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.

initial cuts into the fixture,

Before making the make sure that the model number you are referring to corresponds with the model number on the griddle nameplate.

All minimum dimensions shown must be met.

After making the proper layout, cut the hole in the top of the fixture.

Cut the large hole and drill the control panel holes in the front of the fixture from the layout.

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 cutout. 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 the fixture top.

NOTE:

(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 the frame assembly slots. Do not tighten the screw.

INSTALLATION

With all the large holes cut out, the smaller control panel holes drilled, and the stiffening angle welded into place, the fixture is now ready to receive the griddle.

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.

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 into place.

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 becomes compressed. See Fig. 4.

Slide the clamp inward so that it engages the upper part of the protruding angle from the griddle body 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.

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 when tightening bolts.

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.

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 voltage being applied.

Set the control panel in place and screw it to the apron, using the 1/2" long thread-forming screws.

Pull the tray slide against the back of the control panel and secure it with the appropriate screws.

Slide the grease drawer into place.

OWNER'S INFORMATION

CLEANING THE GRIDDLEAFTER INSTALLATION

Before using the griddle for the first time, be sure to remove the factory-applied rust preventive compound.

Add a mild detergent to hot water and wash the griddle well. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

CONTROLS

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 degree Fahrenheit, +/- 10 degrees.

SEASONING THE GRIDDLE SURFACE

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 for use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

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.

Load the griddle -After preheating, load the griddle and cook according to recipe.

Economy hint - Turn the griddle OFF (or to the lowest thermostat setting) during idle periods.

CAREAND CLEANING

At the end of each day's operation, turn all temperature controls to "OFF".

After each cooking load, 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 cloth and dry. Clean control panel with a damp cloth and dry.

Each week 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.
