INSTALLATION continued
CAUTION: Prior to installation, check the electrical supply
to ensure input voltage and phase match the equipment
voltage rating and phase. See data plate located rear left side
of grill and lower front panel.
Grill is to be located directly under ventilation system.
Once installed in the grill station underneath the ventilation
system, the platens, in their highest position, must not
interfere with the lower lip of the ventilation system hood.
The raised position of each platen is adjusted by raising
or lowering the upper of the two microswitches, (limit
switches), in the rear of the grill. The lower microswitch
position must not be adjusted.
Grill plate must be level front to back, side to side and
diagonally. This leveling must be done with the unit under
the hood and in it’s normal operational position to prevent
warping of the grill plate.
NOTE: Fuses are installed to prevent damage in the event of
failure of the upper microswitch.
Installation shall be made with the gas connector that has
been supplied loose with the grill. The quick disconnect
fitting and gas shut off valve must be installed in the
direction indicated on their outer body.
NOTE: When checking gas pressure, be sure that all other
equipment on the same gas line is on.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system pressures in excess of 1/2
PSIG (3.45kPa).
Adequate clearance must be provided for servicing and
proper operation.
National Codes Requirements:
The type of gas for which the grill is equipped is stamped on
the data plate on the inside rear of the unit and on the lower
front panel. Connect a grill stamped for Natural Gas (High
(H) or Low (L) Calorific Value) only to Natural Gas; connect
those stamped for Propane Gas only to Propane Gas. When
installing gas grills, the installation must comply with the
latest edition of the codes and installation regulations in
force.
Connections, and Pipe Sizing:
The size of the gas line is very important. Ensure that the
pipe size is adequate for the demand, including other gas
appliances on the same supply. If the line is too small, the
gas pressure at the burner manifold will be low. This will
cause slow recovery and delayed ignition. The incoming gas
pressure line should be a minimum of 1-1/2”. All gas Xpress
Grills are supplied with a 3/4” NPT threaded male fitting,
which must be adapted in the field to a suitable connection
that applies to ISO 7-1 or ISO 228-1.
Before connecting new pipe the pipe must be blown out to
dispose of any foreign particles. These particles will cause
improper operation.
When using thread compound, use small amounts on male
threads only. Use a compound that is not effected by the
chemical action of LP gases. Avoid applying compound
to the first two threads to prevent clogging of the burner
orifices and control valve.
Have the installer check all gas plumbing with a soap
solution for leaks. DO NOT USE matches, candles or other
ignition sources in checking for leaks.
The grill must be disconnected from the gas supply system
when pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of
150mbar.
Check the data plate to determine the proper type of gas
before connecting the quick disconnect or piping from the
building gas supply.
An incoming gas pressure test nipple is provided on the
incoming gas manifold for pressure checks.
