Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air, under the unit by the legs or behind the unit by the
flue.
Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber is required. Do not place objects between the
bottom of the unit and the counter top.
There must be adequate clearance for removal of the front panel. All major parts except the burners are
removable thru the front if the gas line is disconnected.
European Community Installation Instructions:
"THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE FITTED BY A COMPETENT PERSON. IN THE UK, CORGI REGISTERED
INSTALLERS (INCLUDING THE REGIONS OF BRITISH GAS) UNDERTAKE TO WORK TO SAFE AND
SATISFACTORY STANDARDS. THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GAS
SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS AND THE RELEVANT BUILDING REGULATIONS / IEE.
REGULATIONS. DETAILED RECOMMENDATIONS ARE CONTAINED IN THE FOLLOWING BRITISH
STANDARD CODES OF PRACTICE -BS 6172, BS 5440 PART 2, BS 6891"
"THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES IN FORCE"
"MUST BE INSTALLED IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA. Ventilation requirements ie. B.S. 5440."
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
TSGGT and TSGGM Griddles are furnished with either a pilot safety valve or a standing pilot (not available in
the European Community). Please follow the instructions for your unit.
Pilot Safety Valve Lighting Instructions
1. Turn on main gas supply to unit, on-off valve located behind the unit (not supplied with unit).
2. Turn the burner control knobs to "OFF" position. Wait at least 5 minutes to allow any gas which may have
accumulated in the firebox compartment to escape.
3. Through the hole in the front panel, press red button on the pilot safety valve and light through observation
hole in firebox. Keep red button on pilot safety depressed for at least 1 minute after pilot has lit. If pilot does
not light, repeat this step.
Standing Pilot Lighting Instructions (Not Available in the European Community)
The pilot lights on the griddles have been set at the factory. A screwdriver maybe required for the first lighting to
adjust the flame for your elevation.
1. Turn off the manual shut off valve and wait 5 minutes to clear the gas.
2. Turn all knobs to the "OFF" position.
3. Turn the manual shut off valve on.
4. Hold an ignition source (match) at the pilot. When the flame is established, remove the ignition source.

6
5. Turn the burner knobs to "HI". 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
"HI".
Lighting main burner
To light burner, turn knob to “max.” Then back off to the desired flame level. The range of adjustment is virtually
infinite between high and off. (At small flame, there is a preset low).
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.
European Community
If adjustment becomes necessary in the field, it should be done by a factory authorized and trained technician
who should seal the screw after the adjustment to safeguard against unauthorized tampering by the end user.
All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the thermostat to the desired temperature 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, which will effect
operation and cause 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.
OPERATING 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 plate 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 griddle will produce the most consistent product results.

7
CLEANING / MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Use only non-abrasive cleaners. Abrasive cleaners could scratch the finish of
your unit, marring it’s 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 stainless steel and glass
material and shorten the life of the unit.
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.
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 splash back, 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.
CAUTION: Clean the regulator at least once a month. Make sure the vent opening is open
and not blocked in any way. Failure to do so will cause variations in pressure. Your unit
will not function as well and it could shorten the life of the product
Extended Shutdown:
Turn the manual shutoff valve to "OFF"; (field installed valve not supplied by the manufacturer); turn all control
knobs to the "OFF" position; and shut off the pilot flame by turning the adjustment on the pilot valve.
If the griddle is to be shut down for an extended period, put a heavy coat of grease over the griddle plate.
SERVICE / REPAIR
NOTE: THIS APPLIANCE MUST ONLY BE SERVICED BY AN AUTHORIZED AGENT.
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.
If you have any questions or problems contact your nearest Tri-Star Service Representative.

TSGGT CALIBRATION PROBE LOCATION
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE FOR TSGGT GRIDDLES
Locate the reading positions
Make sure the griddle surface is clean. Grease or food particles on the griddle will result in inaccurate
thermostat calibration.
Mark the locations where the temperature probe will be placed for testing. See the sketch provided. Starting
from the left side of the griddle, measure 8” to the right and 10-5/8” from the rear splash guard. With a felt tip
pen mark this location. This is the location directly over the center of the left thermostat bulb. From this point
measure right 10” remaining 10-5/8” from the rear splash guard. Mark this location with a felt tip pin. This is the
location over the next thermostat bulb. For a 36” TSGGT repeat this one more time 10” to the right and for the
48” TSGGT repeat this twice more 10” to the right always remaining 10-5/8” from the splash guard. After all
locations are marked center the temperature probe on each marked location, and then trace a circle around
the probe.
This procedure will place the temperature probe over the center of each thermostat bulb, and this is the only
place temperature readings should be taken.
Set all thermostats to 350ºF and allow them to cycle three to four times, or allow the griddle to preheat for ½
hour before proceeding. This makes sure the griddle temperatures have saturated the surface.
Determine the differential
Note the temperature for each section of the griddle as the burners ignite.
Note the temperature for each section of the griddle as the flame extinguishes.
The flame extinguish temperature minus the ignition temperature equals the differential.
EXAMPLE: Flame extinguished 367ºF
Flame ignition 341ºF
Difference 26º F = Differential

10
If the temperature differential is large than 75ºF, there is probably a problem with your system. It may not be the
thermostat. First make sure you thermostat probe is flat against the griddle plate and is making good contact.
Dirt under the probe will cause inaccurate readings. Next make sure the thermostat bulb is held tightly in its
holder. If you can pull the capillary tube and the bulb moves it is not held tight enough against the griddle plate.
This will cause variations in the temperature of the griddle surface. If both of these items have been checked
and you still have a differential over 75ºF then the thermostat is bad replace it.
Determine the average temperature
Note the temperature for each section of the griddle as the burners ignite.
Note the temperature for each section of the griddle as the flame extinguishes.
The flame extinguish temperature plus the flame ignition temperature divided by two equals the average
temperature.
EXAMPLE: Flame extinguished 367ºF
Flame ignition 341ºF
708º / 2
Average temperature = 354ºF
If the average temperature is within 15ºF of the dial marking you probably leave the calibration where it is. If the
average temperature is outside of 15ºF of the dial setting you will want to calibrate the thermostat. To calibrate a
thermostat first remove the knob by pulling it straight off the shaft. Next take a small flat head screw drive and
turn the screw inside the shaft, clockwise to decrease, counterclockwise to increase. ¼ turn clockwise will
decrease the temperature approximately 24ºF. ¼ turn counterclockwise will increase the temperature
approximately 24ºF. Adjust and re-measure the average temperature until you get the temperature to your
desired point.
NOTE: avoid making more than ½ turn at a time. Calibration is not linear and you can get the thermostat
significantly out of calibration to a point where it is difficult to reset.
If after adjusting the thermostat three times and getting no change in calibration the thermostat is bad. Then
replace the thermostat.
