Maintenance Tips

-
Empty full‑width drip pan: Remove and clean the drip pan beneath the burners each shift to avoid grease buildup and improve hygiene.
-
Scrape & season the 12" griddle: After use, scrape the 1" thick griddle plate clean; occasionally season with a light oil film to reduce rust and maintain optimal heat distribution.
-
Clean oven interior & racks: Wipe the porcelain‑lined convection oven interior and chrome racks after cooling to remove residue and maintain even heat and airflow.
-
Wipe stainless surfaces: Use a soft cloth with mild detergent or stainless cleaner on the front, sides, and landing ledge to protect the finish and resist corrosion.
-
Inspect burner ports: Check that burner ports are free of food particles and grease; clear blockages gently to ensure efficient combustion.
-
Check gas connections & ventilation: Periodically verify gas line fittings are secure and unobstructed, and ensure proper ventilation for safe commercial operation.
-
Service thermostat & oven fan: Confirm the oven thermostat and convection fan operate correctly to maintain consistent temperatures and reliable performance.
