Installation, Operation and Care of MAGIC-FIN HEAVY DUTY GAS CHAR BROILERS MODELS GHMCB34 & GHMCB51 KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL The manufacturer suggests that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided. Your Vulcan Gas Char Broiler is produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation, usage and maintenance of your broiler will result in many years of satisfactory performance.
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. A minimum front clearance of 36" is required. The broiler must be installed so that the flow of combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room suitable for the amount of combustion gas feeding the broiler burners.
LEVELING AND CONNECTING MANIFOLDS 1. Place the broiler in the exact position it is to occupy. If the broiler is to be used in a battery, it is recommended that it be installed on either end of the battery due to the intense heat and the need for adequate ventilation. The broiler may NOT be installed next to a deep fat fryer. 2. Using a carpenter's level, level the broiler from front to rear and from side to side.
4. Engage union nut on manifold pipe with male fitting on next appliance and draw union hand tight. Be sure broilers butt both front and rear. 5. If manifolds do not line up, units are not level. 6. If the broiler is installed on the end of the battery and the top of the front top does not line up with the adjacent unit, adjust front tops by means of bolts on the underside before replacing the manifold cover and installing the valve handles. 7.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM When test pressures exceed 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the broiler and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system. When test pressures are 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the broiler must be isolated from the gas supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve. FLUE CONNECTIONS DO NOT obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located on the rear of the broiler.
OPERATION WARNING: THE BROILER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING OR SERVICING THE BROILER. CONTROLS (Fig. 4) Burner Valves — regulate the gas flow to the broiler burners. Turn knob counterclockwise to increase flame and clockwise to decrease flame. Reversible Grid Tops Burner Valves Grease Collector Tray PL-40164-1 Model GHMCB34 Shown Fig. 4 LIGHTING AND SHUTDOWN INSTRUCTIONS 1. Turn main gas supply ON. 2. Turn burner valve ON and purge air from lines.
PREHEATING 1. Turn burner valves to the HI position and allow 30-35 minutes for preheating. After this period of preheating time, grid temperatures should be in the ideal range for the most favorable cooking results (around 600°F). 2. Turn burner valve to the LO position (which is preset at the factory) to maintain grid temperatures between 575°F and 625°F, which will provide ideal cooking conditions and the optimum finished product.
Stainless Steel When scraping off heavy deposits of grease or oil from stainless steel equipment, never use ordinary steel scrapers and knives. Particles of ordinary steel may become embedded in, or lodge on, the surface of the stainless steel. These will rust, causing unsightly stains. Where it is necessary to scrape, use stainless steel, wood, plastic or rubber tools. Clean exterior finish of equipment with a mild soap solution or similar grease dissolving material.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: THE BROILER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING OR SERVICING THE BROILER. VENT Annually check the hood venting system and appliance flue to ensure they are free of obstructions. Be sure appliance is cool to the touch before making any hood or flue checks.
