Instructions for turning on the Broiler:
The two pilots are located under the front panel on the right and left hand sides.
1. Make sure that the Main Manual Shut-Off Valve is in the ON position and the
Manual Burner Valve(s) are in the OFF position.
2. Turn Manual Pilot Valve ON and use a match or long lighter to ignite the pilots.
3. Once the pilot(s) is lit turn on the manual burner valves.
4. If the fl ame fails to light or goes out, turn off the manual burner valves and the pilot
valves. Wait for 5 minutes. Repeat from step 2.
If necessary, a few briquettes may be removed from the hearth for easy access to the pilot; they
should be replaced before operating the broiler.
If the pilot fl ame is too short or too long, remove the Manual Pilot Valve handle and adjust the slotted
screw in the valve stem for a suitable fl ame.
Preheating: The Model 25 broiler has a single Manual Burner Valve which controls all six main burn-
ers. Models 31 and 41 have two Manual Burner Valves, one for each side of the broiler. Preheat the
broiler with the Manual Burner Valves wide open for a short period, until a dull red glow is visible on the
lower surface of the Barbriq. After preheating, reduce valve settings to the lowest fl ame required to
maintain the glow on each side of the broiler hearth - not necessarily in the center. DO NOT broil with
the Manual Burner Valves wide open, or with excessively bright Barbriqs on the hearth. Maximum
valve setting is used only for preheating.
Flaretrol: Turn the Flaretrol switch ON when an excessive grease fl are develops. When there is no
fl are, turn it OFF. Continuous operation of the Flaretrol will not damage the motor, but it will needlessly
lower the temperature at the grill.
If
excessive fl are develops which cannot be adequately controlled by the Flaretrol, move meat to
another area of the grill. Do not overload the grill; leave suffi cient space between the pieces of meat to
allow the meat to be shifted and smoke to exit. If cooking during a power failure, the Flaretrol function
is lost; therefore take special care to avoid excessive grease fl are-up.
During heavy periods of broiling, reduce the valve settings to compensate for increased heat from
grease fl are.
To Shut Off: Turn the Manual Burner Valve(s) to the OFF position. Turn the Manual Pilot Valve to
the OFF position.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT: Disconnect power supply prior to cleaning or servicing.
Depending on the amount of use, periodic cleaning is necessary. Turn the Main Knobs on high for
30 minutes. Turn the broiler off and wait for a complete cool down. Brush or vacuum the heart. Be
sure that the pilot areas are clean and clear of ash and burned matches. Because of the incinerator
action of the hearth, grease does not normally accumulate under the grate; however, periodically the
Barbriqs or ceramic rods should be removed and the hearth cleaned, either by brushing or vacuum-
ing. Wipe grease splatter from the top and adjacent surfaces.
The Flaretrol motor features permanently lubricated ball bearings and requires no routine
oiling.
Keep the area around the broiler free of combustible materials. Since the combustion and
Flaretrol air is taken from the front of the unit, do not obstruct the free fl ow of air to the front.
CAUTION: On the counter models, do not store cooking utensils, mitts, towels or anything
combustible between broiler and counter top. Restricting air fl ow, particularly on counter models,can
cause over-heating and premature motor failure.
CAUTION: On fl oor models, do not store combustible materials such as paper, fabric,
cooking oils, or any other fl ammable liquids in fl oor models’ stainless steel storage shelf.
Do not obstruct the fresh air supply into the room or the ventilating system. For maintenance
and service, refer to your local gas service or utility company.
