Operating Instructions
Operating the Charbroiler
Before operating your new charbroiler, thoroughly wash the exterior with a mild detergent or soap solution. Do
not use abrasive cleaners, since this might damage the cabinet nish. If the stainless steel surface becomes
discolored, scrub by rubbing only in the direction of the nished grain.
Turn the burners on about 15-20 minutes before cooking for preheating. Set the knobs to the desired ame
height or temperature. Each valve will control the gas ow to the burner to bring that area of the unit 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.
NOTE: When the charbroiler is rst heated, it will smoke until oil used in manufacturing, dust from storage and
shipping are burned off. An hour maxium is usually sufcient.
Radiant Charbroiler
1. Place the angled radiants as shown in Fig. 8-1.
2. Make sure the radiants are set into the slots on the front and rear supports. Radiants should be
centered over the straight section of the burners.
COOKING GRATES
Place the top cooking grates with the grid bars angled
toward the front as shown in Fig. 8-2. Or place the grid
bars at, not angled for cooking.
NOTE: When cooking grates are angled toward the front,
the grooves on top will guide the excess fat drippings into
the grease trough.
The cooking grates are heavy-duty cast iron which will
oxidize if immersed in water. Lightly oil grates if not used
regularly.
