In addition to the warnings and cautions in this manual, use the following guidelines for safe operation of your
Nieco Automatic Broiler:
• Read and follow all instructions before using this equipment.
• Install or locate broiler only for its intended use as described in this manual.
• Do not operate this equipment if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has been
otherwise damaged.
• This equipment should only be serviced by authorized personnel. Contact your local Nieco Service Agent for
adjustment or repair.
• Use only genuine Nieco replacement parts for your broiler. Failure to do so will void the warranty and may
significantly alter the performance of your broiler. The use of non-Nieco parts is capable of affecting these
criteria, and may affect broiler performance, parts longevity and food safety.
The following warnings and cautions appear throughout the manual and should be carefully observed:
• Turn the broiler off, close the main gas valve, and disconnect the plug before performing any service,
maintenance or cleaning on the broiler.
• Always allow the broiler to fully cool before performing any service, maintenance or cleaning. Failure to wait
for the broiler to cool fully may result in personal injury.
• The procedures in this manual may include reference to the use of chemical products. The Nieco Corporation
does not endorse the use of any particular cleaning/degreasing agent. Use only those chemicals that are
approved for use in your kitchen.
• The broiler should be grounded according to local electrical codes to prevent the possibility of electrical shock.
It requires a grounded receptacle with separate electrical lines, protected by fuses or circuit breakers of the
proper rating.
• All electrical connections must be in accordance with local electrical codes and any other applicable codes.
• The use of adequate ventilation with this broiler is mandatory. Failure to adequately ventilate this unit and
provide safe operating distances (as specified in this manual) is a fire safety hazard. Follow the instructions for
emergency broiler shutdown in the event of an emergency.
• No attempt should be made to operate this appliance in the event of a power failure.
WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH:
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
• Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
• Do not use water on or near the control box for risk of serious injury or death due to electrical shock.
WARNING, HIGH TEMPERATURES WITH HOT SURFACES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
PROCEDURES COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY:
• Do not attempt to clean, disassemble or perform maintenance on this broiler until it is fully cooled as per the
instructions contained in this manual.

A. Pre-Installation
Uncrate the broiler and inspect for shipping damage. Remove all packaging securing the machine parts,
and install the parts in their proper location. If there are obvious or concealed damages to any part of the
broiler, please contact your freight carrier. The factory warranty does not cover freight damage.
B. Mounting
Follow the mounting instructions if this function is not performed by the installer.
C. Leveling
The grease drain system is based on a gravity-flow design. Therefore, it is extremely important that the
broiler be placed on a level surface.
D. Hood Requirements
This appliance must be installed under a ventilation hood of adequate size. Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air. An adequate air supply must be available for safe and proper operation.
For installations in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts the following shall apply: Venting shall be in
compliance with NFPA Section 10.3.5.2.
E. Clearance
Keep appliance area free from combustibles.
To facilitate disassembly and service of the unit a minimum of 24” (610 mm) should be allowed on all
three sides of the broiler.

REQUIRED CLEARANCES
Installation near combustible walls
and construction
Installation near non-combustible walls

Back of broiler 12" (305 mm) 0” (0 mm)
Sides of broiler 12" (305 mm) 0” (0 mm)

Model FH94 Gas
III. OPERATION
FH94G
F. Gas Connection- 3/4” N.P.T.
At rated input the gas supply should deliver a minimum pressure of at least 15 mbar (6” water column) at the
broiler connection for natural gas. Incoming gas supply pressure must not exceed 50 mbar (14” water column).
1. The appliance 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 psi (3.45 kPa).
2. California Proposition 65 Notification: Public initiative Proposition 65 (1986) requires identification and
listing of certain chemicals known by the State to cause cancer or reproductive harm. Broiling meats
above flames or hot surfaces may produce chemicals that are on that list. If the concentrations of
chemicals on the products exceed the “safe harbor” limits, Proposition 65 requires restaurants to post a
warning to consumers in California restaurants.
G. Installing Gas Appliance Connectors and Flexible Gas Lines Correctly
For safety in the kitchen area, and to insure maximum service life, it is vitally important to correctly install
connectors. The connector shall comply with the Standard for Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances, ANSI
Z21.69 or CAN/CGA-6.16 and a quick disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect
Devices for use with gas fuel, ANSI Z21.41 or CAN1-6.9
In order to avoid sharp kinks or excessive bends that could have a damaging effect on the connector, it may be
necessary to attach pipe elbows in order to bring the connector into its proper plane. For easy movement of the
appliance, the connector should be installed with a “lazy” loop for minimum tension.
Note: Gas appliances should be disconnected prior to maximum movement.
WARNING
If not installed, operated and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions,
this product could expose you to substances in
fuel or from fuel combustion which can cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

H. Restraining Device Installation and Use
This high strength restrainer is to be used with all moveable (castered) appliances. It fully complies with American
Gas Association requirements. References: Z21.69, Z83.11, and Z21.41 with current revisions. Installation is quick
and positive. In Canada, device is in accordance with CAN 1-6.9-M70 Quick Disconnect Devices for use with gas
fuel, and CAN 1-6.10-88 metal connectors for gas appliances.
Correct length for any appliance is simply a matter of loosening two adjuster clips (1) and re-tightening. (3"
to 6" shorter than appliance connector is desired length.) Restrainer is made of heavy duty steel cable, with a
strong scissor hood (2) at one end, and an equally strong spring hook (3) at the other. Cotter pin (4) is supplied
to secure the installation. For proper attachment to the broiler, use the supplied hardware to attach the device
to the holes in the broiler stand.
NOTE: If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, reconnect the restraint after the appliance has been returned
to its originally installed position.
I. Electrical Connection
Power requirements are stated on the unit nameplate and must be connected accordingly. This appliance, when
installed must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applicable. Before
starting broiler, tighten all electrical connections in control box. An electrical wiring diagram can be found inside
the control box.
Note: Disconnect power before servicing.
J. Pre-Operation Check
Be sure that all parts are installed in the proper location:
 Ventilation is turned on
Broiler is plugged in
 Gas line is connected
