Before installing, verify that the electrical service and type of gas supply (natural or propane) agree with the specifications on the rating plate located inside the griddle door panel. If the supply and equipment requirements do not agree, do not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer or Vulcan-Hart Company immediately.
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. A minimum front clearance of 32" is required. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room to replace air taken out by the ventilating system.
GAS CONNECTIONS CAUTION: Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of propane gases. Location of the gas inlet is at the rear of the griddle. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve must be installed in the gas line ahead of the griddle.
