Installation, Operation and Care of
HGB(M) and GHCB Gas Charbroilers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
Vulcan-Hart Gas Charbroilers feature heavy-duty, cast-iron burners; input rating is 16,000 BTU/hr. per
burner. Each burner is controlled by an adjustable gas valve. Baffles suspended beneath the burners
reflect the heat upward, maintaining a cool zone under the burner. Special cast-alloy radiants are
located directly above each burner to maintain uniform temperature. Radiants are easily removed for
cleaning when cool.
Heavy-duty, cast-iron top grates (5 5/16" wide) (135 mm) are reversible to allow all or part of the cooking
grid surface to be level or sloped. Grooves, cast in the top grates, permit fat runoff and reduce flaring
when tilted toward the front.
The gas control valves can be adjusted to provide ideal sectional broiling results.

INSTALLATION
Before installing, verify that the type of gas (natural or propane) agrees with the specifications on the
data plate located behind the lower front cover, riveted to the center support of the burner box bottom
(HGB models), or between the grease pan guides, riveted to the left corner of the lower front cover
(GHCB models). Be sure the unit is built for the installation elevation.
UNPACKING
The charbroiler was carefully inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company
assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment. Immediately after
unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the charbroiler is found to be damaged after
unpacking, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 7 days of delivery.
Do not use the drawers or handles to lift or move the charbroiler.
LOCATION
The equipment area must be kept free and clear of combustible substances. A minimum 2" (51 mm) of
clearance to combustibles must be provided at the rear of all broilers; no side clearance is required for
combustibles or noncombustibles. The HGB(M) is to be installed only on noncombustible floors. The
GHCB is suitable for installation on combustible floors.
Install the charbroiler in an area that has sufficient air supply for combustion of the gas at the burners.
Provide adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber. Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the charbroiler and, wherever possible, avoid open windows next
to the sides or back. Avoid wall-type fans that create air cross currents within the room.
Legs
Legs (6-inch [152 mm] stainless steel) or casters are factory assembled onto the bottom of the
charbroiler as specified on order.
Modular Broilers
Models HGB34M, HGB50M, HGB60M and HGB71M must be installed on a noncombustible, level
counter or stand. No adjustment is provided.
When a modular broiler is installed on a counter, it must be sealed to the counter with an NSF-approved
sealant.

– 5 –
In Canada
1. Local codes.
2. CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
3. CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code.
The above are available from the Canadian Standard Association, 5060 Spectrum Way, Suite 100,
Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L4W 5N6.
Casters (Optional)
Optional casters may be obtained. Appliance will require four (4) swivel casters, two (2) of which must
be braking casters.
Appliances Mounted on Casters
Appliances mounted on casters must use a flexible connector
(not supplied by Vulcan) that complies with the Standard for
Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 •
CSA 6.16 and a quick-disconnect device that complies with
the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With
Gas Fuel, ANSI-Z21.41 • CSA 6.9. In addition, adequate
means must be provided to limit movement of the appliance
without depending on the connector and the quick-
disconnect device or its associated piping to limit appliance
movement. Attach the restraining device at the rear of the
appliance as shown in Fig. 1.
If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, turn off the
gas supply before disconnection. Reconnect this restraint
prior to turning the gas supply on and returning the aplliance
to its installation position.
Note: If the appliance is installed on casters and is moved for any reason, it is recommended that the
appliance be releveled front to back and side to side to achieve desired cooking results. If the casters
supplied are not leveling type casters, then the flooring must be adjusted or the appliance may need
to be moved to a level location of operation.
Fig. 1
Battery Installation (GHCB Only)
Since January 5, 1998, Vulcan-Hart appliances have
changed from using Stockham gas unions to Ward (Fig. 2).
If you are installing a new battery range to an existing field
appliance, the union on the existing field appliance must be
checked against the union being used on the new range.
The union manufacturer's name around the face surface of
the union nut must match. If the new range has been
shipped using a Ward union and the old appliance has
something different—i.e., Stockham—it must be replaced
with a Ward union. Failure to replace this union could result
in a gas leak.
Extra Ward unions must be ordered through an Authorized
Vulcan Parts Depot.

ASSEMBLY
Burners, radiants and top grates shipped with the
appliance will be packaged in a box within the
cabinet section of a cabinet base model. These
items will be packaged in a box and shipped in the
top of the appliance on open base and modular
models. These items must be assembled during
installation. See (Fig. 3).
GAS CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the
action of liquefied petroleum gases.
The gas inlet location for the GHCB broiler is located at the middle rear of the broiler. The gas inlet
location for the HGB broiler is in the rear, offset to the left side of the broiler. Codes require that a gas
shutoff valve (not included) be installed in the gas line ahead of the charbroiler. The gas supply line must
be 11/4" (32 mm) NPT (inside diameter). Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt and
piping compound.
WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS.
USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.
After piping has been checked for leaks, fully purge gas pipes to remove air.
GAS PRESSURES AND ORIFICES
The standard orifices are set at 6" W.C. (Water Column) pressure for natural gas and 10" W.C. (Water
Column) pressure for propane.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM
When test pressures exceed 1/2psig (3.45 kPa), the charbroiler and an individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When test pressures are 1/2psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the charbroiler must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual shutoff valve.
Fig. 3

LEVELING THE CHARBROILER
Once gas connections have been made, place a spirit level on top of the charbroiler. Adjust the legs
to make sure that the charbroiler is level front to back and side to side in the final installed position.
No adjustment is required for modular broilers.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
The charbroiler must be located under a hood that has an adequate connection to an exhaust duct. The
hood must extend 6" (152 mm) beyond charbroiler sides.
Adequate ventilation must be provided and must comply with NFPA Standard #96 (latest edition) and
with local codes.
Clearance above the charbroiler should be adequate for products of combustion to be removed
efficiently. An 18" (457 mm) minimum clearance should be maintained between the flue vent and the
filters of the hood venting system.
Adequate air should be provided in the kitchen to replace air taken out by the ventilating system. This
will prevent charbroiler function from being affected by a reduced atmospheric pressure.
CLEAN BEFORE FIRST USE
Using a noncorrosive, grease-dissolving cleaner, clean the protective metal oils from all surface parts.
Follow the directions of the cleaner manufacturer. Rinse all parts thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft
clean cloth. Reseason cast-iron parts immediately to prevent rusting.
Seasoning
Lightly season the top grates and the griddle and the backsplash, if present, with a thin layer of cooking
oil. This should also be done after every cleaning.

OPERATION
WARNING: HOT PARTS CAN CAUSE BURNS. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING THE BROILER.
LIGHTING THE MANUAL GAS PILOT
Adjustment of the pilot light must be performed by a qualified Vulcan-Hart installation or service person.
The flame adjustment must be made at the time of installation.
1. Turn main gas supply ON.
2. Wait 30 seconds and, using a lighted taper, light the pilots. The pilot for each burner must be lit
(Fig. 4).
3. If pilot fails to light, turn main gas supply OFF. Wait 5 minutes and repeat.
Nightly Shutdown
Turn burner valves OFF; pilots will remain lit.
Complete Shutdown
1. Turn burner valves OFF.
2. Turn main gas supply OFF; pilots will go out.

Preheat – HGB(M) and GHCB Broilers
Turn burners fully on for 20 to 25 minutes to allow the broiler to preheat. Valves should be turned to a
lower position to maintain grid temperature between 525°F and 625°F (274°C and 330°C) for optimum
broiling.
CAUTION: Leaving the valves fully on beyond the recommended preheat time will produce grid
temperatures above 1000°F (538°C), which can cause radiants to warp.
Positioning the Top Grates
The top grates have two positions. With one side up, the grids are horizontal (flat). With the other side
up, the grates slope toward the front. Use the sloped grate for most broiling to allow the groove on each
side of the grid bars to catch the melted fat and allow it to flow to the trough in front. The grease will then
flow through an opening to the grease drawer.
Do not allow the meat being broiled to catch fire as this results in a poor flavor. Fatty meats may require
reduced temperatures to minimize flames.
Fig. 5
Fig. 6
CONTROLS (FIG. 5) – HGB(M) BROILERS
OFF — Horizontal when off.
ON — Turn valve handle counterclockwise 90 degrees so it is
vertical to open the burner gas valve completely. Adjust
the valve between OFF and ON positions to moderate the
heat.
CONTROLS (FIG. 6) – GHCB BROILERS
OFF — Turn the knob to the right.
LO — Turn the knob to the left.
HI — Turn the knob straight up to the 12-o'clock position.
The burner heat may be controlled by turning the valve knob anywhere between the OFF and LO
positions. The burner heat will be more intense between OFF and HI and less intense between HI and
LO.

CLEANING
• Keep the broiler clean.
• Clean the grate grooves with the wire brush provided.
• Empty the grease drawer frequently.
Top Grates
Clean the top grates daily on both the top and bottom surfaces with a good wire brush or burlap or other
grease-absorbing material to remove spillover, grease and so forth before it burns in. Avoid a crust on
the top of the grill: It looks unsightly and slows cooking speed (scrape off if necessary). Burn off grates
at full input after cleaning. Season grates before cooking, see Seasoning on page 8.
Burner Radiants
To prevent continuous smoking, keep the charbroiler clean. Never allow grease or fat to accumulate.
Clean burner radiants daily with a good wire brush. The radiants may be cleaned in place or removed
for a more thorough cleaning. Steel wool may be used for more stubborn spots.
Grease Trough and Drawer
Empty and clean the grease trough, and drain the drawer thoroughly at least once every day.
Exterior Surfaces
Clean all exposed surfaces of the entire charbroiler thoroughly at the end of each day. Stainless steel
may be cleaned with a damp cloth; stubborn soil may be removed with detergent and warm water.
