Maintenance Tips
  • Daily scrape while warm: Clean the 60" x 24" polished steel plate while it’s warm to remove food residue and prevent carbon buildup for consistent heat performance.
  • Light oil re-seasoning: After cleaning, apply a thin layer of cooking oil to protect the 1" steel plate and maintain a natural non-stick surface.
  • Grease system care: Empty the 4" grease gutter and 1-gallon grease can daily to avoid overflow, odors, and fire hazards.
  • Burner maintenance: Keep all five 30,000 BTU burners and aeration baffles clean for even heat distribution across the full surface.
  • Pilot & ignition check: Ensure continuous pilots light quickly and stay stable for reliable startup during peak service.
  • Gas safety inspection: Regularly check valves, manifolds, and connections for leaks using approved leak-detection solution.
  • Avoid water flooding: Use minimal water during cleaning to prevent thermal shock and damage to the heavy steel plate.
  • Ventilation upkeep: Keep hood filters clean to manage grease-heavy cooking vapors and reduce heat stress on equipment.
  • Leveling check: Ensure unit is properly leveled so grease drains correctly and heat distribution stays consistent.
  • Preventive servicing: Schedule routine technician inspections for burners, valves, and controls to maintain long-term reliability.
