Operating Instructions

Operating the Hot Plate - Pilot Lighting Instructions

Before operating hot plate, it should be checked to see that it is sitting level. Adjust the feet to level the hot

plate. Be sure the catch tray has been properly placed.

The pilot lights on the appliance have been set at the factory. Each burner has a pilot light.

1. Make sure all knobs are in the “OFF” position.

2. The main gas valve should be “CLOSED/OFF” for five (5) minutes prior to lighting pilots to clear

any existing gas. (Main gas valve is supplied by others.)

3. Turn “ON/OPEN” the main gas valve to the unit.

4. Light and hold an ignition source (match) at the pilots. When the flame is established, remove

theignition source. Repeat this step for each burner as each burner has its own individual pilot. The

pilot can be reached through the holes in the front of the unit.

5, Adjust the pilot valve, make sure the pilot flame at 1/2 inch height.

6, Turn each burner knob “ON”. If the burners do not ignite promptly, turn the knobs “OFF”. From the opening

in the front panel, use a screwdriver and turn the pilot valve screw counterclockwise which

willincrease the flame height and repeat step 4.

The pilot flame should be as small as possible but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition of

theburners when the knobs are turned to “ON”. The holes located in the front panel are pilot valve

adjustments. Use a screwdriver to turn the valve to adjust the flame height to your desired level.

Igniting the Burner

To ignite the burner, turn knob to the “ON” position. Then back off to the desired flame level. The range of

adjustment is virtually infinite between “ON” and “OFF”.

The space between the legs at the bottom admits combustion air. DO NOT BLOCK THIS SPACE.

All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the valve to the desired flame height is all that is

required to put the unit in service.

Do not permit fans to blow directly at the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to the unit’s sides

or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within a room.

It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the amount of

airremoved by any ventilating system. Otherwise, a subnormal atmospheric pressure will occur, affecting

operation and causing undesirable working conditions.

A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room or area in

which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft conditions.

NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the balance of gas, volume and air supply to each burner. This

must be done by an authorized service technician.

Shutdown burner

To turn 'OFF' the appliance completely, turn the gas control knob completely clockwise to the 'O' position, the

pilot burner will extinguish.
