Air Supply and Ventilation
Adequate ventilation and air supply must be provided in order for the griddle to operate properly and efficiently. The area in front and above the griddle must be clear to avoid any obstruction of flow of combustion and ventilation air. Do not connect the griddle flue directly to a building exhaust system or place the flue directly into the plenum of an exhaust hood as it will adversely affect the gas combustion of the unit.
Gas Connection
An accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed in gas supply line ahead of the unit. The size of the supply pipe must be sized to accommodate all of the gas-fired equipment that may be connected to the gas supply. Check with your local gas company as to the proper size. Only pipe sealant resistant to the action of LP gas should be used on pipe joint. Before attempting to light the griddle, check all joints for leaks using a soap and water solution.
Units are shipped from the factory equipped for use with natural gas. A conversion kit is included.
Conversion from Natural Gas to Propane
If conversion to propane (LP) is desired, the conversion should be completed before connecting the unit to the gas supply.
▲ CAUTION: Ensure that the appliance is isolated from the gas supply before commencing servicing.
▲ CAUTION: These conversions should only be carried out by qualified persons. All connections must be checked for leaks before re-commissioning the appliance.
Orifices necessary for propane are provided in a bag tied to the valve on the front panel.
- Turn "off" the gas supply at the main supply.
- Remove the burner from top of the gas pipe, taking care not to damage the thermocouples, if unit is equipped.

Adjustments
Main Burner Air Supply
- A proper balance of gas volume and primary air supply must be maintained which will result in complete combustion. Insufficient air supply results in a yellow tipped flame. Primary air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner.
- Loosen the screws on the front of the burner and increase the opening of the air shutter to eliminate the yellow tips of the burner flame. Lock the air shutter in place by tightening the screws.
Lighting Instructions (Thermostat Control)
⚠️ CAUTION: All burners are lit from burning pilots. Turn the control knob to the desired temperature.
All burners have individual standing pilots which allows the main burners to cycle 'ON' - 'OFF' without the need to manually ignite the burner.
Flame failure protection is incorporated for each burner which will shut off the gas supply to that burner if flame is lost.
- Select the burner required, depress the gas control knob, and rotate counterclockwise to the 'pilot' position.
- With the gas control knob held in the depressed position, press the piezo igniter button to ignite the pilot burner.
- Hold in the gas control knob for approximately 10-15 seconds, then release. The pilot burner should remain lit. (If not, repeat steps 1 to 3 above after waiting for 5 minutes.)
- Rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise to the desired temperature mark.
- The main burner will ignite automatically.
- Turn the main burner off: Turn the gas control knob clockwise to the "pilot" position. The main burner will extinguish and the pilot burner will remain alight.
- Turn all the burners off: Turn the gas control knob fully clockwise to the '•' position. The main burner and the pilot burner will extinguish.
- Wait 5 minutes before relighting.
Preparing Griddle
Initial Cleaning
The griddle surface is protected with a protective coating. To remove this coating, light the burners and wait approximately 5 minutes for the griddle to heat up, wet the entire griddle surface with clear water, and add some griddle cleaner to the water. Let the cleaner work a few minutes, then wipe the cooking surface dry.
Seasoning
Heat to low temperature (300°F - 350 °F/150°C - 180°C) and pour on a small amount of cooking oil, about one ounce (30cc) per square foot of surface. Spread the oil over the entire griddle surface with a cloth to create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with a cloth. Repeat this procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick, mirror-like surface.
Operation
Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking for preheating. Set the knobs to the desired temperature. Each valve will control the gas flow to the burner to bring that area of the unit up to the set temperature. If different temperature settings are to be used, adjoining areas should be set at progressively higher temperatures using the lowest temperatures on the outside burners. A uniform and systematic approach to the loading of the unit will produce the most consistent product results.
Cleaning
Note: Use only non-abrasive cleaners. Abrasive cleaners scratch the finish of your unit, marring its appearance and making it susceptible to dirt accumulation. Do not use steel wool, other abrasive cleaners or cleaners/sanitizers containing chlorine, iodine, ammonia or bromine chemicals as these will deteriorate the material and shorten the life of the unit. If the stainless steel surfaces become discolored, scrub by rubbing only in the direction of the finished grain.
Daily Cleaning:
- Always turn unit off and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
- Clean the griddle surface thoroughly. If necessary, use a griddle stone.
- After cleaning griddle surface, coat with cooking oil to prevent rusting.
- Remove the grease pan, empty it and wash it with a mild detergent.
- Clean stainless steel or chromed surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft, dry cloth.
- Once a day, thoroughly clean backsplash, sides, and front.
Weekly Cleaning
- Clean unit thoroughly. Clean stainless steel or chromed surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft, dry cloth. A mild detergent may be used. To remove discolorations, use a non-abrasive cleaner.
- To remove the drip pan, pull by handle through the opening in the front panel.
- Burner air shutter openings must be kept clean. Main burner ports must be kept clean. Clean burners with a stiff brush.
- After each "weekly" cleaning, the griddle must be seasoned again. If the griddle usage is very high, the "weekly" cleaning procedures may be done more often than once a week.
Air shutters should be cleaned of lint and dirt periodically.
Contact Grindmaster-Cecilware if major repairs or maintenance is required.
