Product Application
Preparation of soups, stocks or sauces is done on a hot
plate where slow even cooking is desirable. Heating larger
quantities of food can be done more eciently than heating
small quantities. Pot and pans should be covered whenever
possible to reduce energy consumption.
High acid sauces, such as tomato should be cooked in
stainless steel vessels rather than aluminum since stainless
will not react chemically. Light colored sauces may be
discolored by the use of aluminum especially if stirred with
a metal spoon. Salty water may pit aluminum vessels if used
frequently.
NOTE: Many parts of the equipment are raw steel, i.e.,
griddle top, top grates, rings etc. and can react with moisture
forming rust. This is normal and not considered a defect.
Clean with stainless steel or ber pad. A light coating of salt
free oil may be applied to prevent further rusting.
Serial Plate
All electrical ratings are shown on the serial plate of each
unit and are readily visible by opening the enameled door
located below the control panel.
For proper operation, the information noted on the serial
plate of your new equipment must match your electrical
supply.
1 Check the crate/carton for possible damage sustained
during transit. Carefully remove the unit from the crate/
carton and again check for damage. Any damage must be
reported to the carrier immediately.
2. Any protective material covering stainless steel parts
must be removed.
3. The type of voltage supply that the equipment was
manufactured for at the factory is noted on the serial
plate and the packaging. This type of supply must be
used.

trip and can only be reset by pushing the red button
when the shortening has cooled.
2. All EDU series fryers are equipped with a precision
electronic thermostat, which has been factory calibrated
and is designed to hold that calibration. There should
never be the need to calibrate this thermostat in the eld.
Should there ever be an abnormal discrepancy in the set
point and actual temperatures, or repeated tripping of
the new high limit occurs, this fryer should be serviced by
an authorized Garland service agency.
Before Operating the Fryer
1. Before leaving the factory, the fryer was tested and the
thermostat calibrated with oil in the fry tank. Therefore it
is necessary to clean the fry tank and the elements before
lling with frying compound. Use detergent or other
cleaning agents, with hot water. Thoroughly rinse and dry
the fry tank.
2. To remove the fry tank, raise the element assembly by
means of the handle until the support engages, holding
the element assembly in the upright position. The
element assembly is lowered by moving the support/lock
stop to release the element assembly from the upright

instructions.
Calibration Instructions
1. Field calibration is seldom necessary and should not
be attempted unless experience with cooking results
denitely proves that the control is not maintaining the
temperature to which the dial is set.
2. Should calibration be required, use a test instrument
(pyrometer) with a special disc type thermocouple or
reliable “surface” type thermometer. Note: A drop of oil on
the face of the disc will provide a better contact.
3. Turn the griddle temperature dials to 350°F (177°C). In
order to allow the griddle temperatures to stabilize, the
controls must be allowed to cycle twice before taking a
test reading.
4. Check the temperature reading when the control has just
cycled “OFF” (as indicated by the cycling amber pilot), by
placing the sensor rmly on the griddle surface, directly
above the sensing bulb of the control. If the temperature
does not read with in 8° C (15°F) of the dial setting,
recalibrate as follows:
5. Carefully remove the thermostat dial making sure that
the setting is not disturbed.
6. Hold the dial shaft steady and with a slim screwdriver,
turn the calibration screw, located in the dial shaft,
clockwise to decrease and counter clockwise to increase
the temperature. Example: 1/4 Turn = 18° C (35°F).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Safety Concerns
It is the responsibility of the supervisor or equivalent person
to ensure that the users of this equipment wear suitable
protective clothing and draw attention to the fact that some
parts will, by necessity, become very hot and will cause burns
if touched accidentally.
Sealed Hot Plates
All purpose sealed top elements provide an easy-clean top.
They are intended for boiling, simmering, satué and other
top cooling.
Operating practices are very important for the ecient use of
these elements:
1. Pot bottoms must be at. This increased the heat transfer
to the pot. Do not use either convex or concave in excess
of 1 mm (1/32”).
2. Use pots with the same diameter as the element when
possible. This will reduce the heat up time.
3. Do not preheat the element. Elements are protected with
a high limit, which automatically reduces the element to
a lower power. It will increase the heat up if this occurs.
4. Use a lid to cover the posts when boiling water.
Operating The Sealed Hot Plate
1. Before using the sealed hot plates for the rst time, they
should be heated at a setting #3 for 5 minutes, then
turned o and allowed to cool. This will harden and burn
o the protective coating.
2. Set the six heat switch dial to the desired position for 1 to 6.

Fryers
Operating The Fryer:
1. For liquid frying compound, ll the fry tank to bottom oil
line stamped at the rear of the tank (9 liters, 8 quarts). This
allows for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not ll with
cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overow may
occur as heat expands the oil. Set the power switch to
the “ON” position and turn the thermostat to the desired
frying position.
2. If a hydrogenated (solid) frying compound is used,
measure 17 pounds (7.7 Kg) into the dry tank. Note: pack
the compound, to ensure that the element assembly is
completely covered with the compound.
CAUTION: Never set a complete block of solid shortening on
top of heating elements.
3. Set the power switch to the “ON” position and turn
the thermostat dial to 121°C (250°F) until enough
of the compound has melted to cover the element
assembly. Then turn the thermostat to the desired frying
temperature.
4. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when
the oil is at its cooking temperature. It may be necessary
to add oil or shortening to bring the levels up to the
proper mark, after reaching cooking temperature.
5. Never place more product in the basket than half full.
Griddles
Griddle tops are designed to have food cooked directly on
the surface. Do not put pots or pans on the griddle surface,
since this will scratch or nick the surface and result in
improper cooking or sticking of product. Never salt food over
a griddle since this will built up a gummy residue making it
dicult to clean.
Avoid hitting the surface of the griddle with the edge a
spatula since it will cause nicks. The most frequently used
temperatures are 149° C to 177°C (300° F to 500° F). After one
ring, the griddle plate will discolor, this is normal and will not
aect cooking performance.
Note: The griddle must be seasoned before initial use, see
griddle seasoning in General Maintenance and Cleaning

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
WARNING: THESE APPLIANCES SHOULD NOT BE CLEANED
WITH A WATER JET.
General Cleaning
Stainless steel should be cleaned using a mild detergent,
a soft cloth and hot water. If it is necessary to use a nonmetallic scouring pad, always rub in the direction of the grain
in the metal to prevent scratching. Wash a small area at a
time and rinse the washed area with a clean sponge dipped
into a disinfectant and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth before
it can dry.
Use only stainless steel, wood or plastic tools to scrape
o heavy deposits of grease or oil. Do not use ordinary
steel scrapers or knives, as particles of iron may become
embedded and rust.
NEVER USE STEEL WOOL.
Enameled surfaces should be allowed to cool down before
cleaning. Wipe exposed cleaning, when cool, with a mild
detergent and hot water. Stubborn reside spots may be
removed with a scouring pad. Dry thoroughly with a clean
cloth.
Painted surfaces should only be cleaned with a mild
detergent. Rinse with a clean sponge and hot water. Dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth. NOTE: Use of a scouring pad or
powdered cleanser on painted surfaces will wear away paint
surfaces and must be discouraged.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING continued
Hot Plates
The design of the sealed hot plates provides an easy clean
top surface. Clean any spills with a cloth soaked in a mild
detergent and hot water. For any build up of burned on
grease or food spills, use only a non metallic scouring pad,
always rub in the direction of the grain of the metal to
prevent scratching. Rinse with a sponge dipped in clean hot
water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Fryers
Cleaning The Fry Tank
1. If a liquid frying compound is used, allow the compound
to cool, then raise the element assembly by means of the
handle until the support engages and let the oil run o
the elements into the fry tank. Wipe the surface oil o the
elements to prevent dripping into the unit bottom when
the tank is removed. Lift out the fry tank and empty the
oil into a lter, after ltering it is then ready for re-use.
Clean the tank in the pot wash area with a mild detergent
and hot water. Rinse with a sponge dipped in a vinegar
and water solution. (3/4 cup of vinegar to 1 quart of
water) and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
2. If hydrogenated (solid) frying compound is used that has
been allowed to cool and become solidied, rst turn the
thermostat dial to 121°C (250°F) until the compound is
in a liquid state. Turn the thermostat dial/s to o “O”. Lift
the element assembly by means of the handle until the
support engages and let the oil run o the elements into
the fry tank. Then proceed as described in step 1 to lter
the compound and clean the fry tank.
3. Clean the top of the unit with a cloth soaked in a mild
detergent and hot water, including the front of the
element assembly housing. Rinse with a clean cloth
dipped in clean hot water, Dry thoroughly with a clean
cloth.
4. Repeat step 1 and set the thermostat dial/s to 135°C
(275°F).
5. Repeat steps 2&3. The griddle is now ready for use.
Cleaning The Griddle
1. Use a standard 64-76mm (2-1/2 to 3”) scraper or spatula,
scrape the griddle surface (to remove food particles or oil
residue) towards the grease trough using even back to
front strokes. Deposit debris into the chute.
2. Pour shortening or oil onto the griddle surface, using a
front to back motion. Clean the griddle using a griddle
stone or grill screen. Always with the grain of the steel,
never sideways.
3. Using a clean cloth, rub a thin layer of cooking oil onto
the griddle surface.
4. Remove the grease drawer, empty and wash thoroughly
with a mild detergent and water. Repeat.
5. Re-season the griddle as detailed above. The griddle is
now ready for use.
Griddles Do’s and Don’t’s
D o’s
1. Season the griddle. This will prevent foods from sticking
and make it easier to keep the surface clean.
2. Keep the surface clean. Scraping the surface throughout
production to clear food and oil prevents build up
and will conserve energy and prevent the plate from
overheating.
3. Turn the temperature down during slow periods.
Reducing the temperature or turning sections o during
slow periods will conserve energy and prevent the plate
from overheating.
Griddles
Seasoning The Griddle
1. Using a clean cloth rub a thin layer of cooking oil onto
the griddle surface. Oil should be an unsalted shorting or
high temperature cooking oil.
2. Set the griddle thermostat dial/s to 55°C (130°F) and
heat the griddle surface until the oil begins to caramelize
(turning a golden brown). Once this occurs, turn the
thermostat dial/s to “OFF”.
3. Scrape o the caramelized oil with a standard spatula.
Part # 4521353 (06/17/09)Page 15
Don’t’s
1. Do not use salt to clean the griddle surface. Salt is
corrosive and can cause pitting on the griddle.
2. Do not allow metal utensils (spatula, scraper, etc.) to
nick and/or dent the surface of the griddle. The edges of
these utensils are sharp and will create divots were oil can
collect in and caramelize which causes sticking.
3. Do not use the griddle as a hot top. A large pan or pot will
trap the heat and cause the griddle plates to warp.
Page 16
GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING continued
4. Do not set the thermostat dials to high stop to preheat
faster. Preheating at the desired temperature takes 15-20
minutes. High stop does not heat faster and only serves
to overheat the griddle.
Broiler
Cleaning (After Each Use)
To clean the broiler castings after a period of heavy use, turn
the control switch dial/s to “HI”. This will creates a “self-clean”
burn o of product residue oil, continue until incinerating
smoke reduces. Turn the switch dials to o (“O”) and allow to
cool. With a sti brush, clean the castings from front to back.
Complete the casting cleaning process with a cloth soaked in
a mild detergent and hot water solution. (3/4 cup of vinegar
per quart of water) and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Tilt the castings up and clean the grease collector under the
castings, pushing any food residue through the opening into
the grease tray.
Remove the grease tray, drain and thoroughly clean with a
mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
After cleaning the castings, rub a thin layer of oil onto the
casting surface with a clean cloth. The broiler is now ready for
use.
Food Warmers
Empty the water from the tank and clean any lime deposit
with a non-metallic scouring pad. Clean with a cloth soaked
in a mild detergent and hot water. Rinse with a sponge
dipped in clean hot water and dry with a clean cloth.
The top of the unit can be cleaned with a cloth soaked in
a mild detergent and hot water. For food spill build up, a
non-metallic scouring pad can be used, always rub in the
direction of the grain of the metal to prevent scratching.
Rinse with a sponge dipped in clean hot water and dry
thoroughly.
