GRIDDLES WITH SNAP-ACTION THERMOSTATS
.
Models JGTS and JGGTS
Snap Action Thermostats, unlike other types of thermostats, do not have a positive shut-off position and gas
can flow through the valve even when the thermostat is set all the way counterclockwise (CCW) so that no
temperature is indicated on the dial. When temperature in the kitchen drops below the bottom threshold of the
thermostat range, gas can flow. This is why the Jade griddle has installed an additional shu-off valve just
below the front panel. When this valve is off, gas flows only to the standing pilots.
Models JGTS and JGGTS
Models JGTSD and JGTSDS
Before turning on the main gas supply valve external to the griddle, make sure the thermostats are set all way
CCW. On models JGTS JGGTS and JGTSD, the red valve handle just under the front panel should be
turned off as well. The “off” position is with the valve handle pointing towards the back of the griddle.
For
JGTS
and
JGGTS
models, turn on the main valve located at the rear of the unit and light the pilots thru
the oblong access holes in the panel. Adjust the flame only if necessary. Turn on the red valve handle in front
and set the thermostat to the desired temperature.
