GENERAL
Drop-In Griddles are designed to be installed into metal fixtures or fabricated tops. Fixture or top must be
sufficiently rigid to support device weight without warping. Emphasis is on simplifying the layout and
fabrication. These instructions covers all models. The floor plans for the griddles shows overall and other
keydimensions ofthe deviceand theirrelationshipsto thefixture ortop intowhich they willbe installed.
U.L.CONDITIONS OF ACCEPTABILITY:
A. This equipment must be installed in an all metal fixture of steel or stainless steel construction, .078
inchthick minimumfor thetop andsupporting frame.Side enclosure tobe atleast 22MSG minimum
thickness.
B. A removable bottom enclosure must be provided under each drop-in unit and be made of metal
construction of at least 22 MSG min. If ventilating openings are provided in the bottom enclosure
they must not allow the entranceof a3/4 inchdiameter rodnor belocated directlybelow uninsulated

C. Minimum spacing between griddle top edge and adjacent items should be: fixture back wall 1-3/4
inch,Fixture sideenclosure 1inch, Frontcontrolpanel 7/8inch, Otherdrop-in devices 1inch.
D. Controlsshall bemounted on the front verticalsurface ofthe fixture.
E. For supplyconnections usewire suitable forat least90 degreesCelsius(194 degreesFahrenheit).
LAYOUT
1. The layouts illustrate theholes to be cut into themetal fixture or fabricated top to accept the griddle.
Also shown are holes to be cut into the fixture front (apron) to accommodate the griddle control
panel. The front-to-back (depth) dimensions for the griddles are not the same.

2. All minimumdimensions shownmust be met.
3. Aftermaking theproper layout, cutthe holein thetop ofthe fixture.
4. Cutthe largehole anddrill thecontrol panelholesin thefront ofthe fixturefrom thelayout.
5. The griddle is furnished with a stiffening angle or reinforcement frame assembly that is used to
reinforce thefixture top. Thisreinforcement must be welded on the perimeterof the counter topcut-
out. The upturned flanges on the reinforcement should be located an equal distance from the sides
of the cut-out. Figure #2 shows a cutaway view of how the stiffening angle appears when welded to
thefixture top.
NOTE:
(1) Before welding the stiffening angle to the fixture top, assemble the furnished clamps and clamp
screwsas shownin figure#2.

INSTALLATION
With all the large holes cut out, the smaller control panel holes drilled, and the stiffening angle welded into
place,the fixtureis nowready toreceive the griddle.

1. Hobart furnishesa gasketor seal that must be
placed around the perimeter of the hole in the
top as shown in Fig. 3. This gasket may be
temporarily held in place with tape. Do not
place the staple securing the gasket ends on
or near acorner.
2. A number of clamps, such as the one shown
in Fig. 3, appear at intervals along the
perimeter. Pull clamps outward so that the
griddle frame clears them when it is dropped
intoplace.
3. Drop the griddle into position by lowering it
into the fixture top hole. Make sure that the
thermostat capillaries are not kinked or
pinched when setting the griddle in place.
With the griddle in place, the gasket or seal
becomescompressed. SeeFig. 4.
4. Slide the clamp inward so that it engages the
upper part of the protruding angle from the
griddlebody frame.See Fig.5.
Slide the clamp sideways so thatthe notch on
it locks against the reinforcement angle. This
preventsthe clampfrom sliding out.
5. Tighten the clamp screws against the angle
asshown inFig. 5.
This tightening forces the clamp to press
down on the griddle body frame extension.
The griddle top is now drawn close to the
fixture top, compressing the gasket and
forming an effective grease guard. Tighten at
least one screw on each side before
tightening all screws. Do not exceed 60 in.-

6. Slide the tray slide (grease drawer
receptacle) through the cut-out hole on the
apron or front of the fixture, resting it on the
two"U braces.
7. Mount the thermostats to the control panel
and make the pilot light connections per the
accompanying wiring diagram. Before
making any electrical connections, check
nameplate voltage (located on tray slide
under grease drawer) to ensure it matches
voltagebeing applied.
8. Set the control panel in place and screw it to
the apron, using the 1/2" long thread-forming
screws.
9. Pull the tray slide against the back of the
control panel and secure it with the
appropriatescrews.
10. Slide thegrease drawerinto place.

OWNER'S INFORMATION
CLEANINGTHE GRIDDLEAFTERINSTALLATION
Before using the griddle for the first time, be sure to remove the factory-applied rust preventive compound.
Adda milddetergent tohot waterand washthe griddle well.Rinse witha clean,damp clothand wipe dry.
CONTROLS
The heat of the griddle surface is controlled by turning the dial knobs (recessed in the front control pane!).
Separate signal lights cycle with each control, whenever the thermostat calls for heat the signal light
associated with it will be on. Each thermostat controls twelve inches of griddle surface width. The
thermostattemperature range is200-450 degreeFahrenheit, +/-10 degrees.
SEASONINGTHE GRIDDLESURFACE
After a thorough cleaning, the griddle is ready for seasoning. Preheat the griddle to 400 degrees
Fahrenheit. When the dialed temperature is reached as indicated by the signal lights going off, spread a
light film of cooking oil or fat over the entiresurface of the griddle. After twominutes, wipethe griddleclean of
excessoil. Repeatthis operation.Thegriddle isnow readyfor use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the griddle (preheat time for 77-350 degree Fahrenheit is approximately 8 minutes) - Set
the thermostat dials at the correct temperature for the food to be cooked. A red light will flash on
automatically for each section of the griddle when the thermostat is set, and will go off when the
section has reached the set temperature. The signal light will flash on and off during the cooking
operation to show that correct temperature is being maintained. You are now ready to load the
griddle.
2. Load thegriddle -Afterpreheating,load thegriddle andcook according torecipe.
3. Economy hint- Turn thegriddle OFF (orto thelowest thermostatsetting)during idleperiods.
CAREAND CLEANING
At the endof eachday's operation,turn all temperaturecontrols to"OFF".

necessary during use, wipe out accumulated material to provide good drainage. Remove grease drawer,
empty and wash. In general, soap and water with the aid of a sponge or soft cloth will clean the drawer
thoroughly. Wipe cleanwith adamp clothand dry.Clean controlpanel with adamp clothand dry.
