INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND CARE OF MEDIUM DUTY 

GAS GRIDDLES 

 

GENERAL 

Medium  Duty  Gas  Griddles  are  produced  with  quality  workmanship  and  materials.  Proper  installation,  usage 
and maintenance of your griddle will result in many years of satisfactory performance.   

Thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided. 

INSTALLATION 

UNPACKING 

This griddle was inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes full responsibility 
for  safe  delivery  upon  acceptance  of  shipment.  Check  for  possible  shipping  damage  immediately  after 
unpacking. If the griddle is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 
days of delivery.   

Carefully unpack your griddle and make sure that no parts are discarded with packaging material. A pressure 
regulator  designed  to  operate  with  the  griddle  has  been  supplied  and  must  be  installed  before  the  griddle  is 
placed into service (Refer to GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR INSTALLATION in this manual).   

LOCATION 

The installation location must be kept free and clear of combustibles. When installing, never enclose the bottom 
of the griddle with a raised curb or other constructions that would obstruct flow of air into or out of the griddle. 
Adequate  clearance  for  air  openings  into  the  combustion  chamber  must  be  provided.  Make  sure  there  is  an 
adequate supply of air in the room to replace air taken out by the ventilation system.   

Do not permit air to blow directly at the griddle. Avoid open windows next to the griddle wherever possible. Avoid 
wall-type fans which create air cross-currents within the room.   

This griddle is Design Certified for installation on a non-

combustible counter with 4” legs, or combustible floor 

with 24” high stand.
