The ideal method of ventilating a range is the use of
a properly designed canopy which should extend
approximately six inches (6”) beyond all sides of the
appliance and six feet (6’) six inches (6”) from the oor.
A strong exhaust fan will create a vacuum in the room, for an
exhaust system vent to work properly, replacement air must
enter the room in which the vent is located.
All gas burners and pilots need sucient air to operate and
large objects should not be placed in front of this oven which
would obstruct the air ow through the front.

Assembly of Battery
All heavy duty batteried equipment is aligned and tted at
the factory, from left to right and must be installed in this
order. There is a diagram provided with every heavy duty
battery.
All models described, except model M110XMmay be
installed to battery with GARLAND M/MS/MST40 Series
Ranges, sharing common manifold connections.
A. All such units should be placed in their respective battery
position. Detach valve panels to prevent damage,
remove them from the area where the battery is being
assembled.

Part # 1382680 Rev 3 (05/10/11)Page 8
INSTALLATION Continued
B. Level each unit (to the oven rack) by adjusting the six inch
(6”) legs (refer back to Item 1 for limitations), or where
legs are not used, adjust level with shims. Readjust legs, if
required.
C. Connect units together by mating the unions at each
end of the manifold. (Adjoining units must have
matching unions, unless the union parts are of the
same specications, a leak proof connection cannot be
assured.) Hand tighten unions at this point.
D. The units should be fastened at the rear by inserting 5/16”
bolts through the holes provided at the rear of the burner
box sides. Install washer and nut and hand tighten. Be
sure of proper unit alignment in the battery before nal
tightening of these bolts or unions. Improper tightening
will cause “fanning” or “bowing” of batteried units.
The nal tightening of the union should be accomplished
by using a suitable spanner wrench. If such a wrench
is not available, the GARLAND union collar has special
ridges, and a cold chisel can be driven against these
ridges to properly seat and seal the union.
E. The manifold of this unit or the manifold of which is
a part of must be equipped with a certied pressure
regulator suitable for battery application and adjustable
for an outlet pressure at the manifold as specied on the
rating plate.

Pressure Regulators
1. Must have a maximum regulation capacity for the total
connected load.
2. The pressure regulator(s) installed must be listed by a
nationally recognized agency.
3. The pressure regulator(s) must have a pressure
adjustment range to allow adjustment to the manifold
pressure on the appliance rating plate.
4. Unless the manifold pressure on all connected appliances
is the same, a separate pressure regulator must be
supplied for each appliance(s) having diering manifold
pressures.
5. Gas supply lines may be connected at right, left or both
ends of a battery or at the TEE connections on spreader
plates. If ve (5) or more units are placed in a battery,
more that one (1) supply line should be used. A readily
accessible, approved type of hand shut-o valve should
be installed on each supply line.
WARNING: Local codes may require that the pressure
regulator be externally vented. This will be supplied by
others.
Testing and Adjustments
All ttings and pipe connections must be tested for
leaks. Use approved gas leak detectors, soap solutions or
equivalent, checking over and around the ttings and pipe
connections. DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to all gas
lines and ttings require that valve panel(s) lower front
panel(s), oven rack(s) be removed. It may be necessary to
remove or at least raise and securely prop griddles, hot
tops and top grates. All parts removed (including fasteners)
should be stored safely for re-use.
Testing
1. Be sure that all valves and thermostats are in the “OFF”
position.
2. Turn on the main gas supply valve. Light all top section
pilots.
3. Leak test all valves and ttings as described in the

separate from the thermostat, turn this valve on and
set the thermostat at 500 degrees. If the range oven
thermostat has an “OFF” position on the dial the
thermostat is equipped with an internal, integral oven
shut-o valve. Set this thermostat dial to 500 degrees. In
both cases, gas will now ow to the oven burner.
6. Leak test all valves, ttings, etc. As above. Correct any
leaks and retest.
7. Shut o all range valves and set thermostat dials to “O’
or low position.
All units are tested and adjusted at the factory. However,

The motor on your range convection oven is maintenance
free since it is constructed with self lubricating sealed ball
bearings. It is designed to provide durable service when
treated with ordinary care. We have a few suggestions to
follow on the care of your motor.
A. When the motor is operating, it cools itself internally by
air entering the rear of the motor case, provided proper
clearance has been allowed.
B. Since the blower wheel is in the oven cavity it is at the
same temperature as the oven. If the motor is stopped
while the oven is hot, the heat from the blower wheel is
conducted down the shaft and into the armature of the
motor. This action could shorten motor life.
C. We recommend, at the end of the bake or roasting
period, when the oven will be idle for any period of time
or before shutting down completely, that the doors
be left open, and by use of the cool-down position on
the fan switch, the fan continues to run for at least 20
minutes.
Note: The convection oven motor should never be turned
“OFF” during cooking or when the oven is “HOT”

MAINTENANCE
We suggest maintenance and repairs to be performed by
GARLAND authorized service agent. You will nd a listing of
agencies in your information manual.
Painted Finishes
Establish a regular cleaning schedule. Any spills should be
wiped o immediately.
The oven should be permitted to cool down before cleaning
exterior surfaces. Wipe exposed cleanable surface when cool
with a mild detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots
may be removed with a light weight non metallic scouring
pad. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
NOTE: Many parts of the commercial range are raw steel, (i.e.
hot tops, griddles, springs, door hooks, etc.) and can react
to moisture, forming rust. This occurrence is normal and not
considered a factory defect. Clean with a stainless steel or
ber pad. A coating of salt free oil may be applied.
Stainless Steel Finishes
For routine cleaning just wash with a hot water and
detergent solution. Wash just a small area at a time or the
water will evaporate leaving the chemicals behind causing
streaking. Rinse the washed area with a clean sponge dipped
in a sanitizing solution and wipe dry with a soft cloth before
it can dry.
Use a paste (of water and a mild scouring powder) if you
have to, but never rub against the grain. All stainless steel
has been polished in one direction. Rub with the polished
lines to preserve the original nish. Then thoroughly rinse as
before.

Part # 1382680 Rev 3 (05/10/11)Page 16
MAINTENANCE Continued
To prevent nger prints there are several stainless steel
polishes on the market that leave an oil or waxy lm. Do not
use on surfaces that will be in contact with food. Stainless
steel may discolor if overheated. These stains can usually be
removed by vigorous rubbing with a scouring powder paste.
Use only stainless steel, wooded or plastic tools if necessary
to scrape o heavy deposits of grease and oil. Do not use
ordinary steel scrapers of knives as particles of the iron may
become imbedded and rust. STEEL WOOL SHOULD NEVER
BE USED. Either a typical bleach solution or hot water can be
used to sanitize stainless steel without harm.
Oven Interior (Porcelain Enamel)
NOTE: Disconnect line cord (if applicable) from power
supply before cleaning or servicing.
1. Before cleaning oven interior, remove all oven racks
and guides (if “RC” base). Oven racks and guides can be
cleaned with a mild soap and warm water or run through
dish washer.
2. The porcelain interior can be cleaned with oven cleaners
such as “Easy-O”, or “Dow Oven cleaner”. Apply only
when oven is cold.
Oven Interior – Optional continuous Clean
NOTE: Disconnect line cord (if applicable) from power
supply before cleaning or servicing.
1. “Break-In Period” – When the oven is new, operate the
oven for at least two hours at high heat, with the oven
empty, before normal cooking operating. Continue
preheating the oven for two hours prior to use during
the rst two weeks. During this break-in period, it is
important that the oven surfaces be kept clean of
excessive soiling due to spillage.
2. How to put “continuous cleaning” action to work: Each
day, after baking and roasting operations have ceased,
empty the oven, turn the temperature control up to
high heat (500 degrees). This high heat will accelerate
the cleaning action and reduce the time required to
eectively clean the oven. Usually the cleaning operation
will take about 45 to 60 minutes.
3. Heavy Staining – When the oven appears soiled, due to
heavy staining, we suggest preheating the empty oven
each day for 1 or 2 hours (depending on the condition of
the oven) for eective results. Also ordinary household
ammonia has proven to be eective in removing baked-
on “soil” build-up, and has the benecial eect of keeping
the microscopic “pores” of the coating open and free to
perform its cleaning action. An occasional light swabbing
with household ammonia while the oven is at room
temperature will prove extremely benecial.
Abrasives should not be used – in order to maintain
continuous cleaning action, it is very important to avoid
the use of abrasive materials such as steel wool scouring
pads, abrasives or sharp implements which can cause
permanent damage to the surface coating. In addition,
oven cleaners such as “Easy-O” or “Dow Oven Cleaner”
will clog the “PORES” of the special coating and will retard
the cleaning action.
4. Period “Tune-Up” – although the oven appears clean, we
recommend operating the oven at high heat for 2 hours
approximately once each moth. This will insure against
build-up of solids in hard to see places and in the pores of
the coating.
Automatic Pilot Valve
The automatic pilot valve is a protective device which allows
gas to ow to the burner only when the pilot burner is
burning.
A too loose or too tight connection of the thermocouple nut
to the automatic pilot valve can prevent the thermocouple
from activating the valve. It should be drawn up nger tight
and then TIGHTENED ONLY 1/4 TURN WITH A WRENCH.
Griddle Seasoning
A. Remove all factory applied protective material by
washing with hot water, mild detergent or soap solution.
B. Apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the griddle surface,
about one ounce per square foot of griddle surface.
Spread over the entire griddle surface with a cloth to
create a thin lm. Wipe o any excess oil with a cloth.
C. Light all burners, set at lowest possible setting. Some
discoloring will occur when heat is applied to steel.
D. Heat the griddle slowly for 15 to 20 minutes. Then wipe
away oil. Repeat the procedure 2 to 3 times until the
griddle has a slick, mirror like nish. Do this until you have
reached the desired cooking temperature.

Part # 1382680 Rev 3 (05/10/11) Page 17
MAINTENANCE Continued
IMPORTANT: Do not attain high (on valve control) or 450
degrees (on thermostat control) during “SEASONING” period.
The griddle will not require reseasoning if it is used properly.
If the griddle is over heated and produce begins to stick
to the surface it may be necessary to repeat the seasoning
process again. If the griddle is cleaned with soap and water it
will be necessary to reseason the griddle surface again.
Griddle Cleaning
DO NOT use water on griddle tops while still hot or DO
NOT COOL BY USING ICE! THIS WILL CAUSE GRIDDLE PLATE
TO WARP AND POSSIBLE CRACK. THIS IS NOT A FACTORY
DEFECT.
To produce evenly cooked, perfectly browned griddle
products, keep griddle free from carbonized grease.
Carbonized grease on the surface hinders the transfer of
heat from the griddle surface to food product. This results
in uneven browning and loss of cooking eciency, and
worst of all, carbonized grease tends to cling to the griddle
foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and unappetizing
appearance. To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak
performance, follow these simple instructions:
A. AFTER EACH USE clean griddle thoroughly with a grill
scraper or spatula. Wipe o any excess debris left from
cooking process.
B. ONCE A DAY clean griddle surface with a grill brick and
grill pad. Remove grease container and clean thoroughly,
in same manner as any ordinary cooking utensil.
C. ONCE A WEEK clean griddle surface thoroughly. If
necessary, use a grill stone or grill pad over the griddle
surface. Rub with grain of the metal while still warm A
detergent may be used on the plate surface to help clean
it, but care must be taken to be sure it is thoroughly
removed. After removal of detergent, the surface of the
plate should be covered with a thin lm of oil to prevent
rusting.
To remove discoloration, use a non-abrasive cleaner.
Before re-using the griddle must be reseasoned. Keep
griddle drain tube to grease container clear at all times on
those models without side grease container.
CAUTION: This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is
relatively soft and can be scored or dented by careless use
of spatula. Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate
surface. This will cause food to stick in those areas. Also, note
since this is a steel griddle if a light coating of oil is not always
present rust will develop on unexposed areas.
Open Top Burners
Periodically burners should be removed and cleaned with
soap and hot water. You may soak the burner in a bucket of
hot soapy water and brush o any burnt on grease or debris.
Allow the cast iron burner to dry thoroughly before installing
into the range. If the burner ports are blocked or plugged
with grease, it will be necessary to clear the ports with a wire
or blunt instrument. Cast iron top grates and ring grates
– clean thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent. You
may also clean with a wire brush to remove baked-on food
particles.
Top Grates
Seasoning Cast Iron Top Grates
1. Remove the cast iron top grates from the range.
2. Wash the cast iron top grates thoroughly with a mild soap
and warm water.
3. Dry the cast-iron top grates thoroughly with a clean cloth.
4. Immediately after drying, season the top grates lightly
with a non-toxic oil, (Liquid vegetable oil or Pam spray oil).
WARNING: DO NOT SEASON THE TOP GRATES WHILE ON THE
RANGE TOP! Seasoning grates on the range top over an open
ame could cause a ash re.
5. After seasoning, replace the top grates onto the range.
Turn all the range top sections “ON LOW”. Allow the top
sections to burn in this manner for at least 20 minutes
before using pots or pans on the top grates.
SEASONING OF THE TOP GRATES WILL BE REQUIRED
WHENEVER THEY HAVE BEEN CLEANED. FAILURE TO SEASON
GRATES WILL CAUSE RUSTING.
CAST IRON TOP and RING GRATE(s) can be cleaned with mild
soap and warm water for baked on material, a wire brush can
be used. Dry thoroughly, Lightly coat with vegetable oil to
help prevent rust from forming. At the rear of the cast iron
top grate there are spill shields. These should be removed
and cleaned. Replace after cleaning to prevent grease and
spillovers dripping down the back of range.

Part # 1382680 Rev 3 (05/10/11)Page 18
Cast Iron Hot tops and Spectro-Heat Tops
DO NOT use water on tops while still hot or DO NOT COOL BY
USING ICE!
While the surface is still slightly warm, wipe down with a
clean burlap cloth. Burnt on spillage should be scraped o. If
necessary, remove the plate and wash in a sink with soap and
hot water. Dry thoroughly. In damp climates, wipe down with
a light coating of oil to prevent rusting. Avoid excessive use
of water as this could damage the surface and the controls
below.
NOTE: Cast Iron Hot tops & Spectro-Heat Tops surface will
“tone” (blue/brown discoloration) from heat. This toning will
not diminish function or operating and is not a defect.

ADJUSTMENTS
Pilot Adjustment
All pilot adjustment valves are mounted on the range top
manifold.
If required the open burner pilot should be adjusted so that
the tip of the pilot ame reached the middle of the ash tube
opening. This ame may show a slight yellow tip.
The pilot burner for the griddle or hot top burner should
provide for rapid ignition of the burner but should not
impinge on any part of the burner. When properly adjusted it
should neither lift o the burner nor should it show a yellow
tip.
Burner Gas/Air Adjustments
Variations in eld conditions, rough handling of the
equipment in transit may indicate the need for adjustment
of primary air to the burners. Check operation and adjust
as below to provide a sharp blue ame at full rate (open
valve fully so that the thermostat is calling for maximum gas
ow). On the burner (star, “H” griddle, knuckle, broiler, oven
burners) locate the air shutter. Loosen the lock-nut so that
the air shutter turns freely. Reinstall burner. Turn on gas low
and ignite burner. Rotate air shutter to obtain the following:
1. Open (Star) Burner: 1/2” stable, sharp inner blue cones.
2. Hot tops, griddles: 5/16” stable, sharp inner blue cones.
3 Knuckle burners: 4” to 6” stable, blue ame, slight yellow
tips.
4. Broiler burners: 3 1/2” to 4” stable, blue ame, slight
yellow tips.
If the burner ames are sharp but lift o the burner ports,
reduce the amount of primary air by closing the air shutter.
NOTE: The rates shown in the chart in the specication
section are maximum rates and must not be exceeded

4. Making sure the oven temperature control dial is not
disturbed, turn the by-pass ame adjusting screw
clockwise to decrease, or counter-clockwise to increase
the ame on the burner to the lowest possible stable
ame. When properly adjusted, the by-pass ames will
cover the entire length of the burner.
Calibration Instructions
Field calibration is seldom necessary and should not
be resorted to unless experience with cooking results
undoubtedly indicate that the control is not maintaining
the temperature for which the dial is set. To check oven
temperatures when calibrating, use only a reliable mercury
thermometer, or preferably an oven pyrometer. To check
calibration, proceed as follows:
1. Place the thermocouple of the test instrument or reliable
mercury thermometer in the center of the oven.
2. Turn the oven temperature control knob to 400°F, (204°C),
and allow the oven to cycle at least three times.
3. Continue to monitor the oven temperature, recording
the readings at 5 minute intervals until three successive
readings are within 5°F, (2°C), of each other.
If the temperature does not read within 15°F, (8°C), of the dial
setting, recalibrate as follows.
1. Remove the oven temperature control dial, making sure
the setting is not disturbed.
2. Hold the calibration plate, (located directly behind the
control dial), and loosen the two calibration lock screws
until the plate can be rotated independently of the
control.
3. Turn the calibration plate until the temperature indicated
on the plate corresponds with the reading on the test
instrument. Hold the plate in place and tighten the
screws rmly.
4. Repeat step 3 in the previous section, checking the
temperature to ensure the adjustment has been made
properly.
5. Replace the temperature control dial.
NOTE: If adjustment of the calibration plate is prevented by
the position of the lock screws, the screws can be moved to
other holes that have been tapped for them.

BJWA Griddle Thermostat
When the griddle surface reaches the temperature for which
the dial is set the control cuts down the ow of gas to the
amount required to keep the griddle at that temperature.
The control must be adjusted to pass enough gas to keep the
entire burner ignited. To properly adjust the by-pass setting,
proceed as follows:
1. Light the burner by turning the dial fully “ON.”
2. After 5 minutes, turn the dial clockwise to a point slightly
past, (to the right of), the rst mark on the dial.
3. Remove the dial by pulling it straight o.
4. With a screwdriver, turn the by-pass adjustment screw
counter-clockwise to decrease the ame, or clockwise to
increase the ame, until there is a minimum ame along
the entire burner.

1. Use a Robertshaw test instrument with a disc-type
thermocouple, or a reliable “surface” type thermometer.
(NOTE: A drop of oil on the face of the disc will provide for
better contact.)
2. Turn ALL griddle control dials to 400°F, (240°C). allow the
temperature to stabilize by waiting for the thermostat(s)
to cycle three times before taking a temperature reading.
3. Check the temperature reading when the control cuts
down to by-pass, by placing the sensor rmly on the
griddle surface directly above the sensing bulb of the
control. Test instrument should read from 350° to 410°F,
(196° to 213°C). If the dial setting does not agree with
the test instrument reading within the above limits,
recalibrate.
NOTE: NO ATTEMPT SHOULD BE MADE TO RECALIBRATE
THE GRIDDLE CONTROL WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD IF
THE TEMPERATURE IS WITHIN ±20°F OF THE DIAL SETTING.
RECALIBRATION SHOULD BE PERFORMED IF THE CONTROL IS
FOUND TO BE INACCURATE BY MORE THAN ±20°F, AND LESS
THAN ±50°F. IF THE CONTROL IS FOUND TO BE INACCURATE
BY MORE THAN ±50°F DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD, THE
CONTROL WILL BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY.
To recalibrate:
1. Remove the dial and push out the center metal insert.
2. Replace the dial without the insert.
3. Holding the dial rmly in place, insert a screwdriver
through the center of the dial and seat it in the slot in
the calibration screw. DO NOT TURN THIS SCREW! Exert
pressure on the screwdriver to push the calibration stem
inward.
4. While holding the calibration stem pushed inward with
the screwdriver, turn the control DIAL to the temperature
indicated on the test instrument. Release pressure on the
calibration stem.
5. Remove the dial from the control, replace the dial insert,
and reinstall the dial on the control.
6. Set the dial to 450° F, (232° C). Check temperature
as before. If the temperature is not now within the
acceptable ±20°F, (4°C), range, the sensing element is
inoperative and the control should be replaced.
