Set the griddle upright in the operating location.
Leveling: a slight incline from the front to the back may be desired to eliminate standing oil. Adjust feet
accordingly.
EQUIPMENT PREPARATION
The griddle is shipped with protective coatings of oil and/or grease. Remove the griddle plate coating just
prior to its first cooking use. If the griddle is to be shut down for an extended period, put a heavy coat of clean
grease back over the griddle plate.
Wipe the remaining cabinet parts down with a hot, wet cloth to remove any shipping dust and protective oil.
Remove anything that may be in the grease drawer.
CAUTION: Care must be exercised not to overheat the griddle plate on initial start-up by
OPERATING SEASONING
A new griddle surface must be seasoned to do a good cooking job. The metal surface of the griddle is
porous. Food tends to get trapped in these pores and stick; therefore, it is important to "season" or "fill up"
these pores with griddling "fat" before cooking on any metal surfaced griddle. Seasoning gives the surface
a slick, hard finish from which the food with release easily.
setting the controls above normal operating temperature. Overheating may cause the
!
plate to warp and will carbonize the grease (this will cause sticking).
!
To season, heat the griddle to a low (300°F to 350°F) temperature and pour on a small amount of cooking
oil, about one ounce per square foot of surface. Spread the oil over the entire griddle surface with a cloth to
create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with a cloth.
Repeat the procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick, mirror-like surface.
