Frequently Asked Questions - HDG3630G Wells

How to light the pilot?
First, make sure there is no gas odor. Turn all control knobs to OFF. Open the gas shut-off valve. Use a long match or a fireplace lighter to light the pilot accessible through the front panel. Never use a cigarette lighter. If ignition fails, wait 5 minutes to purge air before retrying.
What to do if I smell gas?
Do not attempt to light the appliance. Do not touch any electrical switches. Do not use the phone in the building. Immediately close the main gas shut-off valve and leave the premises. Call the gas company from a neighboring phone. Follow their instructions exactly.
How to clean the griddle surface?
After use, pour a little water on the hot surface to boil off residues. Scrape with a pumice stone or griddle scraper. Wipe with a damp cloth. Never use metal scouring pads. For seasoning, heat to 191°C (375°F), apply a thin layer of cooking oil, let it smoke for 2 minutes, then wipe clean.
How to adjust the burner flame?
Remove the control knobs and the front panel. Light a burner. Loosen the locking screw on the air shutter. Turn the shutter until the flame is mainly blue. Tighten the screw. Entrust any adjustment to a qualified technician.
What type of gas to use for this model?
This model HDG3630G can operate on natural gas (manifold pressure 5.0 in WC) or propane/LPG (manifold pressure 10 in WC). Check the nameplate to confirm the gas type. For conversion, contact your authorized Wells distributor.
Can I use this appliance outdoors?
No, this appliance is designed exclusively for commercial indoor use. It must be installed in a properly ventilated room, on a solid non-combustible surface. It is not approved for outdoor use.
How to maintain the burners?
If a burner does not produce a flame or has an irregular flame, it must be cleaned. Close the gas shut-off valve, remove the knobs and front panel, then remove the burners. Wash them with hot water using a mild detergent and a bristle brush. Rinse, dry completely, then reassemble. Never submerge the griddle cabinet.
What is the power of the appliance?
The total energy consumption of the model HDG3630G is 90,000 BTU/h. Each dual burner is individually controlled for even heat distribution.
What to do if a burner does not ignite?
First check that the gas shut-off valve is open and the pilot is lit. If the pilot is out, turn off the gas, purge for 5 minutes, then relight. If the problem persists, the burner may be wet: remove it and dry it completely. For any other malfunction, contact a Wells authorized technician.

Wells HDG3630G - IMPORTANT: - 1

WARNING: FIRE HAZARD

This griddle is supplied with a gas pressure regulator. Failure to properly install the supplied regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.

Flow arrow stamped on body of regulator must point toward the griddle.

Vent hole must point UP.

IMPORTANT:

Verify fuel gas type. If the available fuel does not match the nameplate specification, exchange the hotplate for the correct type.

IMPORTANT:

The appliance and its individual manual shutoff valve must be disconnected from supply system piping during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).

Also, the appliance 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 at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).

INSTALLING THE GAS GRIDDLE

Refer to the nameplate. Verify the fuel type and pressure, which must match the nameplate specifications. Connecting the hotplate to the wrong fuel type and/or pressure will compromise the safety and/or performance of the appliance.

BE SURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.

The griddle must be placed in its final operational position and leveled front-to-back and side-to-side, with a spirit level, prior to beginning the gas piping installation. Re-check the level of the unit at the conclusion of the gas piping installation.

Each gas griddle is supplied with a separate gas pressure regulator, which must be installed on the manifold pipe protruding from the rear of the griddle. Ensure that the regulator is installed such that the flow arrow stamped on the body of the regulator points toward the griddle. Failure to properly install the supplied regulator will result in an extremely hazardous condition.

A moisture trap (drip leg) consisting of a tee, 4^ nipple pointing down, and cap must be installed upstream of the gas pressure regulator.

A manual gas shut-off valve may be required by local codes and is, in any case, strongly recommended. The shut-off valve must be installed between the gas supply piping and the gas pressure regulator.

Replace the front panel and all knobs before returning the unit to service.

ADJUST BURNER FLAME:

Remove all burner control knobs, then remove the front panel.

Turn an individual burner on.

Loosen the locking screw on the shutter.

OPERATION

Wells HDG3630G - OPERATION - 1

WARNING: FIRE HAZARD

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

DO NOT try to light any appliance.
DO NOT touch any electrical switch
DO NOT use any telephone in your building.

In the event a gas odor is detected, shut down the unit at the main gas shutoff valve and contact your local gas supplier from a neighboring location.

Follow the instructions received from the gas supplier immediately and exactly.

GENERAL OPERATIONAL NOTES

Carefully read the description of the griddle operation on the specification sheet.

Do NOT use this appliance if it has been submerged in water. Call a qualified technician to examine the appliance and to service or replace any component which has been submerged. Burners which have been allowed to become wet must be thoroughly dried before use.

For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it may take several minutes to light the pilot while air in the piping and manifolds is purged.

The burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Never use tools to turn the control knob. If the knob will not turn by hand, DO NOT attempt to force or repair it. Contact your Authorized Wells

Service Agency for repairs. Forced or improperly repaired valves pose the risk of fire and/or explosion.

Make sure burners, pilot burner and grease tray are properly installed before attempting to operate.

LIGHTING THE PILOT FLAME

Before lighting the pilot light, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell near floor level because some gas is heavier than air and will settle to the floor.

For initial startup, and any time the gas supply has been shut-off, it may take several minutes to light the pilot while air in the piping and manifolds is purged.

The pilot light must be lighted by hand:

Turn all control knobs to the full OFF position.

The pilot is located adjacent to one leg of the burner, and is accessible through the front panel opening.

Be sure the gas shut-off valve is ON and the appliance has had time for the air to be purged from the lines. Attempt to light the pilot every 15 seconds after the gas valve is turned on.

Light the pilot with a long match or fireplace lighter.

DO NOT use a cigarette lighter.

SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS

Turn all burner knobs to OFF.

Turn all pilots OFF.

Turn the main gas supply OFF.

OPERATION

SEASON THE GRIDDLE SURFACE

As manufactured, the steel surface of your Wells griddle has microscopic pores. It is important to fill these pores with oil in order to provide a hard, non-stick cooking surface.

a. Preheat the griddle surface to 375^ (191^)
b. Spread a light film of cooking oil over the entire griddle surface
c. Allow the oil film to cook in for approximately 2 minutes, or until it smokes.
d. Wipe the griddle surface with a clean damp cloth until all oil is removed.
e. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until the griddle has a slick, clean surface.

OPERATION

Inspect the unit for cleanliness before use. Clean as necessary: See Cleaning Instructions, page 10.

Be sure the pilot light is lit before operation. See Lighting the Pilot Light, page 8.

The burner control knobs must be turned by hand only. Never use tools to turn the control knob.

The control used in this gas griddle provides a continuous range of settings from OFF to ON.

Light the burner by turning the control knob to the ON position until fire forms completely in all sections of the burner. Set the control knob to the desired position. The setting can be readjusted at any time.
