INSTALLATION
Before installing, verify that the electrical service and type of gas supply (natural gas or
propane) agree with the specifications on the rating plate riveted to the right side of the
unit in the upper front corner. If the supply and equipment requirements do not agree, do
not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer immediately.
UNPACKING
This griddle was inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company
assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of shipment. Check for
possible shipping damage immediately after unpacking. If the griddle is found to be
damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Carefully unpack your griddle and make sure that no parts are discarded with packaging
material. A pressure regulator designed to operate with the griddle has been supplied and
must be installed before the griddle is placed into service (Refer to GAS PRESSURE
REGULATOR INSTALLATION in this manual).
LOCATION
The installation location must be kept free and clear of combustibles. When installing,
never enclose the bottom of the griddle with a raised curb or other constructions that
would obstruct flow of air into or out of the griddle. Adequate clearance for air openings
into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of
air in the room to replace air taken out by the ventilation system.
Do not permit air to blow directly at the griddle. Avoid open windows next to the griddle
wherever possible. Avoid wall-type fans which create air cross-currents within the room.
