INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND CARE OF MODEL VCB SERIES CHARBROILERS PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE USE GENERAL Vulcan-Hart Charbroilers are produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation, usage and maintenance of your charbroiler will result in many years of satisfactory performance. It is suggested that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided.
Floor models must clear 6" (15 cm) from combustible floors. It is recommended that the charbroiler NOT be installed next to open burners or fryers. The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. A minimum front clearance of 24" (61 cm) is required. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided.
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 right rear corner. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve must be installed in the gas line ahead of the charbroiler. Connect gas supply to the charbroiler. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions. The gas supply line must be 3/4" or larger.
OPERATION WARNING: THE CHARBROILER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING OR SERVICING THE CHARBROILER. CONTROLS Gas Valves — Regulate gas flow to the burners. Pilot Adjusting Valve — Regulates gas flow to pilot burner. Gas Pressure Regulator — Regulates gas pressure to the burners. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Turn gas shutoff valve and burner gas valves to the OFF position and wait 5 minutes. 2. Turn the gas shutoff valve to the ON position. 3.
The charbroiler is a free-vented appliance. All the products of combustion and the heat generated by the burners pass through the grates. When meat is placed on the grates, you are blocking the venting, thus causing a temperature build-up. The charbroiler, with a complete load, will operate most efficiently with burners turned down 1/3 to 1/2. DRIP PAN DO NOT allow the drip pan to overflow. Empty the drip pan when three-quarters full to reduce the possibility of spillage.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: THE CHARBROILER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING OR SERVICING THE CHARBROILER. LUBRICATION All moving parts must be checked for wear and lubricated. Contact your local Vulcan authorized servicer. All valves and controls should be lubricated with a high temperature grease by your local Vulcan authorized servicer. PILOT LIGHTS Pilot lights are to be kept clean and adjusted.
