INSTALLATION AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS

RELEASE AGENT CAUTION

If you find it necessary to use a release agent to
keep waffles from sticking, you should NEVER
spray directly onto the grids. Release agents
should always be brushed on because spraying
will oversaturate the grids and the excess has the
possibility of building up inside the baker and
causing damage to the baker. Spraying also uses
far too much release agent and is much more
expensive than brushing on release agent. If you
only have a spray type release agent, then spray
into a container and use the contents with a
pastry brush.

INSTALLATION

For your protection, we recommend that a
qualified electrician install this appliance. The
electrician should be familiar with electrical
installations and your local electrical
requirements. Proper connections and power
supply are essential for efficient performance.
The supply circuit should be properly fused as
required by local electrical code.

Plug the unit into a proper voltage A.C. only wall
outlet. A three prong plug is provide with the
unit. If an adapter is used be sure a good ground
is provided.

LOAD

The rated load is on the nameplate. The line in
the wall outlet must be heavy enough to carry
this load, or the waffle baker will be slow in
performance.

TREATED GRIDS

Grids are treated with a special process to
prevent sticking, but it is advisable to give them
additional treatment as follows:

OPERATING PROCEDURE

TO BREAK IN WAFFLE GRIDS

Turn the power on and when the left side pilot
light goes out the unit is up to proper

temperature. Now take a pastry brush and
spread vegetable oil, butter, or grid release agent
on both grids. The waffle baker should then be
closed for five to ten minutes. The baker is now
ready for use. For proper release of waffles it is
very important that the batter contains the
proper amount of shortening.

MAKING WAFFLES

Once the baker is up to proper temperature and
the left side pilot light has gone off at least one
time, you can proceed as follows:

1. Preset timer to 4 minutes for B510 (all times
dependant on mix type and temperature).

2. Pour in mix and close the top grid and wait 10
seconds.

3. Rotate grid 180 degrees clockwise.

4. Set timer to desired time

5. When timer indicates time is finished rotate
the grid assembly 180 degrees counterclockwise,
open the grid and remove the waffle

6. For next waffle repeat steps 2-5.

NOTE: During long slack periods of the day,
turn of the baker. During short slack periods,
leave grids closed. The pilot light will go on and
off while idling, indicating that the baker is
maintaining a uniform temperature. A Belgian
waffle batter should be thinner than a regular
waffle batter mix. Do not store batter in the
refrigerator and expect the same speed in baking.
Cold batter will be slower in baking. On bakers
that do not have teflon coated grids: In order to
remove carbon from the grids, disconnect waffle
baker from current, place cloth over the bottom
grid, soak with ammonia, close the lid, and leave
over night. Then clean off the residue and season
the grids as described above. This should not be
done on teflon-coated grids. If buildup persists,
you can order a grid cleaning kit which will
remove even the heaviest carbon buildup.

CORD PLUG AND GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS

For your protection, this appliance is equipped
with a 3 conductor load cord, having a grounding
type plug. If you use an adaptor be sure your
system is grounded. Then connect the green

2

wire to a mounting screw of the receptacle. For

ungrounded systems, attach the green adaptor to
a known permanent ground.

CLEANING

Clean outside of baker every day that it is in use.
Do not clean grids unless a buildup of carbon
forms. On bakers that do NOT have teflon
coated grids, in order to remove carbon from
grids, disconnect waffle baker from current, place
cloth over bottom grid, soak with ammonia, close
lid and leave over night. Next day, wire brush
top and bottom grids to remove carbon. Then
heat and season grids. This should not be done
on teflon coated grids. If you use a commercial
carbon remover, make sure it is safe for
aluminum. To keep carbon from building up do
not use a spray grid release but one that you can
use with a pastry brush.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

Contact the factory or one of its representatives
or a local service company for service or
maintenance if required.
