NOTE: ALL GAS FITTING MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.
1.
Waldorf Gas Griddle Toasters do not require an electrical connection, as they function totally on the
gas supply only.
2.
It is essential that the gas supply is correct for the appliance to be installed and that adequate
supply pressure and volume are available. The following checks should therefore be made before
installation:
a. Gas Type the appliance has been supplied for, is
shown on coloured stickers located above the gas
connection and next to the rating plate. Check that
this is correct for the gas supply the appliance is being
installed for. The gas conversion procedure is detailed
in this manual.
b. Supply Pressure required for this appliance is shown
in the “Specifications” Section of this manual. Check
the gas supply to ensure adequate supply pressure
exists.
c. Input Rate of this appliance is stated on the Rating
Plate and in the “Specifications” section of this
manual. The input rate should be checked against the
available supply line capacity. Particular note
should be taken if the appliance is being added
to an existing installation.
NOTE: It is important that adequately sized piping runs directly to the connection joint on the
griddle toaster with as few tees and elbows as possible to give maximum supply volume.
3.
Fit the gas regulator supplied, into the gas supply line as close to the appliance as possible.
NOTE: The gas pressure regulator provided with this appliance is convertible between Natural Gas
and LPG as per the ‘Gas Conversion Section’ in this manual.
Ensure the regulator is converted to the correct gas type that the appliance will operate on.
The regulator outlet pressure is fixed ex-factory for the gas type that the
regulator is converted to and it is NOT to be adjusted.

4.
Correctly locate the griddle toaster into its final operating position and using a spirit level, adjust the
legs so that the appliance is level and at the correct height.
5.
Connect the gas supply to the appliance. A suitable jointing compound which resists the breakdown
action of LPG must be used on every gas line connection, unless compression fittings are used.

Check all gas connections for leakages using soapy water or other gas detecting equipment.
