Electrical and grounding connections must comply with the applicable portions of the national
electricalcode and/orother localelectrical codes.
Disconnect electrical powersupply and place a tag at the disconnect switch indicating that you
areworking on thecircuit.
As indicated in Fig. 1, the terminal boxes can be located at either the left front or
the right rear of the griddle. When shipped from the factory, the device has the terminal box attached in the
left front position.The box can be relocated to the alternateposition by removingtwo screws. .
Electrical loadings of the griddles covered by this instruction are tabulated on the appropriate
wiringdiagram.
Griddle is not fused and mustbe connected to a properly fusedcircuit.

GENERAL
U.L.CONDITIONS OF ACCEPTABILITY:
LAYOUT
INSTALLATION
Drop-In Griddles are designed to be installed into metal fixtures or fabricated tops. Fixture or top must be
sufficiently rigid to support device weight without warping. Emphasis is on simplifying the layout and
fabrication. These instructions covers all models. The floor plans for the griddles shows overall and other
key dimensions of the deviceand their relationships to the fixture or top into which they will be installed.
A. This equipment must be installed in an all metal fixture of steel or stainless steel construction, .078
inch thick minimum for the top and supportingframe. Side enclosure to be at least 22 MSG minimum
thickness.
B. A removable bottom enclosure must be provided under each drop-in unit and be made of metal
construction of at least 22 MSG min. If ventilating openings are provided in the bottom enclosure
they must not allow the entrance of a 3/4 inch diameter rod nor be locateddirectly below uninsulated
liveterminals.
C. Minimum spacing between griddle top edge and adjacent items should be: fixture back wall 1-3/4
inch, Fixture side enclosure1 inch, Front control panel 7/8inch, Other drop-in devices1 inch.
D. Controls shallbe mounted on the front verticalsurface of the fixture.
E. For supply connectionsuse wire suitable for at least 90 degrees Celsius (194 degreesFahrenheit).
1. The layouts illustrate the holes to be cut into the metal fixture or fabricated top to accept the griddle.
Also shown are holes to be cut into the fixture front (apron) to accommodate the griddle control
panel. The front-to-back (depth) dimensions for the griddles are not the same.
make sure that the model number you are referring to corresponds with
themodelnumberon the griddlenameplate.
2. Allminimumdimensionsshown mustbe met.
3. After making the proper layout,cut the hole in the top of the fixture.
4. Cut the large hole and drill the control panel holes in the front of the fixture from the layout.
5. The griddle is furnished with a stiffening angle or reinforcement frame assembly that is used to
reinforce the fixture top.This reinforcement must be welded on the perimeter of the counter top cut-
out. The upturned flanges on the reinforcement should be located an equal distance from the sides
of the cut-out. Figure #2 shows a cutaway view of how the stiffening angle appears when welded to
thefixturetop.
(1) Before welding the stiffening angle to the fixture top, assemble the furnished clamps and clamp
screws as shown in figure#2.
(2) Place one clamp in each of theframe assembly slots. Do not tighten the screw.
With all the large holes cut out, the smaller control panel holes drilled, and the stiffening angle welded into
place, the fixture is now readyto receive the griddle.
Before making the
initial cuts into the fixture,
NOTE:

1. Hobart furnishes a gasket or seal that must be
placed around the perimeter of the hole in the
top as shown in Fig. 3. This gasket may be
temporarily held in place with tape. Do not
place the staple securing the gasket ends on
or near a corner.
2. A number of clamps, such as the one shown
in Fig. 3, appear at intervals along the
perimeter. Pull clamps outward so that the
griddle frame clears them when it is dropped
intoplace.
3. Drop the griddle into position by lowering it
into the fixture top hole. Make sure that the
thermostat capillaries are not kinked or
pinched when setting the griddle in place.
With the griddle in place, the gasket or seal
becomescompressed.See Fig. 4.
4. Slide the clamp inward so that it engages the
upper part of the protruding angle from the
griddlebody frame.See Fig. 5.
Slide the clamp sideways so that the notch on
it locks against the reinforcement angle. This
prevents the clamp from sliding out.
5. Tighten the clamp screws against the angle
as shown in Fig. 5.
This tightening forces the clamp to press
down on the griddle body frame extension.
The griddle top is now drawn close to the
fixture top, compressing the gasket and
forming an effective grease guard. Tighten at
least one screw on each side before
tightening all screws. Do not exceed 60 in.-
Ibs.torque whentightening bolts.
6. Slide the tray slide (grease drawer
receptacle) through the cut-out hole on the
apron or front of the fixture, resting it on the
two"U braces.
7. Mount the thermostats to the control panel
and make the pilot light connections per the
accompanying wiring diagram. Before
making any electrical connections, check
nameplate voltage (located on tray slide
under grease drawer) to ensure it matches
voltagebeingapplied.
8. Set the control panel in place and screw it to
the apron, using the 1/2" long thread-forming
screws.
9. Pull the tray slide against the back of the
control panel and secure it with the
appropriatescrews.
10. Slidethe greasedrawerinto place.

CLEANINGTHE GRIDDLEAFTERINSTALLATION
CONTROLS
SEASONINGTHE GRIDDLESURFACE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAREAND CLEANING
After each cooking load,
Each week
Before using the griddle for the first time, be sure to remove the factory-applied rust preventive compound.
Add a mild detergent tohot water and wash the griddlewell. Rinse with a clean,damp cloth and wipedry.
The heat of the griddle surface is controlled by turning the dial knobs (recessed in the front control pane!).
Separate signal lights cycle with each control, whenever the thermostat calls for heat the signal light
associated with it will be on. Each thermostat controls twelve inches of griddle surface width. The
thermostat temperature range is 200-450 degreeFahrenheit, +/- 10 degrees.
After a thorough cleaning, the griddle is ready for seasoning. Preheat the griddle to 400 degrees
Fahrenheit. When the dialed temperature is reached as indicated by the signal lights going off, spread a
light film of cooking oil or fat over the entire surface of the griddle.After two minutes, wipe the griddle clean of
excess oil. Repeat this operation.The griddle is now ready foruse.
1. Preheat the griddle (preheat time for 77-350 degree Fahrenheit is approximately 8 minutes) - Set
the thermostat dials at the correct temperature for the food to be cooked. A red light will flash on
automatically for each section of the griddle when the thermostat is set, and will go off when the
section has reached the set temperature. The signal light will flash on and off during the cooking
operation to show that correct temperature is being maintained. You are now ready to load the
griddle.
2. Load the griddle -After preheating, load the griddle andcook according to recipe.
3. Economy hint -Turn the griddle OFF (or to the lowest thermostat setting) during idle periods.
At the end of each day's operation,turn all temperaturecontrols to "OFF".
scrape the griddle surface with scraper or rigid spatula to remove excess fat and
food particles. Once a day or whenever necessary, thoroughly clean and wipe out the grease trough. As
necessary during use, wipe out accumulated material to provide good drainage. Remove grease drawer,
empty and wash. In general, soap and water with the aid of a sponge or soft cloth will clean the drawer
thoroughly. Wipe clean with a damp clothand dry. Clean control panelwith a damp cloth and dry.
or whenever necessary, clean griddle thoroughly. If desired, use a pumice or griddle stone over
surface. Rub with the grain of the metal while still warm.Avoid steel wool!After each thorough cleaning, the
cooking surface must be re-seasoned. To remove the control knobs for cleaning, pull straight out. Wash in
soapy water. Rinse, dry, and replace on shaft.
