Ventilation requirements can vary by country, state or providence, please consult with local authorities having jurisdiction for code requirements.

Installation Of Banking Plates

All units may be installed independently or banked with other ED or GD series equipment. To ensure a matching and permanent fit between units, two banking plates are available for each unit to be installed. One at the front and one at the rear of each two units being banked together. If optional 2 1/2” (64mm) legs are supplied with unit, discard leveling bolts and replace with legs.

1. Level each unit by adjustment of leveling bolts or legs.
   Use a spirit level and level unit four ways; across front and back and down left and right edges. Level all other units to the first unit.
   NOTE: Griddles may not rest evenly on the unit body if units are not leveled.

2. Remove acorn nuts at rear of unit.

3. Attach one banking plate in position at rear by placing 1/4” (6mm) diameter holes in the banking plate over the screw holes in the rear of units and fasten by replacing the acorn nuts removed in step 2.

4. Push units into position on counter top or back bar.

5. To secure the front, open the lower front panel, place banking plate over the two holes (one on each unit) and secure banking plate using sheet metal screws supplied.

Sanitary Countertop Seal

When appliance is installed without legs on a counter top, it must be sealed in accordance with N.S.F. standards as per the following instructions:

1. Appliance should be located on a level counter top surface. Complete the electrical connection.
2. Thoroughly clean the appliance bottom perimeter and the counter top area around the appliance perimeter.
3. Lay a generous bead of silicone under the entire perimeter of appliance bottom.
4. Secure unit to counter top through the holes located on the underside of the appliance using 10A sheet metal screws.
5. Smooth the silicone seal into the crevice with finger or tool to provide a cove seal.

Back 1 ½” (38mm)
Sides 1 ½” (38mm)

Supply Connection

For supply connection, use wire suitable for 75°C (167°F).

NOTE: – All 208V 1 phase 60 hZ ED-15THSE models are equipped with a 4-ft (1219mm) power cord and NEMA L6-30P plug (HUBBELL HBL2621 or equivalent).

Electrical Connection

A knockout is provided near the front left side of the unit located behind the control panel. To view knockout, loosen the two acorn nuts and hinge control panel downward. The terminal block is also located in this area.

The supply cable entrance is located on the right side when facing the rear of the unit. The cable is fed towards the front through a wire way.

Controls

Solid element hot plates are controlled by a six heat switch.
There are three boiling and three simmering positions. Turn the switch left or right from the off position to the desired number, one being the lowest setting and six being the highest.

This hot plate is protected against overheating when running empty or when using poor quality cookware, by a unique built-in bimetal protector switch.

This protector cuts down the power automatically under the above conditions, overriding the regular switch and it resets itself when conditions return to normal. This is an important safety feature.

Before Operating The Hot Plate

The top working surface has a heat resistant coating. Before using the sealed hot plates for the first time, they should be heated for a short period without a pan to harden and burn off the protective coating (3-5 minutes at the highest setting).

Sealed Hot Plates

All purpose sealed top elements provide an ease-clean top. They are intended for boiling, simmering, sauté and other top cooking.

Operating practices are very important for the efficient use of these elements:

1. Pot bottoms must be flat. This increases heat transfer to the pot. Do not use pots with either convex or concave in excess of 1mm (1/32”).
2. Use pots with the same diameter as the elements when possible. This will reduce heat up time.
3. Do not preheat the element. Elements are protected with a high limit which automatically reduces the element to a lower power. It will increase heat up time if this occurs.
4. Use a lid to cover the pots when boiling water.

Operating The Sealed Hot Plate

1. Before using the sealed hot plates for the first time they should be heated at setting 3 for 5 minutes, then turned off and allowed to cool. This will harden and burn off the protective coating.
2. Set the six heat switch dial to the desired position from 1 to 6.

Shutting down the sealed hot plate:

1. Turn the six heat switch to the off “O” position.

Fryers – Models ED-15F, ED-15SF, ED-30FT & ED-30SFT

Wall Clearance

Do not install appliance closer to a wall of combustible material than:
Back 1/2” (13mm)
Sides 1/2” (13mm)

Supply Connection

For supply connection, use wire suitable for 75°C (167°F).

Electrical Connection

A knockout is provided on the right side when facing the rear of the unit. Access to the terminal block is gained by removing the fry tank assembly, the rear shield and contactor box cover all located at the rear of the fryer.

Before Operating the Fryer

1. Before leaving the factory, the fryer was tested and the thermostat calibrated with oil in the fry tank; therefore, it is necessary to clean the fry tank and the elements before filling with frying compound. Use detergent or other cleaning agents, with hot water. Thoroughly rinse and dry fry tank.
2. To remove the fry tank, raise the element assembly by means of the handle until the support engages, holding the element assembly in the upright position. The element assembly is lowered by moving the lock stop to release unit from upright position.

Operating Suggestions

1. For liquid oil fill the frypot with oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot. This allows for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.

2. When using a solid frying compound, pack the tank with the compound then turn the fryer on and off every 10 seconds and repack until compound has melted. The fryer capacity is 17 Lbs. (7.7Kg) per tank. Scorched shortening cuts down on the useable life and could damage the fryer.
   CAUTION: Never set a complete block of solid shortening on top of heating elements.

3. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature. It may be necessary to add oil or shortening to bring the levels up to the proper mark, after reaching cooking temperature.

4. To prolong shortening life, avoid over heating and reduce the temperature during idle periods.

5. Ensure shorting is up to frying temperature before adding foods.

6. To increase the life of the shortening, it should be filtered with Garland fryer filter cones daily or more often, if necessary.

7. Baskets should never be more than half full.

8. Keep fat at operating level.

9. Fry pieces of similar size at the same time for best results.

10. Excessive moisture should be shaken from the product before frying.

11. Your shortening manufacturer can supply excellent frying and shortening guides.

Controls

1. All ED series fryers are equipped with a manually resettable high limit located at the rear of the element termination box. In the event that shortening temperatures exceed normal limits, the high limit will trip and can only be reset by pushing the red button when shortening has cooled.
2. All ED series are equipped with a precision electronic thermostat which has been factory calibrated and is designed to hold that calibration. There should never be the need to calibrate this thermostat in the field. Should there ever be an abnormal discrepancy in the set point of actual temperatures, or repeated tripping on the high limit occurs, the fryer should be serviced by an authorized Garland service agency.

Calibration Instructions

1. Field calibration is seldom necessary and should not be attempted unless experience with cooking results definitely proves that the control is not maintaining the temperature to which the dial is set.

2. Should calibration be required, use a test instrument (pyrometer) which special disc type thermocouple or reliable “surface” type thermometer.
   NOTE: A drop of oil on face of disc will provide better contact.

3. Turn ALL griddle temperature control dials to 350°F (177°C). In order to allow griddle temperature to stabilize, the controls must be allowed to cycle twice before taking a test reading.

4. Check temperature reading when control just cycles “OFF” (as indicated by the cycling amber pilot), by placing sensor firmly on griddle surface directly above sensing bulb of control. If the temperature does not read within 15°F (8°C) of the dial setting recalibrate as follows.

5. Carefully remove the thermostat dial making sure the setting is not disturbed.

6. Hold dial shaft steady and with a screwdriver, turn calibration screw located inside the dial shaft, clockwise to decrease and counterclockwise to increase the temperature.
   EXAMPLE: 1/4 turn = 35°F (19°C)

7. Replace thermostat dial and repeat steps 2 through 4 to verify correct adjustment has been made.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Exterior Finishes

Black Baked Enamel – Allow equipment to cool after use and wash all grease deposits from exterior with a hot mild detergent or soap solution. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasives.

Brushed Chrome Or Brushed Nickel – Wash when cool with a hot mild detergent or soap solution. Do not use abrasives.

Stainless Steel – Normal soil may be removed with a detergent or soap solution applied with a cloth.

To remove grease that has baked on, apply cleanser to a damp cloth or sponge and rub cleanser on the metal in the direction of the polishing lines of the metal. Never rub in circular motion. Soil and brunt deposits, which do not respond, can usually be removed by rubbing the surface with Scotch-Brite scouring pads or stainless scouring pads. DO NOT USE ORDINARY STEEL WOOL.

Heat tint can be removed by vigorous scouring in the direction of the polish lines using Scotch-Brite scouring pads or stainless scouring pad in combination with powdered cleanser.

Exterior surfaces should be cleaned daily before debris is allowed to heat and bake onto the surfaces.

Fryers

Cleaning The Fry Tank

1. If a liquid frying compound is used, allow the compound to cool, then raise the element assembly by means of the handle until the support engages and let the oil run off the elements into the fry tank. Wipe the surface oil off the elements to prevent dripping into the unit bottom when the tank is removed. Lift out the fry tank and empty the oil into a filter, after filtering it is then ready for re-use.
   Clean the tank in the pot wash area with a mild detergent and hot water. Rinse with a sponge dipped in a vinegar and water solution. (3/4 cup of vinegar to 1 quart of water) and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

2. If hydrogenated (solid) frying compound is used that has been allowed to cool and become solidified, first turn the thermostat dial to 121°C (250°F) until the compound is in a liquid state. Turn the thermostat dial/s to off “O”. Lift the element assembly by means of the handle until the support engages and let the oil run off the elements into the fry tank. Then proceed as described in step 1 to filter the compound and clean the fry tank.

3. Clean the top of the unit with a cloth soaked in a mild detergent and hot water, including the front of the element assembly housing. Rinse with a clean cloth dipped in clean hot water, Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

Griddle Top Plates

Seasoning

Before being used for the first time, all the griddle surfaces must be seasoned.

1. Wash griddle with a hot detergent or soap solution, rinse and dry thoroughly.
2. Set the griddle heat to lowest possible temperature for 30 minutes. Apply a thin film of cooking oil.
3. Allow oil to remain on griddle 5 minutes then wipe off.
4. Reset heat to medium temperature and apply a second film of oil.
5. Wipe off excess after 5 minutes. Reset heat to cooking temperature and apply a final film of oil wiping off surplus after 3 minutes.

The griddle is now seasoned and ready for use. The griddle may be re-seasoned at any time by cleaning thoroughly and following the seasoning procedure.

Cleaning

Griddle plates should be wiped daily while still warm. Remove carbonized grease or food with spatula. When necessary, clean griddle surfaces thoroughly using a fine griddle brick or a liquid griddle cleaner (available from your kitchen equipment dealer). Polish the griddle surface to a bright finish. For stubborn residue wash the griddle surfaces, rinse and dry thoroughly. Re- season griddle.

Broiler

Broiler Grates Surfaces

Broiler grates – or cooking racks are manufacture from a cast iron material. For maximum efficiency the racks should be scraped and wiped down daily. Grease and other food particles char and carbonize onto the rack surfaces building up becoming harder to clean.

Broiler Interior and Under Broiler Grate

Debris and grease that gathers inside the broiler and must be removed.

Daily

1. Lowering the front black enamel panel and remove the grease drawer to be empty. NEVER operate the broiler without the grease drawer. A magnetic door catch on the grease drawer holds the front panel closed, acting as a simple safety reminder. The front panel will not close when the grease drawer is not in place.
2. In order for an electric broiler to heat up the cooking racks/grates the electric elements must be attached to the grates. After the broiler has cooled down, clean inside the broiler under these grates using the broiler grate lifter supplied with the broiler to lift the racks. Once the grates are lifted a prop will kick out that is attached to the underside of the grates to hold assembly up. This will allow you access to clean the inside the broiler.

Periodic Cleaning

Over time debris carbonizes on the broiler grates requiring major cleaning with detergent soap or degrease agent. The broiler racks can be completely removed from the attached elements for cleaning.
WARNING: All power should be shut off prior to cleaning.

1. Lift the broiler grates as described in the daily cleaning section.
2. You will see the elements clamps that attaches the elements to grates. Remove the element clamps and clean the broiler racks.
3. Reverse the above procedure to reassemble the broiler.

After major cleaning it is recommended that you re-season the broiler grates. Broiler grates are manufactured from cast iron, which is a porous material. Major cleaning removes the oils in the metal that helps prevent food from sticking to the cook surface requiring re-seasoning.

To re-season the grates heat the broiler at a low temperature setting then rub cooking oil into the broiler rack. At this point you are ready to begin cooking again. If food is still sticking to the broiler grate rub more cooking oil onto the grates.
WARNING : NEVER use tin foil inside the broiler as it is a reflective material and it could cause the temperature to escalate beyond the normal range of the broiler design.
