BACK RISERS - The standard unit is equipped with a 6" stainless steel stub riser. Also available are single and  
double-deck risers with or without shelves and reenforced high shelves capable of mounting a Cheesemelter or  
Salamander broiler. Another option is 48", 60" and 72" back risers in the same configurations capable of spanning  
more than one unit. These wider back risers are special order only. All back risers are attached to the units via  
a 2" x 4" female receiver on the top rear of the chassis and all high shelves/stub risers are interchangeable.  
EXTERIOR FINISHES - The standard finish is black powder coat paint. All chassiss are powder coated prior to  
assembly. The most common exterior finish is stainless steel on the front. Stainless steel sides are available as  
an option. Cast-iron open burners and grates are painted with a light coat of water based enamel. The water-based  
enamel is intended to protect the raw cast iron during transit and storage only. Cast iron hot tops and steel griddle  
plates are coated with a USDA-approved oil that must be removed prior to operation.  
SPREADERS - These are non-functional items that are designed to offer a work surface between appliances and/  
or a place to locate a pressure regulator in a battery line up. The standard spreader comes with the continuous gas  
manifold, back riser and a top surface only. A front apron is available.  
GAS CONNECTIONS - The standard unit is supplied with a 1 1/4" front manifold with a male union fitting on the  
left side of the appliance, and the female union fitting is on the right side of the appliance. As an option, a rear gas  
tailpipe connection is available in either 1 1/4" or 3/4". Also this rear gas connection can be used to interconnect a  
cheese melter or salamander broiler that is mounted to the re-enforced high shelf. Manifold caps and cover plates  
are available for stand-alone units or battery end units.  
MISCELLANEOUS and SPECIALS - There are many other configurations available in the Signature line including  
models for back-to-back island installations. Special wide and/or long bull noses to span up to 108" in length and  
8 3/4" in width. Additionally, back risers can be special ordered to span up to 72" in width.

UNCRATING/SETUP  
All Vulcan-Hart appliances are inspected and tested for function before leaving the factory. The transportation  
company assumes responsibility for safe delivery of the shipment. Should an appliance arrive with apparent and/  
or hidden damage, see the freight damage section of this manual.  
Uncrate the appliance; carefully remove all tie-down straps and packing material.  
Locate and identify any and all loose pieces such as oven racks, rack guides, casters, legs, pressure  
regulator, back shelves and owner's manual.  
Locate the rating plate and check the specifications (gas type/electrical). If they do not match the utility  
connections, donotproceedwiththeinstallation. Contactthedealerand/orVulcan-HartCustomerService.  
Note the model and serial number of the appliances and retain for future reference.  
Place the appliance in the proximity of its final location, install legs/casters and then inspect gas  
connection points for obstructions and/or debris.  
Place the unit in its final location. Using a carpenters level, on the oven bottom or a solid portion of the  
chassis, check the appliance to ensure it is level from side to side and front to back. Using the bullet foot,  
level as necessary.  
For multiple unit installations (battery installations) see the battery installation section of this manual.  
Casters are non-leveling. If the floor is more than 1/8" out of level, it is recommended that casters not be  
used.  
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS  
The installation must allow for adequate clearances for service and operation with a minimum of 36" in front of the  
appliance.  
Models with 30,000 BTU burners must maintain 20" on the left and right sides as well as 2" in the rear to combustible  
materials. The older models with 20,000 BTU burners require 6" on the left and right sides as well as 2" in the rear  
to combustible materials. For non-combustible locations the clearances, are 0" left, right and rear.  
Snorkel convection oven models require additional clearances in the rear for the fan motor to be able to cool itself,  
with a minimum of 2". When snorkel ovens are mounted on curbs and/or without legs, there must be at least 6"  
of airspace behind the appliance.  
There must be an adequate supply of fresh air, based on BTU consumption and exhaust volume to ensure proper  
combustion as well as maximum performance.  
The appliance or line up must be installed so the flow of combusted air/flue gasses are not obstructed or disturbed  
in any way. Make up air, fans or drafts directed at the rear of the appliance will obstruct, inhibit or disturb the flow  
of flue gasses. This will affect the oven and/or griddle performance, cause poor combustion and can damage the  
operating components, which will void the appliance warranty. Do not place wall mounted objects over the  
appliance.  
Wall-mounted objects, appliances or shelves above the appliance will block the natural path of the flue gasses,  
which can slow or stop the appliance from fluing. This will cause problems and damage to operating components,  
which will void the appliance warranty.  
Make up air, fans or drafts directed at the top or front of the appliance will cause problems with open burners, such  
as delayed ignition and poor performance.

Installation Requirements (Cont.)  
All appliances must be vented to the outside. Depending on local codes, the specifics may vary. Check with local  
authorities. Fluing occurs because heat rises vertically, which has no force behind it. Any obstruction or  
disturbance will negatively affect the appliances ability to flue itself. Make up or fresh air should be present low  
and in the front of the appliance.  
Gas connector hoses shall be commercial grade and have the capability of supplying at least 10% more fuel than  
the maximum BTU consumption of the appliance or line up. Furthermore, gas connector hoses shall be no smaller  
than 3/4" inside diameter.  
When units are mounted on casters, the gas connector hose must comply with the current standard for movable  
gas appliances. Furthermore, the installation must provide for a restraining cable/chain device to limit the  
movement of the appliance or line up.  
GAS CONNECTIONS  
CAUTION:ON ALL GAS SUPPLY CONNECTIONS ANY PIPE JOINT COMPOUND USED MUST BE RESISTANT  
TO THE PROPERTIES OF PROPANE (LP) GAS.  
Before making any gas connections, be sure to check for obstructions or debris in the manifold pipe and union  
fitting. Once the appliance has been connected and the air has been purged from the system all the fittings and  
connections must be tested for leaks using a soap solution, or an appropriate gas leak-sensing instrument.  
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.  
If a gas leak is detected and cannot be stopped, shut off gas supply to the appliance or line up and contact your  
local gas provider or an Authorized Servicer.  
GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS  
Natural gas pressure should be 5" Water Column (W.C.) plus or minus 1/2" W.C.  
Propane (LP) gas pressure should be 10" W.C. plus or minus 1/2" W.C.  
On units that have infra-red burners such as Salamanders and Cheesemelters, the gas pressure variables are  
slightly different, plus 1/2" W.C. minus .2" W.C. Example: on natural gas, 4.8" to 5.5" W.C., on propane (LP) 9.8"  
to 10.5" W.C.  
All gas appliances must have a gas pressure regulator installed. In order for the pressure regulator to perform  
properly, the supply pressure must be greater than the operating pressure. For example, most cities supply 7" to  
9" W.C. of natural gas pressure to a building.  
Propane (LP) systems should supply 11" to 12" W.C. The appropriate pressure regulator will provide the correct  
pressure to the unit or line up.  
Sometimes even though the gas pressure is correct, the appliance may not be able to function properly because  
the gas supply piping may be too small and is not able to supply the volume of gas required. It is recommended  
that the piping be able to supply a minimum of 10% more fuel than the maximum BTU consumption of the appliance  
or line up.  
Because of the size of the Signature manifold (11 /4") when a 11/4" pressure regulator is used, up to three appliances  
may be connected to one pressure regulator. For example, a battery line up of six units must be connected to two  
gas pressure regulators. A single appliance can be connected to a 3/4" gas pressure regulator.

GAS PRESSURE CHECK PROCEDURES  
Steps  
1. Connect the manometer to the main gas manifold pipe of the appliance, or in a battery the center unit of  
the line up. If the pressure reading is taken at the oven burner or anywhere other than the main gas manifold  
pipe, the pressure drop can be 1" W.C. or greater and the test is invalid.  
2. Fire up one burner and take a reading.  
3. Fire up all the burners on the appliance and take a reading.  
4. Fire up all the gas appliances on that supply line and take a reading.  
5. At no time should the pressure drop more than 1/2" W.C.  
If the pressure is set at the recommended setting and the pressure drop is slightly under, or 1/2" W.C., the regulator  
can be adjusted up to the maximum, for example, a 5.5" W.C. for natural and 10.5" W.C. for propane (LP). However,  
if the pressure drop is greater than 1/2" W.C., it is likely a lack of volume due to too small of a supply line. Check  
with the gas provider for the proper size gas line.

VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS  
Depending on local codes, ventilation requirements may vary. A basic formula is as follows: 100 to 150 CFM (cubic  
feet per minute) per square foot of floor space that the appliance or line up occupies. For example, one standard  
six burner unit, which measures 36" wide by 38" deep, equals approximately 9 square feet of floor space, therefore  
900 to 1,350 CFM of exhaust is required.  
Units with charbroilers may require more CFM exhaust; check with local authorities.  
The hood should extend a minimum of 6" over all exposed sides of an appliance or line up. Seldom can the units  
be without rear clearance, so figure 4" in the rear.  
For every cubic foot of gas that is burned, 11 cubic feet of by-products are produced. These by-products must be  
vented to the outside.  
Ventilation systems need to be properly balanced to ensure that all the by-products are exhausted. There must  
be an adequate supply of fresh air for proper combustion and still a very slight negative pressure in the kitchen.  
Sometimes a hood system will be operating perfectly as per its manufacturers specifications, however there is  
still a problem with the gas-cooking appliance. The hood system may not be compatible with the gas appliance  
under it. In these instances, the service contractor for the hood system and the appliance Servicer will have to  
work together to attempt to correct the problem. If it is determined that the hood system is not compatible with  
the appliances under it, it is imperative that this information be communicated to the end user, the dealer and all  
parties involved, especially the Vulcan-Hart Company.  
If the fresh air system (make up air) is such that ovens and griddles are experiencing fluing problems, there will  
be component failures due to excessive heat. If the open burners are fluttering or blowing around due to make up  
air being directed at the top or front of the unit delayed, no ignition will occur, and the appliances performance will  
be severely affected. If it is determined that any of these conditions exist, the appliance warranty will be voided.  
Some cities allow the use of a direct vent system in lieu of a motor-driven exhaust system to vent a bake oven.  
Check with local authorities.  
To increase appliance performance and minimize energy consumption of the ventilation system:  
Add side panels on canopy hoods.  
Avoid make up air diffusers close to hood or re direct air away from top and/or rear of appliance.  
Add multi-or variable-speed exhaust and make up air fan controls.

PILOT ADJUSTMENTS  
After all connections/fittings have been checked for gas leaks and no leaks are found, the pilots can be lit. Locate  
each pilot and the corresponding pilot adjustment valve. Light the pilots and adjust them up or down as necessary.  
The flame should be only high enough to ignite the corresponding burner within 3 or 4 seconds maximum.  
Mushroom head-type pilots are used on open burners, griddles and hot tops. The flame should be only about the  
size of a dime. This type of pilot will burn yellow; that is the reason they should be as small as possible and still  
be able to ignite the burner, within 3 or 4 seconds, maximum (Diagram #2).  
Orifice pilots with thermocouples or flame switches are used on ovens. The flame should be large enough to  
completely engulf the tip of the thermocouple/sensor and make the tip of the thermocouple/sensor glow red-hot.  
Orifice pilot flames should be sharp, well-defined, two-tone blue when burning natural gas. However, when burning  
propane (LP) there may be a tiny yellow tip to the flame. This yellow tip should be no more than 10% of the total  
flame size (Diagram #1).  
All gas burners should ignite within 3 to 4 seconds, maximum. All burners are tested at the factory prior to shipment.  
However, fine tuning adjustments may be necessary to accomplish 3 to 4-second ignition at the installation site.  
Most gas burners have an air shutter. There are two types of air shutters, the cap or disk type (Diagram #3) and  
the sleeve type (Diagram #4). The cap or disk type is used on burners with cast iron venturis. The sleeve type is  
used on tubular steel burners and/or burners with tubular steel venturis. All burners are tested and the air shutters  
are set at the factory prior to shipment. However the factory cannnot make the fine tuning adjustments that may  
be necessary at the actual installation.

BURNER ADJUSTMENTS  
When using natural gas, the air shutter will be approximately 50% open. On propane (LP) the air shutter will be  
approximately 90% open.  
If the flame is soft, lazy or yellow, there is not enough primary air and the air shutter needs to be opened up. In  
the event this does not solve the situation, check the burner for obstructions and clear as necessary. If the flame  
is lifting off the burner, there is too much primary air and the air shutter needs to be closed down (Diagram #5).  
If grates, hot tops or oven bottoms have been removed, be sure to recheck flame adjustments with these items  
in place as the flame characteristics may change and additional adjustments may be necessary. Always recheck  
burner flames after the grates, hot tops and oven bottoms are in their proper place.

BATTERY INSTALLATION  
1. Remove grates, hot tops, knobs, front manifold cover and bull nose (Diagram #6).  
2. Slide open burners and/or hot tops off the orifice/valve, but do not remove them from burner box. It is not  
necessary to remove griddle burners unless the griddle plate is already off the unit. Be careful that the  
weight of the griddle burner or burners does not cause the manifold pipe to rotate when the manifold  
mounting clamps are loosened.  
3. Loosen manifold mounting clamps enough that the manifold pipe is free to move (Diagram #7).  
4. Slide units together and level with bullet feet, as necessary, so that the manifold pipes mate up. If the pipes  
do not mate up, the units are not level. Do not use the manifold mounting clamps to compensate for  
anything other than very minor adjustments (1/8" or less). Units on casters will not level up if floor is not  
level. Casters must be installed wrench tight.  
3. Engage the union nut with the opposing male union fitting and hand-tighten as much as possible until units  
are mated up (Diagram #7).  
4. Locate mounting holes in the riser and top frame, then bolt the units together using the appropriate length  
1
/
4" bolts (Diagram #8 on page14).  
5. When all the units in the battery are connected, use a backup wrench on the manifold pipe to begin  
tightening the unions.  
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW THE MAIN MANIFOLD PIPE TO ROTATE, AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE  
PILOT LINES AND/OR VALVES AND MAY CAUSE GAS LEAKS.  
6. Once all the units are bolted together and the unions are tight make sure all the valves are in the original  
level position. Retighten the manifold pipe mounting clamps.  
7. Reinstall and bolt bull noses together (Diagram #6).  
8. Reinstall any burners that were removed. Reattach the pilots that were removed. Check that burners and/  
or pilot lines and fittings are in their original position and have not been damaged.  
9. Install pressure regulators as needed. No more than three units are to be connected to any one,11/4" gas  
pressure regulator.  
10. Connect battery to gas supply. Purge the air from the system. Check for leaks using a soap solution.  
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.  
11. Check and adjust gas pressure if necessary (see gas pressure adjustment and gas pressure check  
sections of this manual).  
12. Thoroughly check all units for packing material, protective coatings and manuals before lighting any pilots.  
13. Begin lighting and adjusting pilot flames (see pilot adjustment section of this manual).  
14. Check and adjust all burners as necessary (see burner adjustment section of this manual). All burners  
should light within 3 or 4 seconds, maximum. It may be necessary to remove grates, hot tops, oven  
bottoms and possibly the griddle plate to make the necessary adjustments.  
15. At this point if no problems are noted the battery is ready to be started up. If any problems are noted they  
must be corrected before the battery can be put into operation. AN AUTHORIZED SERVICER MUST

THERMOSTATS  
The standard oven uses an FDTO-type, modulating thermostat. When first turned on, the flame comes on full  
speed, approximately 11/4" to 1 1/2" tall. As the temperature approaches the set point, the flame slowly reduces  
in size. When the temperature is achieved, the flame should be in bypass, approximately 1/8" tall. The bypass flame  
will keep the oven temperature constant unless the door is opened and heat is lost.  
When the oven needs to recover heat loss, the thermostat will allow the flame to slowly increase in size until the  
temperature is again at the set point. Usually the thermostat does not require calibration, however it may need to  
have the bypass flame set at the time of installation. The temperature accuracy of this thermostat is 25°F. For  
calibration and/or bypass adjustment, see thermostat calibration section of this manual.  
Snorkel and electric ignition ovens use a KX-type snap action thermostat. When first turned on, the flame comes  
on full speed. When it achieves the set temperature, it shuts off. When 10°F to 15°F is lost, the thermostat will  
come on full speed to recover the heat loss. Due to the fact the thermostat shuts completely off and the oven is  
constantly venting heat off through the flue, the thermostat will cycle on and off throughout the cooking process.  
The temperature accuracy of the KX thermostat is 15°F to 20°F. If calibration is required, see the calibration section  
of this manual.  
The thermostat used on griddles is a BJWA modulation type. When first turned on the flame comes on full speed,  
approximately 3/4" to 1" tall. As the temperature approaches the set point, the flame is slowly reducing in size. When  
the temperature is achieved, the flame should be in bypass. Bypass flame for griddles should only be big enough  
to keep the burner lit all the way around, with little blue dots of flame.  
This type of thermostat by design will allow the temperature to creep if the griddle is left idling, with no product  
on the griddle, for a minimum of 50°F an hour. Therefore it is imperative that the bypass flame be correct. If the  
bypass flame is not correct, the temperature will creep to 100°F to 200°F an hour. Temperature accuracy of the  
BJWA thermostat is 25°F. For calibration/bypass adjustments see the calibration section of this manual.  
NOTE: Calibrations and/or bypass adjustments require a good working knowledge of the components and system  
as well as specific test instruments and should only be performed by authorized service personnel. When checking  
calibrations on the BJWA griddle thermostat, it is necessary to begin the procedure when the griddle is cold.  
Attempting to calibrate the BJWA griddle thermostat from other than a cold start is extremely difficult, as well as  
time consuming, and can cause the temperature to be incorrect at a later time.

CALIBRATION OF THERMOSTATS  
Field recalibration is very seldom necessary on new appliances, however older thermostats may require  
calibration. Recaibration should only be considered when cooking results definitely indicate the thermostat is not  
maintaining the set temperature. Before attempting recalibration, the temperature should should be checked with  
temperature test instrument or a reliable thermometer.  
Standard Oven with FDTO Thermostat  
1. Place the test instrument sensor or thermometer in the center of the oven cavity and close the door.  
2. Turn oven on, set the thermostat dial to 300 degrees and allow the oven to cycle several times (at least  
20 minutes).  
3. Turn the thermostat dial back to the lowest temperature setting. Check the bypass flame; it should be  
1
/
8" tall. Adjust bypass as necessary (Diagram #9).  
4. Turn thermostat dial back to 325°F and allow 5 minutes for temperature to stabilize. If temperature is more  
than 20°F different from the dial setting, calibrate as follows.  
A. Remove dial and loosen the calibration plate screws until the calibration plate moves freely. Gently  
attach dial and turn until the dial setting matches the actual oven temperature (Diagram #9).  
B. Hold calibration plate. Gently remove dial and tighten calibration plate mounting screws. Apply  
adhesive material to calibration screws  
C. Replace dial and increase temperature 50°F. Allow 10 minutes and recheck the temperature.  
D. If temperature is still more than 20°F different from the dial setting, the thermostat may need to be  
replaced.

15 minutes). If the temperature is more than 15°F different from the dial setting, calibrate as follows.  
A. Pull the dial straight off. Turn the calibration screw (Diagram #10) clockwise to decrease temperature  
or counterclockwise to increase temperature (1/4 turn equals approximately 35°F).  
B. Replace dial and increase temperature 50°F. Allow oven to cycle at least three times and recheck the  
temperature.  
C. If the temperature is more than 15°F different from the dial setting, the thermostat may need to be  
replaced.

Griddles with BJWA Thermostat  
Before attempting recalibration on the BJWA thermostat, a temperatures check must be done from a cold start,  
before the griddle has been idling and the temperature has had a chance to creep up. All temperature readings and/  
or calibrations must be performed from a cold start. Thermostats can be rendered inoperative by improper  
calibration and/or adjustments.  
Clean the griddle plate and make sure there is no carbon buildup on the cooking surface. Carbon buildup  
will cause a false temperature reading.  
Remove the temperature dials and manifold cover. Locate sensor probes. Temperature readings can only  
be taken directly over the sensor probes. The sensor probes will be located as follows. Approximately 6"  
from the left side splash, then 12" spacing and the last sensor probe will be approximately 6" from the right  
side splash (Diagram #11).  
Once the left to-right locations is identified, measure 12" from the front of the cooking surface. That is  
where the temperature readings will be taken.  
Pull off all the thermostat dials. Using a screwdriver from the back of the dial, push out the center chrome  
cap of the dial. Replace dial on the thermostat.  
Turn the dial to 300°F. The flame should be approximately 3/4" to 1" tall. Allow about 15 minutes for plate  
to heat up.  
Turn the dial to the lowest temperature setting (150°F). Check the bypass flame; it should be only big  
enough to keep the burner lit all the way around (little blue dots of flame). Adjust as necessary (Diagram  
# 12).  
Take note of the size of the bypass flame, as it will be necessary to recognize when the thermostat is in  
bypass throughout the calibration process.  
Turn the dial up enough for the flame to come on at least 1/4" tall. When the flame is in bypass, again take  
a temperature reading in the area previously identified as the probe location. If the temperature is more  
than 25°F different from the dial setting, calibrate as follows.  
With the dial in place, use a small screwdriver through the opening in the front of the dial locate and depress  
calibration screw, Do not turn the calibration screw. Rotate the dial to match the actual temperature on the  
griddle plate. Release the calibration screw.  
Turn the dial to increase the temperature 50°F. Watch flame and as soon as the flame is again in full  
bypass, take a temperature reading. If the temperature is more than 25°F different than the dial setting,  
the thermostat may need to be replaced.  
Once the thermostat is determined in calibration, that thermostat should be turned off so as not to cause  
false readings on the other zones.  
Repeat the process for each thermostat zone.  
Once all the thermostats are calibrated, reassemble the dials and reinstall the manifold cover and the  
thermostat dials.  
NOTE: Although the BJWA thermostat is a very simple and basic thermostat, it is somewhat difficult to calibrate  
due to the fact that once the bypass is set, it must be recognized as in full bypass at the time the temperature  
reading is taken. Additionally, if the temperature reading is not taken as soon as the thermostat is in full bypass,  
the temperature will begin creeping up and a true temperature reading will not be possible.  
In the event a thermostat has to be replaced, use extreme care when handling and installing the sensor probe. Do  
not kink or severely bend the probe. Do not allow direct flame to come in contact with the probe or the capillary  
line. Any excess capillary line should be gently coiled up in an area that is away from direct flame and/or working  
or cleaning areas. Warranty does not cover thermostats that have been rendered inoperative by improper  
adjustments and/or calibrations or by work being performed by unqualified personnel.

OVEN ELECTRIC IGNITION SYSTEMS  
Spark System  
The spark system has had two different spark modules used. Until late 1993 a white Robert shaw SM2 module was  
used. This spark module was not polarity sensitive. Early 1994 the units have a blue technical components 0+1  
spark module. The technical components spark module is polarity sensitive. When changing from Robert shaw to  
technical components, the polarity must be checked with a meter prior to connecting the module.  
NOTE: Do not rely on the original wire hookups as the polarity may not be correct and the technical components  
module will not stop sparking (See wiring diagram #13).  
Both of these spark modules sense the presence of pilot flame and stop sparking automatically by sensing the  
change in resistance when the spark has to travel through the pilot flame. Therefore it is imperative that the high  
voltage lead wire not have any nicks, cuts or splices. Also, where the high voltage lead wire connects to the spark  
module, the connector must be clean and tight. A poor ground will cause either module to not stop sparking.

BRASS VALVES  
To service the new style valve, the two screws must be removed. Carefully remove the stem and spring. Using  
long nose pliers, pull the plug out. Clean the plug and core with a soft cloth. Inspect the plug and core. Look for  
scoring. If either piece is scored, the valve must be replaced. If there is no scoring, apply a thin coat of graphite-  
based gas valve grease to the plug.  
Reinstall the plug into the core and rotate the plug in the core to distribute grease in the core. Remove plug; reapply  
another thin coat of grease to the plug. Reinstall plug into core (be sure that plug is in the off position when the  
stem is installed, with the flat side on the bottom). Reinstall the spring, washer and stem. Reinstall the collar with  
the screws (Diagram #16).  
NOTE: The new-style valve has a spring that can be easily lost. It is a spring that is approximately half the size  
of a ballpoint pen spring. In addition to the spring there is a washer, a metal collar and two small screws. All pieces  
must be reassembled onto the valve.

CLEANING PROCEDURES  
Housekeeping/cleaning is a vital part of appliance maintenance. Individual procedures will vary from operation to  
operation. When properly cleaned and well-maintained, Vulcan-Hart appliances will provide many years of reliable  
performance. TheinformationprovidedisintendedtoprovidegeneralinformationaboutthematerialswhichVulcan-  
Hart uses in its equipment.  
PAINTED SURFACES - Use a soft cloth with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe off spills as they may occur  
with a soft cloth and warm water. Do not use abrasives or harsh chemicals on painted surfaces.  
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES - Stainless steel is resistant to most cleaners, so detergent or degreasers can  
be used. Be sure to read the instructions on the product before using it on your appliance. A petroleum-based  
stainless cleaner/polish may be used on exterior areas that are not near a cooking surface. Abrasive cleansers  
and/or cleaning pads will scratch the surface..  
CAST IRON GRATES - The grates can be cleaned by using a wire brush or a steel wool pad. Also, the grates can  
be cleaned in a dishwasher, however rust may occur. To help retard rust after water is used, a light coat of cooking  
oil can be applied to the grate. If oil is applied, the grates will smoke when the burners are used; therefore the oil  
must be burned offbefore using the burner to cook product.  
CAST IRON HOT TOPS - The top surface of the cast iron hot top can be cleaned by using a steel wool pad or an  
abrasive scrubber. Occasionally the bottom side of the hot top should be inspected for carbon and/or soot and  
cleaned as necessary with a wire brush.  
STANDARD OVEN INTERIOR - The standard oven has a porcelain coating on the bottom (floor) of the cavity as  
well as the inner liner of the door. These surfaces can be cleaned with a commercial degreaser or oven cleaner.  
The side walls, ceiling and back wall of the oven cavity is made of aluminized steel, which can be cleaned with  
a noncaustic cleaner. The use of caustic cleaner will damage the aluminized steel; a detergent-based cleaner is  
recommended.  
SNORKEL CONVECTION OVEN - The entire oven cavity is coated with porcelain and can be cleaned with a  
commercial degreaser or oven cleaner. The fan cover and blower wheel is made of aluminized steel. Caustic  
cleaners will damage the aluminized material and should not be used on these parts. Use of water on or near the  
fan should be minimized.  
OVEN RACKS and GUIDES - The racks are chrome plated and can be cleaned in a dishwasher. A steel wool soap  
pad can be used in conjunction with a commercial de-greaser or oven cleaner.  
GRIDDLE PLATES - Allow the plate to cool to approximately 250°F. Apply a small amount of water on the griddle  
plate (amount that can be controlled with a spatula). At 250°F the water will boil and loosen the cooking debris,  
use the spatula to scrape off the stubborn debris. Use a clean towel to wipe up the debris. Use abrasive (griddle  
stone, griddle screen or a product called Scotch Brick) with oil or water. Use the abrasive to remove the carbon  
buildup. Wipe the plate with a cloth. Apply a small amount of cooking oil. Spread the oil evenly over the surface.

Cleaning Tips  
The main purpose in cleaning a griddle plate is to remove the cooking debris and prevent carbon buildup. Product  
will stick to a new griddle plate due to the fact that steel is porous. After a griddle has been used, the pores of the  
steel will fill with carbon and the plate will be almost nonstick due to the fact that carbon has filled the pores of  
the steel plate. However, excessive carbon buildup will decrease the performance of the griddle and there will be  
taste transfer to the food product. Occasionally (once or twice a year) it is recommended that a commercial grill  
cleaner be used.  
Whenever a cleaning product is used, the product instructions must be read, understood and followed. Be  
extremely careful when using any and all caustic cleaners, as they do pose a safety hazard to the user as well  
as a potential hazard to any food product that may come in contact with the product itself or the residue. Make  
sure to thoroughly wash the unit with fresh, clean water before cooking again.  
Be advised that after a cleaner is used on the plate, product will likely stick until the pours are again filled with  
carbon. After a grill cleaner has been used, product sticking can be reduced by heating the griddle plate to  
approximately 300°F, rubbing beef fat on the plate and allowing the grease from the fat to lightly burn into the plate.  
Constant use of griddle cleaners will cause a grease-bubbling effect around the perimeter of the griddle plate. This  
occurs because the splashes are welded to the bottom surface of the griddle plate and there is a slight gap on the  
cooking surface in which grease will accumulate. Normally this grease will solidify and become carbon; and the  
carbon will fill the gap. The cleaner will break down the carbon barrier that has been formed, and new grease and/  
or water residue will bubble up. Therefore this situation can be avoided by allowing the grease to solidify and create  
a carbon barrier.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE  
In order to provide maximum performance and proper operation, and to ensure the safety of the operator, all  
equipment must be serviced at least once a year by an authorized servicer. If for any reason an appliance has  
not been in use or has been in storage for any time, it is imperative that the unit be inspected by an Authorized  
Servicer prior to reinstallation and/or operation.  
Recommended Service Frequency  
10 to 12 hours of operation per day, 7 days a week, every 30 to 60 days.  
8 to 12 hours of operation per day, 5 days a week, every 90 days.  
4 to 6 hours of operation per day, 5 days a week, every 120 days.  
Limited daily usage, every 180 days.  
Inspection Items  
Check for the slightest odor of gas. If detected, locate and correct as necessary.  
Check for valves that are hard to turn or that are seized up.  
Verify that all burners light in 2 or 3 seconds.  
Check that all burner ports are clean.  
Check that burners burn sharp, clean and blue, not yellow. Propane (LP) may have a small yellow tip.  
All pilots are lit and set to the proper height (see pilot adjustment section).  
Look for grease, debris and/or carbon buildup.  
Check all moving parts for ease of movement and/or wear.  
Verify that thermostats are functioning and temperatures are correct.  
Inspect and verify that all panels, covers, racks and rack guides are intact and properly installed and are  
not binding or falling out.  
If any of these items are found to be incorrect, malfunctioning or in need of attention, immediately contact an  
Authorized Servicer to repair or correct the problem.
