1. INSTALLATION & LOCATION LOCATION • Place the unit in a properly ventilated area. • Keep the area free and clear of all combustibles such as paper, cardboard, and flammable liquids and solvents. • This unit requires 0cm minimum clearance to non– combustible construction. The unit is not approved for installation in areas with combustible construction. • Provisions must be made for an adequate air supply to the broiler.
A. Uncrate unit and put into place. The hitch pins securing burners must be removed. This will permit the burners to be readily removed for weekly inspection, cleaning and future service. B. FOR INSTALLATION ON LEGS: A set of 4" legs is packed in the top section of the broiler (unless unit is specifically ordered without). A threaded receptacle is located near each corner base of the machine. Each leg has a similar mating thread. Raise unit sufficiently to allow legs to be screwed tightly into receptacles.

3. GAS HOOK UP An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized lines or low-pressures will restrict the volume of gas required for satisfactory performance. A steady supply pressure between 7" and 8" w.c. for natural gas and 11" to 12" w.c. for propane gas is required. With all gas appliances operating simultaneously, the manifold pressure on all gas appliances should not show any appreciable drop.
4. GAS SETTINGS Regulator pressure must be measured and adjusted before the unit goes into service, following installation and when operational performance is in question. A soft blue flame, just short of a yellow tip, gives the best results; combustion air can be adjusted by opening or closing the air shutter slightly. 5. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS A. FOCUS SERIES MODELS WITHOUT SAFETY PILOT 1. Turn all burners to OFF. 2. Remove the top grid(s). 3. Remove the last radiant(s) closest to the side(s) of the unit.
B. FOCUS SERIES MODELS WITH SAFETY PILOT 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn all burners to OFF. Remove the top grid(s). Turn the shut off valve to ON. Light the runner tube. Press and hold the (red) button on the safety pilot valve. Wait 15‐30 seconds. Light the runner tube. DO NOT release the reset button. Note: If runner tube does not light wait a few seconds, then try again.
6. INITIAL SET‐UP ALL MODELS PROPER SET‐UP OF THE CHAR BROILER – After the installation of the broiler by a qualified technician, a thorough cleaning is necessary. After this cleaning, be sure the broiler is set‐up properly. TOP GRID - Your top cooking grid has two positions, either flat or slightly tilted. Whenever you are broiling, may use one the tilted position. This allows grease to drain into the front trough, reducing both smoke and flare-up.
STAINLESS STEEL RADIANT - It is very important that the stainless steel radiants are placed over the burners. This will provide radiant heat and protect the burners from dripping grease. PREHEATING - It is necessary to preheat a cold broiler each time before cooking. The recommended time is 30-40 minutes for radiant style charbroilers, at which time the cooking grid should be hot enough to cook on without sticking, and will produce the proper searing effect.
7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE DAILY CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE TOP GRID - The top grid can be cleaned in numerous ways. The recommended procedure is to remove the grid and clean the frame, tubes and angles on front, sides and back with steel wool. The rods need only be scraped free of all cooking debris, especially the underside of the rods, using the MagiKitch'n scraper provided. The light oily sheen will aid in cooking, acting like a seasoned iron skillet.
8. IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS RECAP 1. Always cook in a tilted position. This will allow excess grease to drain into the front grease trough and reduce smoke and flare-up. 2. Keep the top cooking grids clean, especially the underside of the rods. This will insure that the grease will drain toward the front grease trough.
