2.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the tilting braising
pan is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within
15 days of delivery.
Before installing, verify that the type of gas supply (natural or propane) and electrical
service agree with the specifications on the rating plate located on the left side panel as
you face the front of the braising pan. If the supply and equipment requirements do not
agree, contact your dealer or Blodgett
LOCATION
The equipment must be kept free and clear of combustible substances. The tilting
braising pan, when installed, must have minimum clearance from combustible and non-
combustible construction of 3" (76 mm) from sides and 6" (152 mm) from the rear. The
tilting braising pan is intended for use on non-combustible floors.
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper
operation. A minimum front clearance of 36" (914 mm) is required.
The tilting braising pan must be installed so that the flow of combustion and ventilation
air will not be obstructed. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion
chamber must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room
suitable for the amount of combustion gas feeding the braising pan burners.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the tilting braising pan, and wherever possible,
avoid open windows next to the tilting braising pan. Avoid wall-type fans which create
air cross currents within the room.
INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS
Gas installation to conform to local codes or in absence of local codes to National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition. In Canada, installation to be in accordance with
CAN/CGA- B149.1 (NAT) or B149.2 (LP) installation codes and/or local codes.
1. The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in
excess of ½ psig (3.45 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.45 kPa).
Electrical grounding must be provided in accordance with local codes, or in the absence
of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In
Canada installation must be in accordance with the CAN/CSA-C22.2, No.3 of the
Canadian Electrical Code, part 1.

FLUE CONNECTIONS
Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located on the rear of the tilting
braising pan. It is recommended that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the
building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained
from the standard for “Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest
edition), available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA, 02269.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for
your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong from this plug. (120V units only).
LEVELING AND ANCHORING
1. Set the appliance in place and level left to right and front-to-back using spirit level.
2. Mark hole locations on floor through anchoring holes provided in flanged adjustable
feet.
3. Remove appliance and drill holes in locations marked on floor and insert proper
anchoring devices (not supplied).
4. Set unit back in position and re-level left to right and front to back.
5. Bolt and anchor appliance securely to the floor.
6. Seal bolts and flanged feet with silastic or equivalent compound.

GAS CONNECTIONS
All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the
action of propane gases.
The gas inlet is located under the control panel on the left-hand side.
Connect gas supply to the tilting braising pan. The gas supply line must be at least the
equivalent of 3/4" iron pipe with an incoming pressure of approximately 7" W.C. (Water
Column) for natural gas or 11" W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas. Make sure the
pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt and piping compound.
Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the tilting
braising pan.
Natural gas and propane gas braising pans are equipped with fixed orifices and no
adjustment is necessary. Gas burner manifold is set at 3.5" W.C. (Water Column) for
natural gas, and 10" W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas.
WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Check all
connections for leaks using soapy water before use.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged
to remove air.

THERMOSTAT OFF and then ON again for restart.
5. When braising pan has reached set temperature, the red TEMPERATURE LIGHT
will go off and the burners will shut off. The burners will cycle on and off thereafter to
maintain set temperature. The red TEMPERATURE LIGHT will be on when the
burners are on and off when burners are off.
6. If gas supply is interrupted during operation, turn THERMOSTAT dial to OFF position

TILTING THE BRAISING PAN
1. DO NOT try to tilt braising pan with lid down.
2. Make sure the receiving pan is in place.
3. To tilt braising pan, push and hold TILT SWITCH in the UP mode until desired pan
position has been reached. The braising pan will empty when raised to the top tilt
position. When the braising pan is raised 5 or more, the gas supply will be tuned off
automatically. The braising pan will not operate once the pan has been tilted.
4. Food is poured through the removable strainer (Figure 2) into a food receiving pan
positioned under the lip of the pouring spout (Figure 2).
5. To lower braising pan, push and hold TILT SWITCH in the DOWN mode.
NOTE: Excessive, consecutive lifts may cause the motor to overheat and activate the
thermal overload causing the motor to shut down. Should this occur, a cooling off
time will be necessary to reset and continue the lifting operation.

pan surface. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth.
2. Clean removable strainer and receiving pan support (see Figure 2) with detergent
and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth.
3. Clean around burner air mixers and orifices (at rear of burner) if lint has
accumulated.
4. Visually ensure tube lighter ports (Figure 3) are unobstructed.
