FLUE CONNECTIONS
Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue slots, located around the outside
perimeter of the griddle. It is recommended that flue gases be ventil ated to the outside of
the building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum
clearance of 18” must be maintained.
Information on the construction a nd installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from
the standard for “Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest edition),
available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA
02269.
OPERATION
The griddle and its parts are hot. Use care when operating,
cleaning or servicing the griddle
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove all packing material and protective plastic from the surfaces of the unit. Before
leaving the factory the griddle is coated with vegetable oil as a rust inhibitor. Remove this
film when the griddle plate is being cleaned prior to its first cooking use. Heat the griddle
to 200-300°F to loosen and melt the coating, then clean the surface by adding water or
a non-corrosive, grease dissolving c
ommercial cleaner, following the manufacturer’s
directions. Scrape the oil residue from the plate with a griddle scraper. Rinse thoroughly
and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth.
SEASONING THE GRIDDLE
Season the griddle to avoid possible surface corrosion before first use, and after every
cleaning. This will also help reduce the sticking of cooked food product. Heat griddle to a
low temperature (300 -350°F) and apply a small amount of cooking oil
– about one ounce
per square foot of surface. Use a soft lint -free cloth to spread the oil over the entire
griddle surface to create a thin film. W ipe off any excess oil with a cloth. Repeat the
procedure until the griddle has a slick, mirror -like finish.
CONTROLS
This model features a standing pilot that must b e manually lit with an outside ignition
source (such as a lit taper, etc). The pilot is monitored by a thermocouple and pilot
safety valve. If the pilot goes out, the safety valve will shut -off the gas supply to the pilot
and main burner.
The griddle burner is controlled by an infinite heat control valve. Once the pilot is lit,
turning the burner control knob to the full ON position will light the burner. The burner
will be in the full ON position when the burner control knob is turned all the way to the
left. The burner will be in the OFF position when the burner control knob is turned all the
