OPERATION 

OPERATION OF MANUAL GRIDDLE MODELS 

Each 12"-wide griddle section has a knob on the front panel that directly controls the flow of gas, and so the 
heat. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the heat; turn it counterclockwise to reduce the heat. 

After each period of use, allow the griddle surface to cool normally. At the end of each day’s use, turn all 
control knobs to the “OFF” position. After the griddle has cooled, coat the griddle surface with a light film of 
cooking oil to protect the surface from moisture. 

To shut down the appliance for an extended period (or before disconnecting the gas supply), turn all the 
burner control gas knobs “OFF,” then turn the main gas supply valve(s) to “OFF.” 

To light the pilots of a manual griddle section

, do the following: 

1.  Turn all griddle controls to the “OFF” position. 

2.  Light the pilot tube located next to each burner. The pilot flame can be adjusted by turning the screw on 

the end of the pilot fitting. 

3.  Turn burner knobs to “HI” position. The burners should have a 1/2" to 5/8" steady blue flame. Adjust if 

necessary. 

4.  To turn burners off, turn knob to “OFF” position.
