GLOBE GCB24G-RK (01) PDF Document

Always install the GLOBE GCB24G-RK in a work area with adequate light and space. Only operate on a solid, level, nonskid surface that is nonflammable and away from sinks and water hazards. Never bypass, alter, or modify the GLOBE GCB24G-RK in any way from its original condition.

The GLOBE GCB24G-RK must be installed on noncombustible surfaces only. The required clearances are 6 inches on the sides, 6 inches at the rear, and 4 inches from the floor.

Screw the legs into the permanently fastened nuts on the four corners of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK and tighten by hand. Legs must be installed to adequately provide proper ventilation to the unit.

Level the GLOBE GCB24G-RK by adjusting the four feet and tightening them securely. Do not slide the unit with legs mounted; lift it if necessary to move the unit.

Do not use an open flame to check for leaks on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK. Always check all gas piping for leaks with a soap and water solution before operating the unit.

The GLOBE GCB24G-RK must be installed under proper ventilation as required per local code. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air, under the unit by the legs or behind the unit by the flue. Do not place objects between the bottom of the unit and the countertop.

Thoroughly wash the exterior of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK with a mild detergent or soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners. When the unit is first heated, it will smoke until oil and dust are burned off; leave the burners on for about one hour at maximum for this purpose.

First, make sure all knobs on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK are in the OFF position. The main gas valve should be closed for five minutes prior to lighting pilots to clear any existing gas. Turn the main gas valve to ON. Light and hold an ignition source at the pilot. When the flame is established, remove the ignition source. Repeat this step for each burner.

If the burners on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK do not ignite promptly, turn the knobs to OFF. Use a screwdriver to turn the pilot valve screw counterclockwise through the opening in the front panel to increase the flame height, then repeat the lighting step. The pilot flame should be as small as possible, but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition.

To ignite the burner, turn the knob on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK to the ON position, then back off to the desired flame level.

Place the racks that hold the rocks into position over the burners of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK. Place the char rocks on the rack without piling or stacking them. The correct amount of char rocks for this model is 48 pieces.

Place the top cooking grates on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK with the grid bars angled toward the front, or place the grid bars flat. When placed angled toward the front, the grooves on top will guide excess fat drippings into the grease trough.

The cooking grates on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK are heavy duty cast iron which will oxidize if immersed in water. Lightly oil the grates when not being used regularly.

Use a clean cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner to clean the stainless steel body of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK. Wipe the polished areas with a soft cloth.

Ensure the GLOBE GCB24G-RK is turned off when not in use. It is recommended that the unit be disconnected from the gas supply by closing the main gas valve. Use a clean cloth to wipe down controls and knobs.

Place grates on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK with grid bars horizontal and facing down. Turn the broiler on for 45 minutes, then turn it off and allow it to cool for 20 minutes. Clean top and bottom surfaces with a wire brush to remove animal fats and carbonized grease. Clean channels with a scraper. Remove grates and clean the top surface of radiants with a wire brush.

When handling grates, grids, or radiants of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK, always use insulated gloves to prevent burns.

Do not cover the top of the grates or grid on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK during a burn-off operation. Restricting the airflow may cause them to warp and will cause damage to the valves, knobs, and front panel decal.

Once the GLOBE GCB24G-RK has cooled, remove the cast iron grates. Lift and rock the back support brace toward you, then lift it up and around the back support pins to clean and degrease it. When reinstalling, angle the long lead edge down around the pins and rock it until it is seated flat.

Once the GLOBE GCB24G-RK has cooled, remove the catch tray by pulling it forward and discard the waste, grease, and crumbs. Use caution when removing the tray.

Close the gas valve to the GLOBE GCB24G-RK, shutting off the gas and extinguishing the pilot. Clean the main burner ports in place with a wire brush, or clean gas ports with a sharp-pointed metal instrument. Alternatively, the burners may be removed and washed in soapy water for 15 to 20 minutes.

Make sure the vent on the regulator of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK is open and not blocked in any way. Failure to do so will cause variations in pressure, which will impact function and shorten the life of the product.

Do not use any abrasive or flammable cleaning fluids on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK. Never use a scrubber pad, steel wool, or abrasive material, or cleaners containing chlorine, iodine, ammonia, or bromine chemicals as these will deteriorate the stainless steel.

Do not hose down, immerse, or pressure wash any part of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK, excluding the catch tray.

Check if the main gas line for the GLOBE GCB24G-RK is closed and open it if necessary. If the pilot light is not lit, ignite it.

The adjustment knob on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK may be turned up or down; adjust the flame to the appropriate level using the control knob.

If the pilot light on the GLOBE GCB24G-RK will not stay lit, the flame might be too low, in which case you should adjust the pilot light flame height. If the pilot tube is clogged, it will need to be replaced.

If there is a strong smell of gas near the GLOBE GCB24G-RK, turn off the main gas valve immediately. Do not light any flame, do not ignite anything, and do not turn or switch on any electrical devices.

If the GLOBE GCB24G-RK is heating up slowly due to carbon build-up, ensure that the burners are kept clean and free from carbon build-up or debris.

The burners, cooking grates, and outside surfaces of the GLOBE GCB24G-RK will become hot after use. Use caution when touching the unit. Allow the unit to cool down before dismantling it for cleaning.
