Questions buyers ask
What do I need to hang it on a wall?
The kit has a wall bracket, 2 top hanging brackets and 2 bottom supports. The manual says to prepare 5 anchor bolts sized for your wall (not provided) and to mount the salamander level.
What gas hookup does it need?
Natural gas through a 3/4" NPT rear connection, 30,000 BTU/H. The manual lists a 4.0" W.C. manifold pressure and rates it at 36,000 BTU/H total, so ask us to confirm before you size the gas line. Fit a shut-off valve upstream and use metal gas pipe.
Can it run on propane?
The spec sheet lists easy conversion from natural gas to propane, but no conversion kit is listed as included. Have a qualified technician do it and call us for the parts.
Does it need to preheat?
No. The infrared burner heats up instantly, and the standby pilot makes it quick to light. Raise or lower the rack to brown, melt or finish food.
How much clearance does it need?
The manual asks for 10 cm (about 4") from side walls and 6" at the rear for servicing, non-combustible surroundings, and a well-ventilated area, ideally under a hood.
How do I clean it?
Pull out the oil tray and rack daily and wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap. The manual warns against water hoses, steam cleaners, wire brushes and acid or alkaline cleaners, and asks for heat-resistant grease on the lift.
What does the warranty cover?
USR Brands covers Cookline gas and electric cooking equipment for 1 year parts and labor from delivery, in the contiguous US. Food truck and farm installs are parts only, residential use is not covered; gas connections must be made by a qualified installer.
Can it ship to California or other western states?
The Cookline warranty states that USR Brands cannot ship to or guarantee its products in CA, OR, WA, MT, WY or UT. Call us before ordering for one of those states.
