LOCATION OF DATA PLATE
The data plate is located on the side panel.
IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE
All equipment should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier
has assumed responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If equipment is received damaged,
either apparent or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.
A) Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. It must then
be signed by the carrier representative (Driver). If this is not done, the carrier may refuse the claim.
The carrier can supply the necessary forms.
B) If concealed damage is not apparent until after equipment is uncrated, a request for inspection
must be made to the carrier within 15 days. The carrier should arrange an inspection. Be certain to
hold all contents and packaging material.
Installation and service should be performed by a qualified installer who thoroughly reads,
understands and follows these instructions.

GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure gas supply and gas type, as shown on unit nameplate, agree.
Unit installaon must conform with the Naonal Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the
Naonal Gas Installaon Code, CSA-B149.1, or the Propane Installaon Code, CSA-B149.2 as
applicable and in accordance with local codes.
Screw legs into the permanently fastened nuts on the four corners of the unit and ghten by hand.
Level the unit by turning the adjustment screw at the boom of each leg. Do not slide unit with
legs mounted, liif necessary to move unit.
Pipe threading compound must be resistant to the acon of liquefied petroleum gases.
Cauon: DO NOT use an open flame to check for leaks. Check all gas piping for leaks with a soap
and water soluon before operang unit.
THESE UNITS ARE SUITABLE FOR INSTALLATION ON NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES ONLY.
Combusble clearances:
6" sides (152 mm) 6" rear (152 mm) 4" floor (102 mm)
Noncombusble clearances:
0" sides ( 0 mm) 0" rear ( 0 mm) 4" floor (102 mm)
Do not obstruct the flow of combuson and venlaon air under the unit by the legs or behind
the unit by the flue.
Adequate clearance for air openings into the combuson chamber is required. Do not place

CONVERSION
These instructions are for the conversion from Natural Gas to Propane (L.P.) on all models. The
conversion should be done before connecting the unit to the gas supply.
Units are shipped from the factory equipped for use on natural gas. Orifices necessary for LP
(propane) are provided in a bag tied to the valve on the front panel.
1. Remove the knobs and front panel.
2 . Uns
2. Unscrew bolts and pilot valve,
then remove the manifold.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
The pilot light on the appliance has been set at the factory. A screwdriver may be required for the
first lighting to adjust the flame for your elevation.
1. Turn off the manual valve and wait 5 minutes to clear the air gas.
2. Turn all knobs to the "OFF" position.
3. Hold an ignition source (match) at the pilot. When the flame is established, remove the
ignition source.
4. Turn the burner knobs to "ON". If the burner does not ignite, promptly open the pilot valve
more. If the pilot flame appears larger than necessary, turn it down and reset burner ignition. The
pilot flame should be as small as possible but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition of the
burners when the knobs are turned to "ON".
Lighting main burner
To light burner, turn knob to “ON.” Then adjust to the desired flame level. The range of adjustment
is virtually infinite between “ON” and “OFF”.
Main burner air supply:
1. For efficient burner operation, a proper balance of gas volume and primary air supply must be
maintained which will result in complete combustion. Insufficient air supply results in a yellow
streaming flame. Primary air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner.
2. Loosen the screws on the front of the burner and adjust the air shutter to just eliminate the
yellow tips of the burner flame. Lock the air shutter in place by tightening the screws.
CAUTION
Never attempt to move a grill section while cooking. An unexpected flare could cause severe injury.
Turn off the unit, let it cool and use potholders and/or gloves to reposition or remove. The space
between the legs at the bottom admits combustion air. DO NOT BLOCK THIS SPACE.
All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the valve to the desired flame height is
all that is required to put the unit in service.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to
the units' sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within a room.
It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the
amount of air removed by any ventilating system. Otherwise, a subnormal atmospheric pressure
will occur, affecting operation and causing undesirable working conditions.
A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room
or area in which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft
conditions.
All valves must be checked and lubricated periodically. This must be done by an authorized service
representative in your area.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATION: Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking for preheang. Set the
knobs to the desired flame height or temperature. Each valve will control the gas flow to the
burner to bring that area of the unit up to the set temperature. If different temperature sengs
are to be used, adjoining areas should be set at progressively higher temperatures using the
lowest temperatures on the outside burners. A uniform and systemac approach to the loading of
the unit will produce the most consistent product results.
RADIANTS（Only use to CBR15,CBR24,CBR36,CBR48）
Place the radiants in their posion as shown in Sketch 1. Make sure that the radiants are seng
properly into the slots on the front and rear supports. Radiants should be centered over the
straight secon of the burners.
COOKING GRATES
Place the top cooking grates with the grid bars sloping toward the front as shown in Sketch 2.
NOTE: When cooking grates are placed sloping toward the front, the grooves on top will guide the
excess fat drippings into the grease trough.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
INITIAL CLEANING:
Prior to operang your new broiler, thoroughly wash the exterior with a mild detergent or soap
soluon. Do not use abrasive cleaners, since this might damage the cabinet finish. If the stainless
steel surfaces become discolored, scrub by rubbing only in the direcon of the finished grain.
When the broiler is first heated, it will smoke unl oil used in manufacturing, preservaon and
dust from storage and shipping are burned off. An hour at "max." on all burners is usually
sufficient.

DAILY CLEANING:
Remove the grease pan, empty and wash it.
Grate "burn off'. The grease buildup on the grates should be cleaned daily (more oen as needed).
A. Cauon:When handling grates or radiants, always use insulated gloves to prevent burns.
B. Warning: Do not cover the top of the grid grates during a burn offoperaon. Restricng the airflow by
covering the grid grates may cause them to warp. It will also cause damage to the valves, the knobs and the
front panel decal.
C. Place grates on broiler, with grid bars horizontal, facing down.
D. Turn the broiler on for approximately 45 minutes.
E. Turn offthe broiler and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
F. Clean top and boom surfaces of grate with a wire brush to remove animal fats and carbonized grease.
G. Clean channels on grates with a scraper.
H. Remove grates from broiler. Clean top surface of radiants with wire brush. They may be cleaned in place.
NOTE: Parts protected by the manufacturer or his agent are not to be adjusted by the installer, unless the
installer is an authorized service agent.
