TURNING THE GRIDDLE ON AND OFF
Since all burners are lit from constantly burning pilots, turning the thermostats as desired is all that is
required to put the griddle into service. To turn the griddle off, turn thermostats to OFF.
Extended Shutdown
1. Turn all thermostats to OFF.
2. Extinguish pilot flame by turning the adjusting screw on the pilot shutoff valve (Fig. 1).
3. Turn manual shutoff valve OFF.
USING THE GRIDDLE
Each 12" section of the griddle is independently controlled by a thermostat. Turn the thermostat(s) to
the desired setting. If different temperature settings are to be used, adjoining areas should be set at
progressively higher temperatures, the lowest temperature being adjacent to one side. CAUTION:
DO NOT overheat the griddle plate by setting thermostats well above recommended temperatures.
Overheating the plate may cause plate warpage and will carbonize the grease on the plate,
causing sticking. See SUGGESTED TEMPERATURES AND TIMES FOR GRIDDLING in this
manual.
Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking to preheat.
A uniform and systematic approach to the loading of the griddle will produce the most consistent
product results.
