1. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. INSTALLATION:
USA, In Canada,
2.ACCEPTABLE CLEARANCES:
MINIMUM CLEARANCE FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE"CONSTRUCTION:
3. GAS CONNECTION:
(a) In installation of this broiler must conform with the latest edition of theAmerican
National Standard Z-223.1 National Fuel Gas Code and/or local codes.
installation must conform with the latest edition of CAN/CGA-B149.1 or 2 Installation
Code and/or local codes.
(b) This broiler when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes, and/or the latest edition of the National Electrical CodeANSI/NFPANo. 70 in
USA(Canadian Electrical Code CSAC22.2 in Canada).
Due to intense heat generated by radiation, these broilers should be installed in noncombustible
locations only, including above the grate level.
RIGHT SIDE
000
The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed at the gas inlet of each broiler. Each
regulator is adjusted to yield a manifold pressure of 5" water column (12.5 mbar) for Natural Gas or
10" water column (25 mbar) for Propane Gas. No pressure regulator is required for propane gas in
Canada.
Recommended minimum gas supply lines are listed below:
All GG Models
SGBR-1 thru SGBR-3 1" (25 mm)
SGBR-4 thru SGBR-9
LEFT SIDE BACK
1" (25 mm)
1 1/2" (38 mm)
3

For units using Propane Gas, supply lines with less than 1/2D (12.7 mm) inside diameter
should not be used, even for a small unit.
NOTE: Be
sure plug is installed in the connection not being used.
Be sure to cap whichever side is not connected.
NOTE:
4. BURNERS:
On the GG Series, the gas may be connected either in the rear or the bottom of the unit.
On the SGBR Series the gas manifold extends out on each side near the front of the unit. Gas can
be connected from either side.
A shut-off valve in a readily accessible location must be mounted on the gas supply line
before the unit.
When making gas pipe connections, pipe joint compound resistant to the action ofJiquefied
petroleum gases should be used.
The broiler and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45
kpa).
The broiler must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kpa).
Check to see thatAIR MIXER CAPS on the front of all burners are adjusted and tightened allowing
half the opening in the burner to show.
Install burners following the steps below:
Please note that the straight burner (without the arm) is installed on the extreme right side on
models GG-2, GG-4 and GG-6 (see figure 5 ).
On the model GG-8 which has two straight burners (without arms), install one burner to the
extreme right of the unit and the second straight burner to the left of the center divider.
On the SGBR Series, only straight burners are used.

Step 1. Place the front of the burner (flat side up) into the valve assembly by fitting the center
hole of the air mixer cap over the brass orifice.
Step 2. Swing the rear end of the burner and seat it into place over the burner support pin on
the back of the unit.
Due to the compactness of the design, it is usually necessary to swing
one burner away to get the next one out.
GG Series: Place the Cast Iron Bottom Grates on the front and rear ledge of the bucket
assembly above the burners with the flat side facing up and the tapered edge
facing down toward the burners.
SGBR Series: Place the Stainless Steel Mesh Bottom Grates on the angle iron supports
above the burners.
Spread one layer of Glo-Stones covering all bottom grates. Do not use more
than one ,layer as this will reduce the amount of heat reaching the top grates
and could reduce the life of the bottom grates.
Place the Top Grates over the glo-stones with the wavy ribs face up. These grates are designed to
give a minimum of meat to metal contact. The top grates should be positioned so that the grease
drains built into each rib carry excess fat to the grease chute. The grease chute is located in the
rear on the GG series and in the front on theSGBR Series.
If Griddle Plates are used, they should not cover more than 50% of the broiling area. Each Griddle
Plate covers the same area as two top grates.
For GG Series broilers, the Griddle Plates should be placed on top of the top grates.
For SGBR Series broilers, the Griddle Plates should replace the top grates.

UNIT IS TURNED "OFF".
WAITAT LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFOREATTEMPTING TO RELIGHT.
b. SGBR Series
If any burner fails to light, turn the valve to "OFF", wait five minutes and repeat
the above procedure.
There are two pilot burners and shut off valves, (except for model GG-2 which only has one) one for
the right half and another for the left half of the unit.To light the pilot burners:
1. Turn all broiler valves to the "OFF" position.
2. Open main gas shut off valve (supplied by customer)
3. Allow air to bleed from the gas line through the pilot burners.
4. Light the pilot burners using a lit taper through the open areas above the salamander
rack below the burners. The pilot burner can also be lit by using a lit taper from above
the burners before the top grates, bottom grates and glo-stones are installed.
5. With a screwdriver adjust the pilot valves to provide a 1/2" (12.7 mm) flame.
Turn clockwise to reduce or counter clockwise to increase the pilot burner.
6. Turn right burner control valve "ON" to light burners on the right half of the unit,
and turn left burner control valve "ON" to light burners on the left side of the unit.
7.
8. To shut down the unit, turn both burner control valves "OFF".
Each burner has a standing pilot burner which must be lit before the burners can be lit. To light the
pilot burners:
1. Turn all broiler valves to the off position.
2. Open main gas shut off valve (supplied by customer).
3. Allow air to bleed from the gas line through the pilot burners.
4. Light the pilot burners using a lit taper through the open areas above the salamander
rack below the burners. The pilot burners can also be lit by using a lit taper from
above the burners before the top grates, bottom grates and glo-stones are installed.
5. With a screwdriver, adjust the pilot valves to provide a 1/2" (12.7 mm) flame. Turn
clockwise to reduce or counter clockwise to increase the pilot burner.
6. Turn each burner control valve "ON" to light burners.

AFTER TURNING BROILER CONTROLVALVES OFF,ALWAYS WAITAT LEAST5
MINUTES BEFOREATTEMPTING TO RELIGHTIF PILOTBURNER GOES OUT.
a. Keep the area around the broiler free and clear of combustible materials.
b. The provisions of an adequate air supply to your broiler is essential. Provide for
sufficient air to enter the broiling area and assure that this air flow is not obstructed.
c. Air enters the burner area from the front and bottom of your broiler.Assure that
these areas are kept open and unobstructed. .
d. Servicing is accomplished through the front and top of the broiler.Assure. that
these areas are kept unobstructed for proper servicing and operation.
a. Install the casters with wheel brakes on the front of the appliance.

II. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. LIGHTING PROCEDURE:
2. BROILING PROCEDURE:
BROILER TOP GRATES MUST BE HOT ENOUGH TO MAKE BLACK CHAR-MARKS WHEN
STARTING TO BROIL.
3. MAINTENANCE:
(a) SERVICE:
See Section 6 of Installation Instructions.
Once the pilot burners are lit, the broiler may be turned ON or OFF by turning the control valves ON
or OFF as necessary.
Adequate pre-heating time is necessary for the food to release from the broiler and to cook
properly.Allow the unit to pre-heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour before broiling.
(a) Do not press the juice out of the meat because that will cause dry products.
(b) 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 product will be more moist.
(c) Do not use forks or other sharp objects to poke holes in the meat. Do not cut the meat
as it cooks.
(d) Thick pieces of meat require a longer broiling time with less flare-up. Reduce flare up
by trimming excess fat for a longer broiling time without burning.
(e) Keep the unit clean. Food caught between the grate will not allow hot air to rise
around the product. This will result in uneven heating and increase the cooking time.
Shut off the main gas supply before attempting any maintenance on the unit. If required, contact
your Dealer, the Factory, or a local Service Company to obtain qualified maintenance and repairs.

(b) CAREAND CLEANING OF TOP GRATES:
Under no circumstances should the grates be placed in a
dishwasher. Soap, water, or any detergent should never be used on the cast iron grates.
NOTE: The following procedures should only be done when the unit is cold. DO NOT
attempt steps c, d, or e when the unit is hot.
(c) CARE OF GLO-STONES:
(d) CARE OF BOTTOM GRATES:
(e) CARE OF THE BURNERS:
(f) GREASE COLLECTION:
(g) CLEANING TOOLS:
The top grates should be cleaned using a stiff wire brush. If this is done daily, the accumulation of
food and fat caught in the grates and work necessary to keep them clean will be reduced.
Periodically they should be turned over and brushed and then put back. In the event that an extra
amount of fat is accumulated on the top, due to use of low heat, we recommend turning up the
flame of this section for about an hour, which will burn off much of the fat and residue and the
brushing operation will be easier.
On a weekly basis, the top grates should be removed and the Glo-Stones mixed about to break
away any carbon deposit so that it falls through the bottom grates. Spread the Glo-Stones evenly
and add only the amount necessary for a single layer.
Periodically,'push all the Glo-Stones to one side and inspect the bottom grates. If necessary brush
the grates with a wire brush. If the grates are cracked, broken or deteriorated they should be
replaced.
All the burners should be checked at the same time as the bottom grates. Grease build up on the
burners should be removed with a wire brush. Make sure all the burner ports are clean.Athin sharp
object can be used to clean the burner ports if necessary.
GG series char-broilers are designed to bring grease to the rear of unit from where the grease drips
into the grease collection pan in the lower section of the broiler.
SGBR Series char-broilers are designed to bring grease into the front channel which in turn drains
the grease into the grease collection pan in the lower section of the broiler.
The grease collection pans in the lower section should be cleaned daily or more often if necessary.
The channel should be cleaned periodically with a stiff brush or scraper.
Several models of specially designed top grate brushes and grease drain scrapers are available
from Bakers Pride. Contact Bakers Pride for more information.
