width is dependent on the actual model number.

•The Sides, Bottom, and Rear walls are constructed of double wall stainless

steel, which allows closer installation to combustible surfaces.

•The stainless steel drop-down door keeps the controls cool and the control

area clean.

•The griddle surface is made of 1” thick, highly polished steel to reduce hot

and cold spots, recovery problems, warping, and ensure even heat to the

edges of the griddle.

INSTALLATION

DANGER: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED AT THE

TERMINAL PROVIDED. FAILURE TO GROUND THE

APPLIANCE COULD RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION AND

DEATH.

WARNING: INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT MUST BE DONE BY

PERSONNEL QUALIFIED TO WORK WITH ELECTRICITY

AND PLUMBING. IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE

INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND/OR DAMAGE TO

EQUIPMENT. UNIT MUST BE INSTALLED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE CODES.

NOTICE: The data plate is located inside the control compartment of

each griddle. The griddle voltage, serial number, gas

specifications, and clearance specifications are on the data

plate. This information should be carefully read and

understood before proceeding with the installation.

NOTICE: The installation of any components such as a vent hood,

grease extractors, fire extinguisher systems, must

conform to their applicable National, State and locally

recognized installation standards.

5.1 Electrical Connection

The griddle is supplied with a cord and plug. The receptacle is not provided with

the griddle.

Follow the receptacle manufacturer’s instructions when connecting the receptacle

to the power supply.

5.2 Gas Connection

This griddle is manufactured for use with the type of gas indicted on the nameplate.

Contact the factory if your type of gas does not match the nameplate data.

All gas connectors must be in accordance with local codes and comply with

the National Fuel Federal Gas Codes ANSI Z223.1 latest edition.

This appliance should be installed with a separate gas valve in the gas line

ahead of the unit. Use a 3/4 inch or larger gas supply line.

Remove the 5/16 inch nuts securing the rear of burners. These nuts are for

securing the main burners during transportation only. The rear burner shield

must be removed to gain access to the nuts.

A pressure regulator for the type of gas specified is supplied with each

appliance.

This regulator must be installed in the gas supply line. (Note the direction

of the gas flow arrow.) The pressure in the manifold of the appliance should

be tested with a manometer and the regulator adjusted for proper pressure with

the appliance operating at full fire. A 1/8 inch NPT tap is provided in the

manifold for connecting a manometer.

INSTALLATION CONT’D

Correct manifold pressures are:

5 inches water column for natural gas

10 inches water column for propane

When replacing the plug in the manifold, a pipe joint compound or sealant

should be used that is resistant to the action of liquid petroleum gas.

Initial adjustments are the responsibility of the installer and are not chargeable

to Star Manufacturing International.

After the griddle is in its final position, adjust the legs to create 1/8 inch slant

from back to front. This will allow the grease to run into the grease gutter and

provide the proper combustion air for the burners.
