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 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 with a non -corrosive,
grease dissolving commercial cleaner, following the manufacturer’s directions. Rinse
thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. Clean all accessories.
SEASONING THE GRIDDLE
Season the griddle to avoid possible surface corrosion before first use, and after every
cleaning. 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. This will
also help reduce the sticking of cooked food product.
CONTROLS
There is one pilot for every two burners except on the 36” models. The 36” models have
an odd number of main burners; therefore one of the pilots in these models will control
only one main burner. The pilot burners are off center
ed about 1” to the left of pilot sight
holes and inset approximately 7
” from the front panel. See cutaway view on page 8.
The unit is equipped with standing, unmonitored pilots. Gas will flow from the pilots as
soon as the main gas supply to the unit is turned on. The pilots are lit with the use of an
outside ignition source (such as a lit taper, etc). See pilot lighting procedure on page 8.
Each 12” section of the griddle is independently controlled by an infinite heat control
valve. Once the pilots are lit, turning the control knob to the ON position will light each
burner. The burners will be in the full ON position when turned all the way to the left.
The burners will be in the full OFF position when turned all the way to the right. See Fig.
6. The height of the burner flame and plate temperature can be adjusted by turning
control knobs while viewing burners through the burner sight holes.
