(iv) Place Top Grates, wider flange toward the back, over the Glo-Stones until the whole broiling
area is covered. Flipping Top Grates upside down and choosing between two supports in the rear,
four positions are possible for different slopes desired.
7. DRIP PANS, GREASE DRAWER:
(i) Depending on the size of the unit, one or more Drip Pans are provided to hold any grease that
drips down while broiling. Water is usually added to the Drip Pans to reduce flare-ups and flash-
back.
(ii) A Grease Drawer is provided at the left of the Drip Pan to collect the grease from the grease
drain above.
(iii) One Grease Deflector is provided to prevent burning matter from falling into the Grease Drawer
and igniting the accumulated grease there. To install the Grease Deflector, clip its bottom edge to
the left side of the Drip Pan next to the Grease Drawer, push down all the way, then slide the Drip
Pan back into place.
(iv) Grease Drawer, Grease Deflector and Drip Pans should be cleaned daily or more frequently if
necessary.

11. ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS:
(i) Keep the area around the broiler free and clear of all combustible material.
(ii) Provision of adequate air supply to your broiler is essential. Provide for sufficient outside air to
enter the broiling area and assure that this air flow is not obstructed.
(iii) Air enters the burner area from the front of your broiler only. Assure that this area is kept open
and unobstructed.
(iv) Servicing is accomplished through the front and top of the broiler. Assure that this area is kept
unobstructed for proper servicing and operation.
12. INSTALLATION WITH CASTERS:
THIS IS AVAILABLE FOR FLOOR MODELS ONLY.
Four casters (two with wheel brakes) and the mounting hardware are packed and included in the
shipment, if ordered that way.
Install casters with wheel brakes on the front of the unit.
Installation of the unit should be made with a connector that complies with the latest edition of the
Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances ANSI Z21.69, in the USA (CAN CGA-6.16 in
Canada) and a quick disconnect device that complies with the latest edition of the standard for
quick disconnect devices for use with gas fuel ANSI Z21.41 in the USA (CAN 1-6.7 in Canada.)
Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance without depending on the
connector and any quick disconnect device or its associated piping to limit the appliance movement.
The restraint should be attached to the right side of the back of the unit close to the gas inlet pipe.
If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, the supply gas line should be disconnected first, then
the restraint. When returning it to its position, the restraint should be reconnected first, before the
gas line is reconnected.
II. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, PROPERLY TRAINED AND FAMILIAR WITH THIS
EQUIPMENT SHOULD OPERATE THIS BROILER.
1. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
See Section 10 of Installation Instructions.
Once the Pilot Burners are lit, the Main Burners of the broiler may be turned ON or OFF by
turning the control knobs.
2. BROILING:
BROILER TOP GRATES MUST BE HOT ENOUGH TO MAKE BLACK CHAR MARKS WHEN
STARTING TO BROIL.
Adequate preheating time is necessary for the food to cook properly and to release from the broiler
grates. Before Broiling, allow Radiant type units to preheat for 10-15 minutes and Glo-Stone type
units for 20-25 minutes.
8

(i) Do not press the juice out of the meat as that will dry the meat.
(ii) After Broiling, allow the meat to sit covered on a heated platter for 2-5 minutes before cutting.
This will allow the juices to ‘settle’ and the meat will be more moist.
(iii) Do not use forks or other sharp objects to poke holes in the meat or to cut the meat as it cooks.
(iv) Thick pieces of meat require longer broiling time with less flare-up. Reduce flare-up by trimming
excess fat for a longer broil time without burning.
(v) Keep the unit clean. Food caught in the grates will not allow hot air to rise around the product.
This will result in uneven heating, increase the cooking time and cause overheating of the Broiler
which may result in permanent damage.
III. MAINTENANCE
1. SERVICE:
ALL SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY A FACTORY AUTHORIZED TECHNICIAN
ONLY.
Shut off the main gas supply before attempting any maintenance or service on the unit. If required,
