Warning

Since the cast iron plates are extremely heavy, care
must be exercised when lifting the griddle plate to
carry out maintenance. The initial lifting points are
through the fat escape holes. A suitable batten of
wood should be inserted between the plate and the
front hob rail to support the weight.

Rest the plate on the batten and take a strong grip
below the front edge of the plate. Raise it to the
desired angle for access.

Place a suitable wooden prop, capable of supporting
the weight, below the plate. Ensure that it is securely
anchored to prevent accidental slipping. Make sure
also that the appliance base which is much lighter
than the plate cannot move whilst lifting the plate.

UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED, PARTS WHICH HAVE BEEN PROTECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER
ARE NOT TO BE ADJUSTED BY THE INSTALLER
