if the gas supply piping system

is pressure tested at pressures

exceeding 1/2 psig (3.45kPa) ,

the griddle must be isolated or

disconnected from the gas pip-

ing system for the duration of

the test.

Fig. 2 Gas Supply Piping

INSTALLATION (continued)

GAS PIPE PRESSURE TESTING

IMPORTANT:

PRESSURE TESTING MUST

BE PERFORMED BY A

QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN

ONLY.

The main piping system must be capable of supplying the griddle with

sufficient volume/flow of fuel to satisfy the maximum operational input

requirements.

Make sure the supply piping system has been pressure tested before

the regulator and griddle are connected. If the system must be

re-tested, be sure the regulator is isolated by a manual shut-off valve,

in order to prevent damage to the regulator and gas griddle valves.

NOTE: The maximum inlet

pressure from the supply

piping must not exceed ½ p.s.i

(14” W.C.) Pressure above this

limit will damage the regulator

and gas valves.

Piping and connections should be leak tested using a water/soap

solution. DO NOT USE FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Equipment gas pressure (the pressure downstream of the pressure

regulator) may be tested by adapting a water column gauge to the

plugged ports on the main gas manifold. The pressure regulator

supplied with the Gas Griddle is factory set for a nominal gas pressure

of 5” w.c.

Port for measuring outlet gas

pressure is located on the

manifold. Remove the grease

drawer to gain access.

Remove the allen head plug

sealing the test port, then

connect the hose of a water

column gauge.

Be sure to remove any adapters, and to re-plug and leak check the

port before returning the griddle to service. Leak testing should be

performed using a water/soap solution. DO NOT USE FLAME TO

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Be sure to reinstall the allen

head plug at the conclusion of

testing.

GAS SUPPLY FLOW VOLUME TESTING REQUIREMENTS

While testing for adequate gas pressure, be sure all other gas

appliances that utilize the same source piping are in operation with

burners ON in order to ensure accurate operational conditions.

If flow volume in the system piping is marginal, and should other

appliances on that system not be consuming gas while testing for

pressure, the test results may be inaccurate.

INITIAL ADJUSTMENT

IMPORTANT:

PURGING AIR FROM GAS LINES

PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT

MUST BE PERFORMED BY

A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN

ONLY.

Air must be purged from the gas lines for the initial startup.

Turn the knob on the safety valve to PILOT, press and hold until a

flame can be established at the pilot burner. Repeat for each pilot.

Caution must be taken to ensure that no raw gas is present in the

surrounding area when attempting to place the Griddle into

operation.

SET GAS PRESSURE:

Turn the gas shut-off valve OFF.

Remove the plug in the gas pressure measurement tap and attach a

manometer. Turn the shut-off valve ON. Light the pilot light and turn

both gas control valves to HI.

Remove the cap from the pressure regulator. Turn the adjusting

screw clockwise to increase pressure; counter-clockwise to decrease

pressure. Adjust the gas pressure regulator for:

MUST BE PERFORMED BY

A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN

ONLY.

When finished, replace cap on regulator, turn shut-off valve OFF,

remove manometer and reinstall plug in tap. Turn shut-off valve

back ON and relight the pilot light.

PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT

The pilot flame may be adjusted at the safety valve by removing the

pilot adjusting screw cover (notice the fiber washer) and turning the

adjusting screw until the pilot flame covers ³/₈” to ¹/₂” tall section of

the thermocouple. This will ensure that the thermocouple will

energize the pilot valve and maintain the pilot flame. Remember to

replace the cover and fiber washer after adjustments are completed.

3/8“ to 1/2”

THERMOCOUPLE

To check the calibration of the thermopile, turn the main burner

control knob to OFF. Connect a millivolt meter to the TP and TP TH

connections on the red terminal block on the safety valve. The

thermocouple should generate 200mV (minimum) within 2 minutes of

the pilot flame being lit. 250 mV will provide sufficient power to open

both the pilot valve and main burner valve.

Fig. 4 Adjust pilot flame

IMPORTANT:

FLAME ADJUSTMENT

MUST BE PERFORMED BY

A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN

ONLY.

To conserve thermocouple life and reduce gas consumption, the

reading should be no more than 500 mV.

MAIN BURNER AIR/FUEL MIXTURE

LOCKING SCREW

SHUTTER

Each main burner has an adjustment shutter at the inlet end of the

burner. This collar is locked by a ¹/₄” hex head screw. Loosen the

screw and rotate the shutter to adjust the amount of combustion air

mixed with the incoming gas as it enters the main burner. Adjust the

fuel/air mixture to produce a steady, blue flame. Re-tighten the lock

INITIAL ADJUSTMENT (continued)

PREPARING THE GRIDDLE SURFACE

SEASONING STANDARD GRIDDLES

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 375ºF (191ºC).

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 re

moved.

e. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until the griddle

has a slick, clean surface.

IMPORTANT: SCRATCHES

WILL DAMAGE THE CHROME-

SURFACE!

DO NOT use anything on a

Chrome griddle that could

scratch the surface.

DO NOT clean chrome surface

with griddle bricks, pumice

stone or abrasive cleansers.

CHROME PLATED GRIDDLES

Because the microscopic pores in the griddle surface are filled by the

chrome plating, no seasoning of the griddle surface is required.

a. Thoroughly clean the griddle surface using a soft clean cloth and

a small amount of mild detergent.

b. Rinse and dry thoroughly after cleaning.

c. The griddle is now ready to use.
