BURNER AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
The burner air shutter has a locking screw on the bottom side of the venturi. Loosen this screw
to make any adjustment and tighten the screw to lock the air shutter in place after adjustment
is complete. Any adjustment must be made when the burner is at full input before the control
temperature setting has been satisfi ed.
1. Turn the control knob to the highest position and observe the burner fl ame.
2. Slowly decrease the air shutter opening until the fl ame is a soft blue with yellow tips, then
increase the opening until the yellow tips disappear and the fl ame is a hard blue.
3. Do not open the shutter to a point where the fl ame is unstable or lifting from the burner
surface. The fl ame must be steady and even across the entire burner.
The following was set at the factory and the adjustment should only be made
by an authorized installer and only if you are experiencing this specifi c
problem.
BYPASS ADJUSTMENT ON THROTTLING CONTROL MODELS ONLY
Throttling control models have a minimum fl ame setting that provides a steady uniform fl ame
across the burner when the control heat setting has been satisfi ed.
1. Set the control at the maximum setting and wait for the burner fl ame to throttle back.
2. Turn the dial to the 200 degree setting. A small steady fl ame should be visible on all the
burner ports. This fl ame should be approximately 1/8" high.
3. An adjustment screw is located either on the front or side of the control housing.
4. Turn clockwise to decrease the fl ame height; turn counterclockwise to increase the fl ame
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION FOR SNAP ACTION AND CHROME SURFACE
MODELS ONLY
Snap action and chrome surface griddles are equipped with a three-prong grounding plug. The
unit is designed for use on a 120 volt 15 amp 50/60 cycle AC single-phase circuit only. For
protection against electrical shock, the unit must be plugged directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
Do not connect to any other type of current or serious damage will occur.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SEASONING THE GRIDDLE HEATING SURFACE (NON-CHROME 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 (174.0°C).
2. Using a clean cloth, not a spatula, spread a thin fi lm of cooking oil or shortening over the
griddle cooking surface. This fi lm should remain on the hot griddle surface 1/2 hour.
3. Remove excess shortening and wipe clean.
4. Apply
another
fi lm of cooking oil over the hot cooking area for another 1/2 hour, and again
remove excess shortening 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."
COOKING
Set the dial knob to the setting desired. After a 30 minute (minimum) preheating period, the
griddle will automatically maintain the selected temperature.
