GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
The grill should be connected to a wall type receptacle, a direct line or individual branch circuit.
An individual branch circuit is preferred. If connected to an overloaded circuit the grill will not
operate properly. The unit should be level when installed. Models equipped with bun boxes
must be level to utilize the self-closing feature of the bun drawer. Adjustable 4-inch legs are
standard on the 75 series and available for all other models.
This grill is equipped for the voltage shown on the nameplate. It will operate on alternating
current only, however, the specifi ed voltage must be applied.
UNLEVEL UNITS COULD RESUL T IN HAVING PRODUCT TRA VEL FROM ONE SIDE
TO THE NEXT, OVER A PERIOD OF TIME.

GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For specifi c information regarding ELECTRONIC GRILL OPERATION see page 7.
The main switch located on the control panel controls all the power to the unit. With the main switch
on, the rollers will turn, heat will be supplied to the bun box, but no heat will be supplied to the rollers
unless the heat controls are turned on. The switch is lighted to indicate when the unit is turned on.
For fl exibility the heating section of the grill is divided into two individually controlled heat sections.
The right control regulates the heat to the rear section and the left control regulates the heat to
the front section. On Infi nite control grills a signal light is provided above each heat control and
indicates when the heated section is on. An additional light is provided on the end housing of
the unit that indicates the position of the main power switch.
All units are equipped with an easily removed bun pan which can be removed by lifting out of
the open bun drawer. This makes daily cleaning of the pan easy.
It is necessary to remove the bun drawer before attempting to remove the drip tray when
access to the rear of the unit is obstructed. To remove the bun drawer, fi rst allow the unit
to cool, remove bun pan, then grab the drawer by both sides and pull it out all the way.
Lift the front to unhook the drawer slide from rear drawer roller. Pull the drawer the remainder
of the way out. Use caution not to drop the drawer when reaching the end of the drawer slide
travel. To reinsert the drawer, fi rst hook the drawer slide over the fi rst right side roller then push
the drawer in until the second roller drops in, doing one side at a time. Repeat for left side rollers.
Reinsert bun pan. Do not operate the grill without the drip tray in place.
COOKING
The heat controls provide an infi nite range of settings for a wide variety of food products and
installation conditions. The size, content and shape of the product and the installation of any
sanitary food shields or sneeze guards will determine the proper heat setting. The National
Sanitation Foundation requires that perishable foods be kept at 140°F or above during
serving periods. Do not keep the food product on a low setting for more than two hours. The
product should be kept refrigerated until ready for use. Cooking time will vary depending on the
starting temperature and the qualities of the product. For best results when cooking hot dogs
use a hot dog made for grilling.
Operating the bun drawer requires fi lling the pan with fresh buns and removing the stale buns
as required. For units equipped with a heated bun drawer (HD) there are no heat adjustment
for the bun drawer, NO WATER IS REQUIRED OR RECOMMENDED.
CAUTION
USE ONL Y PLASTIC OR COATED UTENSILS FOR HANDLING THE FOOD PRODUCT .
METAL COULD SCRATCH THE ROLLER COATING AND AFFECT THE CLEAN
ABILITY OF THE ROLLERS.
CAUTION
INTERNAL DRAWER COMPONENTS & DRAWER CAVITY ARE HEATED. ALLOW
THE DRAWER & CAVITY TO COOL DOWN BEFORE SERVICING OR CLEANING.
5
CAUTION
DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE ROLLERS.
SCRAPES WILL VOID THE W ARRANTY. USE CAUTION WHEN CLEANING A HOT
GRILL TO PREVENT BURNS OR BODILY INJURY.
CLEANING
Before cooking for the fi rst time, wash the rollers with mild soap and water using a soft cloth.
Do not use metal utensils when cooking. Scratches and scrapes will hamper the ability to easily
clean the rollers. Never use steel wool or abrasive cleaners on the rollers. This will damage
the fi nish and the roller bearings. The rollers clean most easily when hot. Use caution when
cleaning to prevent burns and bodily injury. Clean the rollers with a clean wet cloth. Wipe
from the ends to the center to prevent forcing debris into the roller seals. Do not allow the food
product to build up and bake onto the roller surface. The exterior of the unit should be cleaned
using a mild detergent or non-abrasive cleaner. Clean the entire unit daily to insure long life
and satisfactory performance as well as to maintain an attractive appearance. Do not clean
with water jet equipment.
When cleaning the interior bun drawer compartment, remove the bun drawer (see General Operating Instructions on page 5) and clean with mild detergent and warm water.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Contact the factory, a service representative or a local service company for
service or required maintenance. Replacement cord sets must be purchased from
Star Manufacturing International, Inc.
