GENERAL
INTRODUCTION
This Service Manual covers specific service
information related to the models listed on the front
cover. Procedures in this manual will apply to all
VCCG Heavy Duty Gas Griddles unless otherwise
specified. Raising the griddle plate is not required for
servicing the griddle components. Griddle
components are serviced through the front and rear.
Pictures and illustrations can be of any model unless
the picture or illustration needs to be model specific.
The VCCG griddles are available with three different
cooking surface types:
•
Steel (standard).
•
Chrome (optional).
•
Rapid Recovery™ Griddle Plate* (optional).
*The Rapid Recovery Griddle plate is a composite
material which is engineered to provide a high heat
transfer rate to the food. The top surface can be
scored or dented by careless use of a spatula or
scraper. The center of the plate is an aluminum core
with sheets of stainless steel laminated to the top and
bottom exterior surfaces.

It should be noted that an improperly installed unit,
especially an unleveled unit can lead to premature
electrical component failures. A unit that is higher in
the front will cause the flue gases to vent improperly
and gather in the front near the electrical components.
