PILOT
Fig. 14
Nightly Shutdown: Turn off the burner valve. The pilot will remain lit.
Seasonal Shutdown: Turn off the burner valve. Turn off the pilots. Turn off the main gas supply.
PREHEATING
Place the grid in its highest position. Turn the burner valve knob completely counterclockwise and
preheat for 15 minutes.
EFFICIENT OPERATION
Efficient operation depends on a balance between the volume of gas and supply of air. If complete
combustion of the gas is not achieved, poor operating characteristics and excessive gas consumption
will occur.
RECIPE AND GRID ADJUSTMENT
Positioning the broiler grid is an important factor in the desired product end results. Position the grid
farther away from the burners for thick meats and for melting cheese or butter to avoid drying the
product. Position the grid closer to the burners for bacon, toast and quick heating, but watch carefully
to avoid burning.
LIGHTING THE PILOT LIGHT
1. Turn on the main gas supply.
2. Turn on the burner valve and purge air from the line. Turn the burner valve off, wait five minutes
and turn the valve back on.
3. Using a taper, light the pilots (Fig.14).
4. If the pilots fail to light, turn off the gas, wait five minutes and repeat Steps 1 through 3.
