. Verify the fuel type and pressure, which must
match the nameplate specifications. Connecting the griddle to the
wrong fuel type and/or pressure will compromise the safety and/or
performance of the appliance.
BE SURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE
SURFACES.
The griddle must be placed in its final operational position and leveled
front-to-back and side-to-side, with a spirit level, prior to beginning the
gas piping installation. Re-check the level of the unit at the conclusion
of the gas piping installation.
Each gas griddle is supplied with a separate gas pressure regulator,
which must be installed on the manifold pipe protruding from the rear
of
the griddle. Ensure that the regulator is installed such that the flow
arrow
stamped on the body of the regulator points toward the griddle.
Failure to
properly install the supplied regulator will result in an extremely
hazardous condition.
A moisture trap (drip leg) consisting of a tee, 4
”
nipple pointing down,
and cap must be installed upstream of the gas pressure regulator.
A manual gas shut-off valve may be required by local codes and is,
in
any case, strongly recommended. The shut-off valve must be
installed between the gas supply piping and the gas pressure
regulator.
Shut-off valves, moisture trap and all associated piping must be
supplied by the gas piping installer.
It is the responsibility of the gas piping installer to
identify the code requirement for a shut-off valve.
