OPERATION
WARNING: THE BROILER AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. BE CAREFUL WHEN OPERATING,
CLEANING OR SERVICING THE BROILER.
CONTROLS
Gas Valves — Regulate gas flow to the burners.
Elevator Lever — Use elevator lever on the right to position the grill in relation to the burner heat.
Grease Drawer — Collects grease from broiled food.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn the gas shut-off and gas valves to the OFF position and wait 5 minutes.
2. Turn gas shut-off valve ON and light two pilots with a lit taper. Adjust until the pilot flame is
1
/4"
(6 mm) high. The flame should have a slight yellow tip. Pilot valves are behind the plug button
on the right panel.
3. The only adjustment needed may be the air shutter located at the front face of the burner where
the orifice enters the venturi. Adjust all traces of yellow out of the burner flame.
4. To relight, follow steps 1-3.
GRID POSITION AND GAS SETTING
Each operator will find the optimum grid position and gas setting for various products; however, it is
recommended that gas input be reduced first when lower grid temperatures are desired. Further
reduction in grid temperatures, if necessary, can then be adjusted by lowering the grid position.
PREHEATING
Allow broiler to preheat approximately 30 minutes with burners full-on. Rub grates with grease before
using. The excess grease will run forward and drip onto the front grease drawer.

3. When the burner lights, turn the knob to the right (clockwise) until the flame is the desired height.
OPERATING VIR36 SERIES MODELS

SHUTDOWN
1. For complete shutdown, turn gas and shut-off valves to the OFF position.
