INSTALLATION

UNPACKING
This stockpot was inspected before leaving the factory. The carrier assumes full responsibility for the safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment. Check for possible shipping damage immediately after receipt.
If the stockpot is found to be damaged, complete the following steps:

  1. Carrier must be notified within 5 business days of receipt.
  2. Carrier’s local terminal must be notified immediately upon discovery (note time, date, and who was spoken to), and follow up and confirm with written or electronic communication.
  3. All original packing materials must be kept for inspection purposes.
  4. The stockpot cannot have been moved, installed, or modified.

Remove all packing material and protective plastic from the surfaces of the unit.
Before installing, verify that the type of gas (natural or propane) and the clearance dimensions agree with the specification s on the rating plate which is located at the back of the stockpot.

LOCATION
The installation location must be kept free and clear of combustibles. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. DO NOT install the stockpot adjacent to open burners or fryers.
Sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the amount of air removed by any ventilating system and for combustion of the gas burners. Do not obstruct the air flow into and around the appliance. Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases through and above the stockpot top grate. Position the stockpot in its final location.
Check that there are sufficient clearances to service the stockpot and to make the required gas supply connection(s). Provide 24″ clearance at the front for cleaning, maintenance, service and proper operation.

Minimum Clearance| Combustible Construction| Non-Combustible Construction
---|---|---
Rear| 24”| 4”
Sides| 18”| 0”

  3. NFPA Standard # 96 Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment, latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

In Canada:

  1. Local codes.
  2. CAN/CSA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation (latest edition)
  3. CAN/CSA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code (latest edition), available from the Canadian Gas Association, 178 Rexdale Blvd., Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada M9W 1R3

LEG INSTALLATION
WARNING
The stockpot range is shipped without the legs attached. The stockpot range must not be operated without the legs attached to the unit.

  1. Remove cast iron grate and burners from chassis.

  2. Turn chassis upside down and locate the leg plate to alight the four screw holes (Fig. 1).

  3. Screw legs plate with fours crews on the bottom until tight (Fig. 2). Use a pipe or strap wrench with a towel (so as not to scratch leg) if needed to firmly tighten legs.

  4. Continue process until all legs are installed. Single stockpots will have four legs and double stockpots will have six legs.

  5. Return stockpot to upright position; reinstall burners and grates.

EG ORIENTATION

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION
Gas regulator pressure is preset at 5” Water Column (W.C.) f or natural gas, and 10” W.C.
for propane gas. Minor adjustments may be required based on site specific gas pressure.
Install the regulator as close to the stockpot on the gas supply line as possible. Make sure that the arrow on the underside of the regulator is oriented in the direction of gas flow to the stockpot (Fig. 3) and the regulator is positioned with the vent plug and adjustment screw upright (Fig. 4).

The minimum supply pressure (upstream of the regulator) should be 7 -9” W .C. f or natural gas and 11-12” W.C. for propane gas. At no time should the hotplate be connected to supply pressure greater than ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or 14” W.C.
LEVELING
The Stockpot Range is equipped with legs. Turn the feet at the bottom of the leg s in or out to level the Stockpot Range in the final installed location.
VENTILATION HOOD
The stock pot should be installed under a suitable ventilation hood. For safe operation and proper ventilation, keep the space between the stockpot and vent hood free from any obstructions.

GAS CONNECTION
The data plate on the rear of the stockpot indicates the type of gas your u nit is equipped to burn. DO NOT connect to any other gas type.
NOTICE
Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of propane gases.
Purge the supply line to clean out any dust, dirt, or any foreign matter before connecting the line to the unit.
Codes require that a gas shut-off valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the stockpot.
The gas supply line must be at least the equivalent of ¾” iron pipe.
A pressure regulator is supplied and must be installed outside of the broiler when making the gas supply connection. Standard orifices are set for 5″WC (Water Column) for Natural Gas — 10″WC (Water Column) for Propane. Use the/8” pipe tap on the burner manifold for checking pressure. Make sure the gas piping is clean and free of 1 obstructions, dirt, and piping compound.
An adequate gas supply is necessary. Undersized or low pressure lines will restrict the volume of gas required for satisfactory performance. A minimum supply pressure of 7″ W.C. for natural gas and 11″ W.C. for propane gas is recommended. With all units operating simultaneously, the manifold pressure on all units should not show any appreciable drop.
When testing the gas supply piping system, if test pressures exceed ½ psig (3.45 kPa), the stockpot and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system. When test pressures are ½ psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the stockpot must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut -off valve during any pressure testing of the system.

WARNING
rior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks.
Use soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame.

OPERATION

WARNING
The stockpot range and its parts are hot. Use care when operating, cleaning or servicing the stockpot range.
CONTROLS
The burner i s in two sections, controlled by two heavy duty infinite control valves. The center “Star” section (Fig . 6) is on separate burner with an input of 40,000 BTU/hr. It is controlled by the right burner valve knob. The outer circle of the burner (Fig . 6) is  the other separate 40,000 BTU/hr input burner, controlled by the left burner valve knob. These two separate burners provide heat flexibility. With one burner off and the second burner set low, up to both burners full on, you can move from low simmer on up to 80,000 BTU/hr input.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Turn all burner valves to OFF position and wait 5 minutes.
  2. Turn gas shutoff valve ON.
  3. Light standing pilot with a lit taper (see Fig 6). Adjust pilot to ¼” high flame, if necessary, by turning pilot valve adjustin g screw (see Fig. 5) counterclockwise to increase or clockwise to decrease flame.
  4. Turn burner valve to ON position.
  5. If pilot does not light, turn main gas supply OFF and repeat steps 1 through 4.

TO COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN THE BURNERS AND PILOT LIGHTS
For complete shutdown: Turn the main gas supply valve OFF.
CLEANING
Top grate(s) may be immersed in strong commercial c leaning compound overnight. In the morning , rinse with hot water to remove any residues of cleaning compound. Thoroughly dry and apply a light coating of cooking oil to prevent rusting.
Stainless steel surfaces may be cleaned using damp cloth with mild detergent and water solution. Places where fat, grease, or food can accumulate must be cleaned regularly.
The grease drawer should be emptied regularly when cool.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
The stockpot range and its parts are hot. Use care when operating, cleaning or servicing the stockpot range.
LUBRICATION
Al l valves must be checked and lubricated periodically . At the first sign of sticking , valves should be lubricated by a trained technician using high temperature grease. Check with your service agency for details.
SERVICE AND PARTS INFORMATION
Contact the Ser vice Contractor in your area to obtain service and parts information. For a complete listing of Service and Parts depots refer to http://www.blueairinc.com/.
When calling f or service the following information should be available from the appliance serial plate: Mode l Number, Serial Number and Gas Type. T he appliance serial plate is located on the back panel.
