Operating instructions

CLEANING / MAINTENANCE
INITIAL CLEANING:
Prior to operating your new broiler, thoroughly wash 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.
When the broiler is first heated, it will smoke until oil used in manufacturing, preservation and dust from
storage and shipping are burned off. An hour at "max." on all burners is usually sufficient.
CLEANING:
DAILY
Remove the grease pan, empty and wash it.
Grate "burn off'. The grease buildup on the grates should be cleaned daily (more often as needed).
A. Caution: When handling grates or radiants, always use insulated gloves to prevent burns.
B. Warning: Do not cover the top of the grid grates during a burn off operation. Restricting the airflow by
covering the grid grates may cause them to warp. It will also cause damage to the valves, the knobs, the
rock grates and the front panel decal.
C. Place grates on broiler, with grid bars horizontal, facing down.
D. Turn control knobs to "HI" for approximately 45 minutes.
E. Turn off the broiler and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
F. Clean top and bottom surfaces of grate with a wire brush to remove animal fats and carbonized grease.
G. Clean channels on grates with a scraper.
H. Remove grates from broiler. Clean top surface of radiants with the wire brush. They may be cleaned in
place.
WEEKLY
Thoroughly clean the exposed surfaces of broiler, sides, front and top grease trough, with a damp cloth, then
polish with a soft, dry cloth. A detergent may be used for cleaning. To remove discoloration, use a non-
abrasive cleaner.
After performing daily cleaning procedures, proceed with the following:
A. Remove the radiants or rock grates. Clean reflecting drip shield of any dust or debris with a brush.
Note: Top cooking grates and rock grates are heavy. For applications where you use abundant sauces,
radiants and rock grates should be cleaned more often.
B. Burner air shutter openings must be kept clean.
C. Burner ports must be kept clean. To clean burners, boil them in a strong solution of lye water for fifteen
to twenty minutes. Then, either brush with a wire brush or clean gas ports with a sharp-pointed metal
instrument to insure open ports.
