SECTION I GENERAL INFORMATION
Toastmaster manufactures a variety of
heavy duty electric griddles for use in
the commercial kitchen. Free standing
models are available. Free standing
models are available. Toasmaster’s
many years of experience in manufacturing commercial cooking equipment
has provide the expertise necessary to
furnish the best electric griddle on the
market. Toastmaster provides quality
products through precise engineering
and production methods as well as the
use of the best materials available. The
extra features provided on Toastmaster griddles helps to create what is often referred to as “The Toastmaster Difference.”
Toastmaster counter top or free standing griddles are furnished with stainless
steel front and sides for easy cleaning
and care as well as a gleaming appearance. All thermostat controls are recessed in a stainless steel mounting cup
for protection. Thermostats have a
range of 150°to 450°F. This low range
temperature setting will allow the griddle
to be used for holding of foods. This
feature is especially helpful on larger
griddles where part of the griddle can
be used for cooking while another part
is used for holding. The larger griddles
also have the heating elements spaced
so that one element and its control covers only 9” of griddle area for greater
versatility, and for more even heat distribution.
All Toastmaster griddles are furnished
with 1/2” thick, one piece hot rolled steel
plate cooking surface. The free standing models are supplied with splash
guards on both sides and rear. All
grease troughs are made of stainless
steel, again for ease in cleaning and for
durability. Even the bottom of the cabinet is enclosed.
The models A710 and A710S are referred to as sandwich grills. These models have both top and bottom grill surfaces that may be ordered as cast aluminum with an aluminum oxide vapor
blast finish (A710) or with a
“Silverstone”* finish (A710S). This top
and bottom grill feature allows for the
grilling of food products, such as grilled
cheese sandwiches, without turning the
sandwich over.
*”Silverstone” is a trademark of the
Dupont Company.
Following the information in this manual
will assist you in making a proper installation. Suggestions for the proper
use and care of your Toastmaster
griddle are also provided.

been made refer to the section on
“Testing the Installation.”
