10 OM-BLT/BLP-G
Operation
A. Controls
Operator controls for the braising pans are:
1. Power ON Switch and Power ON indicator
2. The thermostat dial, located on the control console to the right rear of the
pan body. This dial is used to turn the thermostat on or off and to set the
thermostat for pan temperatures between 175° and 425°F.
3. HEATing indicator light located on the control panel, lights when the
burners have ignited.
4. The main supply gas valve, installed on the gas line to the unit.
5. For units with standing pilot flame, the gas control valve is on the
Combination Gas Control, which is located under the pan on the gas line to
the burner manifold. This valve has settings of “OFF”, “PILOT”, or “ON” for
the Combination Control.
6. For power tilt units a switch is located on the control panel. It is used to
raise and lower the pan body.
B. Operating Procedure
1. To Tilt Pan Body
a. Manual Tilt Model -
Turn the tilting handwheel clockwise to tilt the pan body, or
counterclockwise to return the pan body to horizontal. 23 complete
turns of the handwheel will tilt the body 90 degrees to vertical.
b. Power Tilt Model -
1. Press the power tilt switch marked “up” to raise the pan or
“down” to lower the pan.
2. The spring loaded switch will return to the OFF (middle) position
when you release it.
3. If the power tilt mechanism stops working (see the
Troubleshooting section) and you must raise or lower the pan
body without delay, you can tilt the body by hand. Remove the
small plug on top of the control box and fit the provided tool
into the hole. Turn the tool clockwise to lower it. It may take
several minutes to move the pan to the desired position, but the
operation can be speeded up by substituting a reversible drill
with a 1/4” hexagonal driver bit in place of the tool.
2. For Standard Models with Electronic Ignition
a. To Start Pan (See Panel Overlay) -
1. Set the Power Switch to “OFF.”
2. Set the thermostat to “OFF.”
3. Open the main supply gas valve (handle parallel to the gas pipe).
4. Set Power Switch to “ON.”
5. Rotate the thermostat dial until the Heat Light comes on. (It
lights when the main burner is on).
