I. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. INSTALLATION:

(A) INSTALLATION of this broiler must conform with the latest edition of National Fuel Gas Code and/or local codes, (the American National Standard 2-223.1 in USA and CAN/CGA-B149.1 or 2 Installation Code in Canada). In Europe, this appliance must be installed in conformity with current regulations and used only in a well ventilated space.
(B) In MASSACHUSETTS, All gas products must be installed by a "Massachusetts" licensed plumber or gas fitter. Ventilation hoods must be installed in accordance with NFPA-96, current edition, with interlocks as described in that standard.

2. ACCEPTABLE CLEARANCES:

(A) USA and Canada.

Due to intense heat generated by radiation, in USA and Canada these broilers should be installed in noncombustible locations only, including the areas above the grate level.

MINIMUM CLEARANCE FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION:

Right Side Left Side Back

50mm(2") 50mm (2") 50mm (2")

(B) European Community Countries

Minimum clearance from: Right Side Left Side Back Floor

Combustible construction 250mm 250mm 250mm 150mm

Non-combustible construction 50mm 50mm 50mm 100mm

3. GAS CONNECTION:

The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed at the gas inlet of each broiler unless required otherwise by local codes. Each regulator is adjusted to yield a manifold pressure of 3.5" water column (9 mbar) for natural gas or 10" water column (25 m bar) for propane gas. Units for propane gas are available for use in USA and Canada only.

Recommended minimum gas supply lines are listed below:

All Tuff Charbroiler Models 3/4" (19 mm)

NOTE: A shut off valve in a readily accessible location must be installed on the gas supply line before connecting it to the unit.

For units using propane gas supply In USA and Canada lines less than '1/2" (12.7 mm) Inside diameter should not be used.

On the Tuff Charbroiler series, the gas connection is located on the right rear of the unit.

BE SURE TO CAPWHICHEVER SIDE IS NOT CONNECTED.

When making gas pipe connections, pipe joint compound resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases should be used. The broiler and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressure in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kpa).

The broiler must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kpa).

4. BURNERS

Check to see that air mixer caps on the front of all burners are adjusted and tightened, allowing half the opening to show.

To install the burners:

(A) Place the front venturi end of the burner into the valve assembly by fitting the center hole of the air mixer cap over the brass orifice.

(B) Drop the two ends of the burners over the burner support pins in the front and back of the chamber.

5. RADIANTS:

Mount the "A" shaped radiants over the burners with each end mounted on special supports on the front and rear of the chamber. A radiant should be mounted over each burner assembly..

6. TOP GRATES

Place a grate over each of the radiants. For normal operation the pointed side of the grate is facing up. For use with foods that require extra, support, the flat side may be used.

7. LIGHTING:

Each burner has a standing pilot burner which must be lit before the burners can be lit. To light the pilot burners:

(A) Turn all broiler valves to off position
(B) Open main gas shut off valve (provided by customer).
(C) Press. turn counterclockwise and hold the burner control knob to the pilot burner ignition position.
(D). Using a lit taper, light the pilot burner
(E) Release the knob after 30 seconds. Pilot burner should stay lit. If the pilot burner does not remain lit, wait for 5 minutes and repeat steps C and D. Hold the knob pressed longer before releasing.
(F) With a screwdriver adjust the pilot burner flame to about 1/2" (12.7 mm). Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to reduce or counterclockwise to increase the pilot burner flame.
(G) Each burner may now be adjusted to the desired flame size by turning the individual burner valve knob.
(H) Turn the knob to the pilot burner ignition position to shut down the main burner.
(I) Turn the knob to off position to shut down the pilot burners.

NOTE: WAIT FIVE MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RELIGHT THE PILOT BURNERS.

8. DRIP PAN

A drip pan is provided below the burners to hold any grease that drips down past the radiants while broiling. An additional drip drawer is provided in the front right corner of the drip pan to collect the grease from the grease drain in the front which in turn drains into the grease collector. Water is usually added to the drip pan to reduce flare-up and flash back. The grease drip will extinguish as it hits the water.

9. PLANCHA PLATE (OPTIONAL)

Plancha plates should not cover more than 50% of the BROILING area. Each Plancha Plate fits on top of two grates. It is not necessary to remove the top grates and radiants before installing the plancha plate.

10. ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(A) Keep the area around the broiler free and clear of combustible materials.
(B) The provision of an adequate air supply to your broiler is essential. Provide for sufficient outside air to enter the broiling area and assure that this air flow is not obstructed.
(C) Air enters the burner area from the front of your broiler. Assure that this area is kept open and unobstructed.
(D) Servicing is accomplished through the front and top of the broiler. Assure that this area is kept unobstructed for proper servicing and operation.

11. INSTALLATION WITH CASTERS:

(A) Install the casters with wheel brakes on the front of the appliance. Casters are mounted at the factory standard and shipped with mounted.
(B) Installation should be made with a connector that complies with the latest edition of the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances and a quick disconnect device that complies with the latest edition of the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for use with gas fuel. Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and any quick disconnect device or its associated piping to limit the appliance movement.
(C) The restraint should be attached to the center of the back about 1/2" (12.7mm) from the bottom.
(D) If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, the restraint should be reconnected after the appliance has been returned to its originally installed position.

II. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. LIGHTING PROCEDURES

See Section 7 of INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

2. BROILING

BROILER TOP GRATE MUST BE HOT ENOUGH TO MAKE BLACK CHAR-MARKS WHEN STARTING TO BROIL.

Adequate preheating time is necessary for the food to release from the broiler and to cook properly. Allow the unit to preheat for 20-25 minutes before broiling.

(A) Do not press the juice out of the meat because that will cause dry products.
(B) After broiling, allow the meat to sit covered on a heated platter for 2-5 minutes before cutting. This will allow the juices to "settle" and the product will be more moist.
(C) Do not use forks or other sharp objects to poke holes in the meat. Do not cut the meat as it cooks.
(D) Thick pieces of meat require a longer broiling time with less flare-up. Reduce flare up by trimming excess fat for a longer broil time without burning.
(E) Keep the unit clean. Food caught between the grate will not allow hot air to rise around the product. This will result in uneven heating and increase the cooking time.

III. MAINTENANCE

1. SERVICE

Shut off the main gas supply before attempting any maintenance on the unit. If required, contact the factory or a local service company to obtain qualified maintenance and repairs.

2. CARE AND CLEANING

(A) The top grates should be cleaned using a stiff wire brush. If this is done daily, the accumulation of food and fat caught in the grates and work necessary to keep them clean will be reduced. Periodically, they should be turned over and brushed and then put back. In the event that an extra amount of fat is accumulated on the top, due to use of low heat, we recommend turning up the flame of this section for about an hour, which will burn off much of the fat and residue and the brushing operation will be easier. Under no circumstances should the grates be placed in a dishwasher. Soap, water, or any detergents should never be used on the cast Iron grates.

(B) Inner panels - These are made of aluminized steel. Use hot soapy water and soft nylon scrub pads to clean the surfaces.

(C) Drip pan and grease collector - Drip pan and collector should be cleaned daily or more often if necessary.

CAUTION:

(A) Clean the unit only when it is cold.
(B) Always rub with the grains when cleaning.
(C) Do not use abrasive pads for cleaning.
(D) Do not use caustic cleaning compounds on aluminized surfaces.

3. CLEANING TOOLS

Contact Champion Tuff Grills for more information on recommended cleaning tools.
