CONVERSION (Manual Control)
These instructions are for the conversion from Natural Gas to Propane (L.P.) on all models. The
conversion should be done before connecting the unit to the gas supply.
Units are shipped from the factory equipped for use on natural gas. Orifices necessary for LP
(propane) are provided in a bag tied to the valve on the front panel.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS (Manual Control)
Lighting pilot
(For G15, G24, G36, G48 Models)
The pilot light on the appliance has been set at the factory. A screwdriver may be required for the
first lighting to adjust the flame for your elevation.
1. Turn off the manual valve and wait 5 minutes to clear the gas.
2. Turn all knobs to the "OFF" position.
3. Hold an ignition source (match) at the pilot. When the flame is established, remove the
ignition source.
4. Turn the burner knobs to "ON". If the burner does not ignite, promptly open the pilot valve
more. If the pilot flame appears larger than necessary, turn it down and reset burner ignition. The
pilot flame should be as small as possible but large enough to guarantee reliable ignition of the
burners when the knobs are turned to "ON".
Lighting main burner
(For G15, G24, G36, G48 Models)
To light burner, turn knob to “ON.” Then adjust to the desired flame level. The range of adjustment
is virtually infinite between “ON” and “OFF”.
Main burner air supply:
1. For efficient burner operation, 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
streaming flame. Primary air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner.
2. Loosen the screws on the front of the burner and adjust the air shutter to just eliminate the
yellow tips of the burner flame. Lock the air shutter in place by tightening the screws.
Lighting the Main Burners
(For G15T, G24T, G36T, G48T Models)
These Griddles are fitted with individual standing pilots for each burner.
Flame Failure Protection is incorporated for each burner by way of a thermo-electric system which
will shut off the gas supply to that burner in the event that the burner goes out, so that un-burnt
gas is not expelled.
a. Select the burner required, depress and turn the corresponding gas control knob anti-clockwise
to the ‘PILOT’ position.
b. With the gas control knob depressed, manually light the pilot burner.
c. Release the gas control knob after approximately 10-20 seconds after lighting the pilot burner.
d. The pilot burner should stay alight - if not, repeat Steps (b. to c. above.)
e. Rotate the gas control knob anti-clockwise to the desired temperature mark.
f. The main burner will be now ignited automatically.

7
Turning 'OFF' the Main Burners / Pilots
(For G15T, G24T, G36T, G48T Models)
a. To turn 'OFF' the main burner, but keep the pilot burner lit, rotate the gas control knob to the
'PILOT' position. The main burner will extinguish and the pilot will remain lit.
b. To turn 'OFF' the 'PILOT', depress and turn the gas control knob clockwise back to the ‘OFF’
position. The 'PILOT' burner will extinguish.
Note:
Please wait at least 15 seconds to restart the main burners to maintain the best function of the
thermostat valve after turning off the main burners.
CAUTION
All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the valve to the desired flame height is
all that is required to put the unit in service.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to
the units' sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within a room.
It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the
amount of air removed by any ventilating system. Otherwise, a subnormal atmospheric pressure
will occur, affecting operation and causing undesirable working conditions.
A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room
or area in which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft
conditions.
All valves must be checked and lubricated periodically. This must be done by an authorized service
representative in your area.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
SEASON GRIDDLE:
Heat to low temperature (300 - 350 F/150-180C) 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 flame height or 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 & MAINTENANCE
INITIAL CLEANING:
Prior to operating your new griddle, thoroughly wash the griddle surface and the exterior with a
mild detergent or soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners since this might damage the cabinet
finish. If the stainless steel surfaces become discolored, scrub by rubbing only in the direction of
the finished grain.
DAILY CLEANING:
1. Always turn unit off and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Clean thoroughly before
first use.
2. After each use, clean the griddle with wire brush or flexible spatula.
3. Once a day, thoroughly clean back splash, sides and front. Remove the grease drawer, empty
it and wash it out.
4. Once a week, clean the griddle surface thoroughly. If necessary, use a griddle stone, wire
brush or steel wool on the surface. Rub with the grain of the metal while the griddle is
still warm. A detergent may be used on the plate surface to help clean it; but, care must be
taken to be sure the detergent is thoroughly removed. After removal of the detergent, the
surface of the plate should then be covered with a thin film of oil to prevent rusting. Clean
stainless surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth. To remove
discoloration, use a nonabrasive cleaner. 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.
NOTE: Parts protected by the manufacturer or his agent are not to be adjusted by the installer,
unless the installer is an authorized service agent.
