OPERATION OF GRIDDLE:
By turning all the burners to the fully on position, the griddle plate will preheat to about 350°F in 10 minutes. The
burners should be turned down to an idling position (low flame) when not cooking; otherwise the griddle plate will
overheat which may result in discoloration and warping.
Your griddle features independent heating zones, with each linear 12 inches of griddle surface being manually con-
trolled by its separate burner. This allows different types of food to be cooked at the same time in different zones.
With practice and experience, the operator can establish the necessary timing for the cooking of different foods.
A grease trough is provided at the front of the griddle which empties into a grease drawer; use spatula to loos en the
soil on the griddle plate and sweep it into the chute. Do not tap the edge of the spatula on the griddle plate, as this
will mar the finish of the polished surface and perhaps cause food to stick when cooking.
MAINTENANCE OF GRIDDLE:
Keep the griddle plate clean by washing with hot water and griddle cleaners, available from your dealer. Do not use
steel wool or abrasives, which will become embedded in the plate, ruining the finish and causing food to stick.
Keep all exterior surfaces of the griddle free of splashed grease and other dirt by washing regularly with hot water
and soap. Rinse and wipe dry; then polish with a soft cloth.
These simple procedures will not only keep your griddle clean and sparkling, but will prevent grease accumulations
from forming. A well cleaned griddle will give you many years of service and perform more efficiently.
OUTSIDE SERVICE:
Should you require help contact the factory, your factory representative, or your local service company.
FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONS ONLY
When servicing of unit is required, contact a qualified service agency.
ADJUSTMENTS (Burner and Pilot):
1. To adjust burner flame:
loosen slotted hex screw on side of burner venturi and rotate air shutter slowly until
flame with soft blue inner cone is obtained.
2. To adjust pilot flame:
locate pilot light adjustment valve on gas manifold pipe opposite each pilot burner and
turn adjusting screw to obtain a ¾” flame.
MAINTENANCE OF BURNERS:
THE MAIN BURNER CAN BE REMOVED FROM THE FRONT OF THE APPLIANCE AND SHOULD BE CLEANED BOTH
INSIDE THE VENTURI PORTION AND ON THE OUTSIDE USING A SOFT BRISTLE BRUSH. THE MAIN BURNER MUST BE
REPLACED INTO THE SAME POSITION AS PRIOR TO REMOVAL. ONCE A YEAR A QUALIFIED SERVICE AGENCY
SHOULD BE CONTACTED TO INSPECT THE APPLIANCE FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION.
SERVICING (Burner Control Valves and Pilot Adjustment Valves):
1. Shut off main gas supply to griddle.
2. Pull off gas knobs.
3. Remove front panel, held in place by front and side fasteners. This will expose the Burner Control Valves, the
pilot control valves and the venturies of the burners.
4. When replacing components, make sure to apply an approved pipe compound resistant to L.P. gases to all
threaded joints.
5. Open the gas supply valve to griddle and check for gas leaks by applying a soap solution on all threaded joints.
