OPERATION

FOR AN APPLIANCE EQUIPPED WITH CASTERS, THE INSTALLATION SHALL BE MADE WITH A
CONNECTOR THAT COMPLIES WITH THE STANDARD FOR CONNECTORS FOR MOVABLE GAS
APPLIANCES, ANSI Z21.69-1987, CAN1 6.10-88 AND A QUICK-DISCONNECT DEVICE THAT
COMPLIES WITH THE STANDARD FOR QUICK-DISCONNECT DEVICES FOR USE WITH GAS
FUEL, ANSI Z21.41-1978, AND ADDENDA, Z21.41a.l981, Z21.41b.l983 AND CAN1 6.9 M79.
ADEQUATE MEANS MUST BE PROVIDED TO LIMIT THE MOVEMENT OF THE APPLIANCE
WITHOUT DEPENDING ON THE CONNECTOR AND THE QUICK-DISCONNECT DEVICE OR ITS
ASSOCIATED PIPING TO LIMIT THE APPLIANCE MOVEMENT.
IF DISCONNECTION OF THIS RESTRAINT IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE APPLIANCE FOR
CLEANING, ETC., RECONNECT IT WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS MOVED TO ITS ORIGINALLY
INSTALLED POSITION.
Before turning main gas supply on, make sure all control valves are in the "OFF" position.
All units are adjusted at the factory. On new installations start with the top burner of the unit(s) furthest from the gas input to
the manifold. This will purge the system of air. Turn gas supply "ON."
STANDARD-TYPE OVEN:
1.
Open door, raise hold-down clips and remove oven bottom so burner is visible.
2.
Turn oven burner to OFF.
3.
Removel panel from spring compartment below oven door.
4.
Depress RED button on safety valve and light pilot. New installations may require time to bleed air from system before
pilot will become steady. The pilot flame should impinge on the bulb to cause it to glow red. If flame is too long and soft,
bulb may be in "hollow" part of flame and will not glow.
5.
Hold red button allowing pilot to burn approximately 45 seconds, until tip of bulb glows red, and then release button.
If pilot does not remain ignited, wait 5 minutes and repeat procedure.
NOTE: The lighting procedure is also printed on a plate attached to the front of the spring compartment cover.
6.
Once pilot holds when button is released, set thermostat dial to maximum and turn ON the oven valve at manifold.
7.
Burner flames should be 3/4" to 1" long.
8.
Reduce thermostat setting slowly until by-pass seat in thermostat just snaps OFF.
Immediately reverse rotation and turn dial counterclockwise until by-pass snaps open.
The by-pass flame should be 1/8" minimum and 1/4" maximum on each port.
A small fluttering by-pass flame may flash back into the burner and ignite on the orifice when the door is quickly opened
and closed. This will create a carbon deposit inside the burners which impedes proper primary air injection.
9.
Check entire oven gas system for leaks.
10.
Replace oven bottom and be sure hold-down clips are lowered to keep bottom in place and prevent warping. Replace
spring compartment panel.
For daily shutdown turn main oven valve OFF. For complete oven shutdown turn main oven valve OFF and extinguish oven
pilot
