UNPACKING AND INSPECTION:
Carefully lift Griddle out of shipping container, and inspect immediately for shipping damage. Install 4-inch legs as
follows: Remove the legs from plastic shipping bag, turn Griddle on its back and screw legs into the four holes
provided in bottom.
NOTE: Your heavy-duty commercial Griddle was shipped in a carton designed to give it maximum protection in
normal handling. It was thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory and the carrier accepted and signed for it.
File any claims for shipping damage or irregularities directly with the carrier, not with company.
FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONS ONLY
INSTALLATION:
(Caution: Be sure to comply with local codes.)
Carefully place griddle in its permanent location, allowing at least 1-inch clearance from the rear wall to prevent
possible heat damage.
Level the griddle by adjusting the legs. It is best to tilt the griddle plate a few degrees toward the front, where the
grease chute is located, to facilitate grease runoff.
The griddle is not fused internally; therefore, it must be connected to a fused circuit equipped with a suitable
disconnect as may be required by local electrical code. Refer to the
wiring table
for fuse or circuit breaker required
for each griddle.
ELECTRICAL HOOKUP
:
All Griddles– come supplied with an appropriate Line Cord and Plug in accordance to Griddle size.
Insert Line Cord Plug into APPROPRIATE NEMA SOCKET. (See Electrical Specifications, front page)
WARNING
MACHINE WARRANTY IS VOID IF GRIDDLE IS CONNECTED TO ANY VOLTAGE OTHER THAN THAT
FOR WHICH IT WAS DESIGNED.
PREPARING GRIDDLE:
Peel off paper covering griddle plate.
The cooking surface is protected with a coating of petroleum jelly, which must be removed before the griddle can be
used. To do this, set thermostat knob(s) to 200 degrees and wait for the griddle to heat up enough to melt the
petroleum jelly. Immediately turn thermostat knob(s) to OFF and use a cloth to wipe off as much petroleum jelly as
possible. Then wipe the cooking surface with griddle cleaner, rinse thoroughly with water and wipe dry.
Apply a light coating of cooking oil or shortening to the entire cooking surface. Your griddle plate is now ready for
normal operation.
OPERATION:
Turn the thermostat knob(s) to the desired cooking temperature and wait for the griddle to reach operating
temperature (when the pilot light(s) go out.) Your griddle features independent heating zones, each controlled by
one thermostat. This allows different types of food to be cooked at the same time in different zones. Use the
Cooking Chart below as a guide for proper cooking temperatures and times required for different foods.
