LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

When griddle is first lit, it will smoke until the preservation oils and impurities are burned off.

1.  Turn off main valve to unit and wait 5 minutes to clear gas.
2.  Turn off all knobs and pilot valves.

3.  Turn on main valve and light all pilots.
4.  Turn burner knobs to desired setting.

5.  To turn burners off, turn knobs off.

NOTE: The griddles are equipped with standing pilots and should be lit immediately after the gas is 

turned on.

Pilot flames can be lit and observed through the front panel view ports.  However, best access for lighting the pilot is 

from the bottom of the unit just behind the center wall.

PILOT LIGHT REGULATION

Adjust pilot light flames as small as possible, but high enough to light burner immediately when burner valve 

is turned on high.

BURNER ADJUSTMENT 

(MODELS GGM)

1.  Remove the front panel.
2.  Turn burner valve knob to "HI" position.

3.  Close the air shutter on the front of the burner to give a soft blue flame having luminous tips and open to a point 

where the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue flame is obtained.  Repeat for all burners.

BURNER ADJUSTMENT 

(MODELS GGT)

1.  Remove the front panel.

2.  Push dial in and set thermostat of one burner to 450°F (229.9°C).
3.  Close the air shutter on the front of the burner to give a soft blue flame having luminous tips and open 

to a point where the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue flame is obtained. Repeat for all burners.

BURNER OPERATION 

(MODELS GGM)

To ignite burners, turn burner valve knob to "HI" position. Each burner is controlled by an individual high-low, on-off 

valve. An infinite number of temperatures may be obtained by turning the burner valve knob to any position between 

high and low.  For overnight shutdown, turn the valves to the "OFF" position.

SEASONING THE GRIDDLE SURFACE 

(NON-CHROMIUM SURFACES)

Clean the griddle surface thoroughly. After the griddle has been thoroughly cleaned, it should be seasoned to prevent 

food from sticking. Before using, and after each thorough scouring, season the griddle heating surface in the following 

manner:

1.  Turn the temperature control dial to 350°F (174.9°C).
2.  Using a clean cloth, not a spatula, spread a thin film of cooking oil over the griddle cooking surface.  This film 

should remain on the hot griddle surface 1/2 hour.

3.  Remove excess oil and wipe clean.

4.  Apply another film of cooking oil over the hot cooking area for another 1/2 hour and again remove excess oil and 

wipe clean.  The griddle surface should now be ready for use.

Even with careful seasoning food may, to some extent, stick to the griddle cooking surface until griddle 

plate is "broken in."
