SR-18-8T OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The model SR-18-8T Stock Pot Range is controlled by two thermostats located on the control
panel.
The thermostats control each left and right half of the plate independently of each other. A pilot
lamp, next to each thermostat, glows when it's respective side is heating and will extinguish when
the side reaches its set temperature.
Keep the Stock Pot Range either off or set at a moderate temperature (300
°
F) when not being
used. This procedure saves energy, keeps your kitchen cooler, and extends the Stock Pot Range's
useful life.
Boiling water is most quickly accomplished by:
1) Starting with hot tap water.
2) Covering stock pots with lids.
3) Placing smaller stock pots ( 9" diameter or less) either on right or left side of plate as the
thermostat sensing device is located in the center of each side.
4) Starting with a pre-heated unit. It should take approximately 1 hour to reach maximum
temperature.
