INTRODUCTION

The high performance Market Forge Purr-fect Height Steam Shell Griddle Convection Oven Combo creates a new class of
steam cooking equipment. More heat is delivered per square inch than any other griddle and assures food safety. Addition­ally, steam is injected into the cooking compartments. This technology allows the food to be cooked from both sides, dra­matically decreasing cooking times and allowing for broader menu items. These items include seafood, stir-fry, vegetables
and pork. With the glass window in the cooking lids, food can be observed while cooking.

INSTALLATION

GENERAL: Once the unit is installed it must be elec-

trically grounded and comply with local codes, or in the
absence of codes with the National Electrical Code ANSI
NFPA 70-1999. Installation in Canada must comply with
CSA Standard C22. NO. 109-M1987.

CLEARANCES: Allow at least a three in clearance be­tween the back of the unit and any wall obstruction for
proper ventilation, room for plumbing and electrical con­nections. The ventilation opening on the back of the grid­dle must have access to cool air. Griddle needs to be placed
on a level surface to provided ultimate performance. A non­level unit could lead to heating element damage.

THIS PROCEDURES SHOULD BE FOLLOWED BY
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY. DAMAGE WILL
VOID WARRANTY!

All griddles are shipped with a de-scaling filter. Installing
the de-scaling filter according to the manufacturers instruc­tions. See manual included with de-scaler. If de-scaler filter
is not included with the griddle when shipped, contact the
factory. Failure to use approved de-scaler system may void
warranty.

TO INSTALL:

Unpack carefully. Remember to report any damage to

1.
the freight company immediately.
Do not remove any tags or labels until the unit is in-

2.
stalled and working properly.
Set the unit on a level floor.

3.
Install lids as shown in figures 1 through 3.

4.

CAUTION:
Glass Doors!
Use extra caution
when unpacking.

Figure 1

Lift lid with both
hands and set para­ llel to back of unit.

Figure 2

Figure 3

Once lid is securely
seated under counter­weight bar, lower lid
slowly parallel to surface
of griddle.

WATER CONNECTION:

Connect to cold waterline, 1/4” tubing. DO NOT CONNECT
TO HOT WATER SOURCE! Waterline pressure should be
30 PSI minimum. Recommended 1/4” stainless steel braided
hose for water supply line. Dp not use transparent water tub­ing. Connect 1/4” tubing to drain fitting and run to drain loca­tion.

A water de-scaling filter system must be installed to comply
with warranty. If you do not have your own water de-scaling
and filter system contact our factory immediately.

Slide lid until lift flange
on lid is under counter­weight bar.

INSTALLATION

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS:

Electrical supply to unit must conform to the National Electrical Codes. See appliance nameplate for service requirements.
For proper connection of field wiring to junction box, see the wiring diagram on page 4-53. Make sure the input voltage
and phase match the requirements shown on the serial plate. (The serial plate is located on the rear of the grill cabinet.)
NOTE: Depending on the model of the griddle it may require two power sources. DO NOT ALLOW ANY TAMPERING
OR ADJUSTMENT OF ANY CONTROL OR WIRING. THE UNIT IS FACTORY SET AND ADJUSTMENT OF ANY
INTERNAL COMPONENT OTHER THAN THE JUNCTION BOX CAN VOID WARRANTY.

FILLING BOILER WITH WATER:

CAUTION: MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF AND GRIDDLE IS COOL.

TURN OFF WATER SUPPLY:

Locate boiler water fill valve located front right of the griddle and remove caps (A & B). Locate purge valve
left back of griddle inside power head and remove caps (C & D). Detach existing water fill hose rear of
unit (F) and attach to boiler water fill located front right of griddle (A). Open valve; allow water to run until
water exits purge valve then close purge valve. Close fill valve. Turn water line at its source and disconnect.
Replace caps on all fittings.

griddle.

a. Main power switch.
b. Power switch on the steam
generator.

2. Set control to the desired temperature.
(265oF minimum to cook, heating period is 20 mins.)

3. Allow griddle to reach set point temperature before
beginning to cook. Heating period is 20 mins.

STARTING AUTOMATIC STEAM INJECTION LIDS
WHEN COOKING:

NOTE: Steam injection will not turn on unless lid is lowered
to closed position and pushed towards back of griddle.

Slightly lifting lid and pulling forward will turn off steam.

HOW TO SET TEMPERATURE:

A. Actual temperature reading.

B. Desired set temperature.

C. Factory set program function.

1. Increase desired set temperature.

2. Decrease desired set temperature.

Pushing lid back will turn steam back on.

GRIDDLE SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE FOR UN­HEATED STORAGE:

1. Disconnect water and electrical supply.

2. Water will need to be drained and blown out with com­ pressed air from all components. It is recommended that
a qualified service agent do this.

OPERATION

GRIDDLE CLEANING AND SEASONING:

1. Seasoning is a process to protect the griddle from rusting and prevent foods from sticking to the surface
during cooking.

2. Use only a small amount of vegetable oil, such as Wesson. Spread is around evenly (avoiding Corners)
while heating.

3. Pour salt over griddle surface and rub in circular motions over entire griddle surface with a handle and
grill screen.

4. When the oil begins to smoke, turn off griddle and squeegee off salt and oil. Let griddle cool for a 30
minute period.

5. Repeat the process one of two more times.

6. Re-season as needed.

7. Do not use water, soaps or griddle cleaners to clean griddle surface. If you do, you must re-season griddle
surface. In between normal cooking operation scrape griddle with a plastic scraper to keep clean. DO
NOT THROW COLD WATER ON A HOT GRIDDLE! it may cause the griddle surface to warp.
