2.3 Pre-Connection Preparations
DANGER
Do not connect cooker to gas supply before completing each step in this section.
After the cooker has been positioned under the exhaust hood, ensure the following has been
accomplished:
1. Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of cookers without depending upon
the gas line connections. If a flexible gas hose is used, a restraining cable must be connected
at all times when the cooker is in use. The restraining cable and installation instructions are
packed with the flexible hose in the accessories box that was shipped with your unit.
2. Single unit cookers (GBS/GC) must be stabilized by installing restraining chains on cooker
equipped with casters or anchor straps on cooker equipped with legs. Follow the instruction
shipped with the casters/legs to properly install the chains or straps.
DANGER
Do not attach an apron drain board to a single cooker. The cooker may become
unstable, tip over, and cause injury. The appliance area must be free and clear of
combustible material at all times.
3. Level cookers equipped with legs by screwing out the legs approximately 1 inch then adjus t-
ing them so that the cooker is level and at the proper height in the exhaust hood.
NOTE: There are no built-in leveling devices on cookers equipped with casters. The floor
where the cooker is to be installed must be level.
4. For GSMS and GBC units, install the basket lift arms onto the rods (located at the top rear of
the cabinet), ensuring that the lift arms are guided by the basket lift rollers.
5. Connect the water supply to the faucet and, on units with the Autofill option, the water
solenoid valve. (The valve is located on the lower frame behind the doorpost.)
CAUTION
Before connecting the water supply to units equipped with solenoid valves, purge
the water line to ensure there is no trash in the line.
DANGER
The maximum allowable incoming water pressure to the regulator for all units is
80 PSI (56.3 kg/cm
2
).
The maximum allowable incoming water temperature for all units is 180°F (82°C).
NOTE: Either hot or cold water supplies may be connected to the water solenoid valve. However,
connecting to a hot water supply will minimize the amount of time required to attain operating
temperature when filling the cooker with fresh water.
NOTE: In order for the water level sensors to work properly, a certain amount of mineral content is
necessary in the water. For that reason, purified, deionized, or highly filtered water should not be
used.
