UNPACKING
Check that the container is upright. Use outward prying no hammering to remove the carton. Check the
Tandoor for visible damage. If such damage has occurred, do not refuse shipment, but contact the carrier and file the
appropriate freight claims. Do not contact the factory, as responsibility for shipping damage is between the carrier and
dealer or end user. Remove, unwrap, and temporarily set aside any accessories shipped with the Tandoor.
POSITIONING
Do not push against the edges of the unit in an attempt to adjust its position. Lift it slightly and place it where it
is to be installed. Although all metal parts are deburred during manufacture
protective gloves are recommended when
ever positioning or moving unit
. Accidents could occur if the Tandoor should move suddenly while being pushed into
position by hand. Pushing a unit (rather than using a lift jack) also increases the probability of bending the leg spindles
or the internal coupling connectors.
LEVELING
A carpenter’s spirit level should be placed across the top of the Tandoor and the unit leveled both front to back
and side to side. If it’s not level, burner combustion may be erratic or the unit may not function efficiently. If the floor is
level and smooth, level the unit with the screw thread of the legs; adjust the high corner and measure with the spirit
level. If the floor is uneven or has a decided slope, level the unit with a metal shim; the adjustment required may
exceed the thread available in the leg, and / or a castered line-up may not return exactly to the same position after
being moved, requiring re-leveling after each move.
GAS CONNECTION
The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the appliance. The Tandoor
uses a 3/4” NPT inlet, however, the gas supply lines must be sized to accommodate all the gas fired equipment that
may be connected to that supply. Consult your contractor, gas company, supplier, or other recognized authorities.
Sealant on all pipe joints must be resistive to propane gas. When using thread compound on gas piping, use very small
amounts and only on male threads. Use a pipe thread compound that is not affected by the chemical action of L.P.
gases. Do not apply pipe thread compound to the first two pipe threads. This will prevent clogging of the burner ori-
fices and the control valve.
MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE
Supply shut-off valve must be installed on the gas service line ahead of the appliance in the gas stream to shut
off supply in the event of an emergency.
