GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
With all the large holes cut out, the smaller control panels drilled, and the stiffening angle welded into place
the fixture is now ready to receive the griddle.
1.
The manufacturer furnishes a gasket or seal that must be placed around the perimeter of the hole in
the top as shown in Fig. 4. This gasket may be temporarily held in place with tape. Do not place the
staple securing the gasket ends on or near a corner.
2.
A number of clamps, such as the one shown in Fig. 4, appear at intervals along the perimeter. Pull
clamps outward so the griddle frame clears them when it is dropped into place.
3.
Drop the griddle into position by lowering it into the fixture top hole. Make sure the thermostat
capillaries are not kinked or pinched when setting the griddle in place. With the griddle in place, the
gasket or seal becomes compressed. See Fig. 5.
4.
Slide the clamp inward so it engages the upper part of the protruding angle from the griddle frame.
See Fig. 6. Slide the clamp sideways so the notch on it locks against the reinforcement angle. This
prevents the clamp from sliding out.
5.
Tighten the clamp screws against the angle as shown in Figure 6. This tightening forces the clamps
to press down on the griddle body frame extension. The griddle top is now drawn close to the fixture
top, compressing the gasket and forming an effective grease guard. Tighten at least one screw on
each side before tightening all screws. Do not exceed 60 in/lb torque when tightening bolts.
6.
Slide the tray slide (grease drawer receptacle) through the cutout hole on the apron or front of the
fixture, resting it on the two "U" braces.
7.
Mount the thermostats to the control panel and make the pilot light connections per the
accompanying wire diagram. Before making any electrical connections, check nameplate voltage
(located on tray slide under grease drawer) to ensure it matches voltage being applied.
8.
Set the control panel in place and screw it to the apron using the ½ inch long thread forming screws.
9.
Pull the tray slide against the back of the control panel and secure it with the appropriate screws.
