NOTE: ALL GAS FITTING MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.
1. Waldorf Salamanders do not require an electrical connection, as they function totally on gas supply
only.
2. It is essential that gas supply is correct for Salamander to be installed and that adequate supply
pressure and volume are available. The following checks should be made before installation:-
a. Gas Type appliance has been supplied
for, is shown on a coloured stickers located
above gas connection and next to rating
plate. Check that this is correct for gas
supply appliance is being installed for. Gas
conversion procedure is detailed in this
manual.
b. Supply Pressure required for this
appliance is shown in Specifications
section of this manual. Check gas supply to
ensure adequate supply pressure exists.
c. Input Rate of this appliance is stated on Rating Plate and in Specifications section of this manu-
al. Input rate should be checked against available supply line capacity. Particular note should
be taken if salamander is being added to an existing installation.
NOTE: It is important that adequately sized piping runs directly to connection joint on appliance
with as few tees and elbows as possible to give maximum supply volume.
3. Fit gas regulator supplied, into gas supply line as close to appliance as possible. (Refer to
Specifications section for gas supply location dim ensions).
NOTE: Gas pressure regulator provided with this appliance is convertible between Natural Gas and
LPG as per ‘Gas Conversion Section’ in this manual.
Ensure regulator is converted to correct gas type that appliance will operate on.
Regulator outlet pressure is fixed ex-factory for gas type that regulator is converted to and
it is NOT to be adjusted.
Regulator connections are 1/2" BSP female.
Connection to appliance is 1/2" BSP male.
(Refer to Specifications section for gas supply location dimensions).
NOTE: A Manual Isolation Valve must be fitted to individual appliance supply line.
4. Correctly locate appliance into its final operating position.
5. Connect gas supply to appliance. A suitable jointing compound which resists breakdown action of
LPG must be used on every gas line connection, unless compression fittings are used.
6. Check all gas connections for leakages using soapy water or other gas detecting equipment.
7. Check gas operating pressure is as shown in Specifications section.
NOTE: Measure operating pressure at manifold test point with both burners operating at ‘High
Flame’ setting.
8. Verify operating pressure remains correct.

1. Waldorf Salamanders have been designed to provide simplicity of operation and 100% safety
protection.
2. Improper operation is almost impossible, however bad operation practices can reduce the life of the
salamander and produce a poor quality product. To use this salamander correctly please read the
following sections carefully:-
Lighting the Main Burners.
Racking System.
Cooking Recommendations.
The salamander has individual heat controls for left and right sides. Select desired heat level and allow a
few minutes for elements to heat up.
Waldorf salamanders provide two independently controlled heat zones.
High speed grilling is provided by two infrared gas burners in ceiling of grilling compartment.
Left hand and right hand gas control knobs operate the left side and right side burners respectively,
independently of each other.
Each burner is provided with piezo ignition and flame failure protection for main burner.

1. Check gas supply is turned On.
2. Depress gas control knob and rotate anti-clockwise to HIGH position.
a. Non UK Models (Piezo Ignition):- With gas control knob depressed, press piezo ignition
button to ignite main burner.
b. UK Models (Manual Ignition):- Manually light Main Burner, holding Gas Control Knob
depressed for approx. 10 -15 seconds, then release.
3. Once lit, main burner will be burning at full rate. For a lower heat, push in gas control knob and
turn fully anti-clockwise to 'LOW' position.
4. For intermediate heat, position control knob between 'HIGH' and 'LOW' positions.
5. Repeat Items 2 to 5 to light second main burner.
1. Depress gas control knob and rotate clockwise to 'OFF' position.
2. Main burner will extinguish.
Rack System fitted to Salamander, when withdrawn, is self-supporting to allow easy loading of food.
Installation of rack is dependent on cooking function required.
Maximum Loading Per Rack - 15kg
1. The SN8200G Salamander has been designed to give a good evenness of heat across rack area, so
toasting, cheese melting and grilling should be relatively even wherever food is placed.
2. The HIGH position is recommended for most grilling, cheese melting functions and LOW for reduced
heat.
3. For cooking food through rather than just surface browning, rack position three and four from the
top is recommended.
4. With Branding Plate fitted, unit is able to aid the chef in its ability to produce medium rare steaks in
the front and well done steaks at the rear - achieved with sloped Branding Plate rack position.
(Shelf 2 and 3 from top).
5. Heating Branding Plate under burners before cooking commences, also allows sealed in flavoured
goodness to be achieved.

IMPORTANT:
Should any abnormal operation like;
- ignition problems,
- abnormal burner flame,
- burner control problems,
- partial or full loss of burner flame in normal operation, be noticed, appliance requires IMMEDIATE service by a
qualified service person and should not be used until a service is carried out.

14
To achieve the best results, cleaning must be thorough and all controls and mechanical parts
checked and adjusted periodically by a competent serviceman. If any small faults occur, have them
attended to promptly.
Don't wait until they cause a complete breakdown.
To clean this unit and racking system and to achieve the best results, it is recommended that racking
is removed completely from the unit and cleaned independently. This will allow for a more thorough
cleaning of the Salamander.
To remove racking system, carry out the following instructions.
1. Remove Trough Tray from underside of salamander unit.
2. Remove Branding Plate from rack (if fitted).
3. Slide rack out of side racks and remove from unit.
4. Remove left and right hand side racks from unit by removing single securing screw from each
of side racks.
5. Withdraw left and right hand side racks from unit.
6. Refit racking in reverse order once cleaning has been completed.
Clean with detergent. Baked on deposits or discolouration may require a good quality stainless steel
cleaner or stainless steel wool. Always apply cleaner when Salamander is cool and rub in direction of
grain.
Do not use wire brushes, steel wool or other abrasive material. Clean enamelled surfaces regularly
with a good quality domestic oven cleaner. Remove rack and side racks from Salamander - this
allows easy cleaning of flat enamelled side walls. Leave tray in to collect all residue.
Empty and clean daily.

15
NOTE: All maintenance operations should only be carried out by a qualified service person.
To achieve the best results cleaning must be regular and thorough and all controls and mechanical parts
should be checked and adjusted periodically by a qualified service person. If any small faults occur, have
them attended to promptly. Don't wait until they cause a complete breakdown. It is recommended that
the appliance is serviced every 6 months.
Gas Control Valve Re-Greasing
Gas control valve should be dismantled and greased every 6 months to ensure correct operation.
To carry out this operation;-
a. Remove gas control knobs from gas tap spindles by pulling
knobs away from control panel.
b. Remove drip tray from appliance.
c. Remove two screws on underside of control panel, securing
control panel to hob.
d. Remove control panel from front of appliance.
e. Remove 2 screws holding shaft plate to gas control body and
remove control shaft and plate. (See Fig 9). Note orientation
of shaft for correct re-assembly.
f. Using needle nose pliers or similar, pull out gas control
spindle, again noting its orientation.
g. Apply a suitable high temperature gas cock grease or
lubricant such as ROCOL - A.S.P (Anti scuffing paste) /
Dry Moly Paste to outside of spindle. (See Fig 10).
h. Replace spindle and re-assemble gas control valve in
reverse order.
