OPERATION
WARNING: THE GRIDDLE AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING,
CLEANING OR SERVICING.
BEFORE FIRST USE
The griddle is shipped covered with a protective coating. Remove this film only when the
griddle plate is being cleaned prior to its first cooking use. Use 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. Wipe off any excess oil
with a cloth. Repeat the procedure until the griddle has a slick, mirror-like finish.
CONTROLS
AGT Models
Each 12” section of the griddle is independently controlled by a thermostatic valve. Turn
the thermostat(s) to the desired setting.
NOTE: The burner is ALWAYS on for an AGT model griddle, which may cause griddle
temperatures to exceed set point during periods of low usage.
AGM Models
Each 12” section of the griddle is heated by a burner with an manual infinite control valve.
Adjust the valve position to the desired setting.
EXTENDED SHUTDOWN
1. Shut off the main gas supply valve.
2. Apply a heavy coat of oil over the griddle plate to inhibit rust.
