Why Operators Love the Ultimate Series

  • All-purpose versatility—sauté, boil, grill, roast and bake without adding extra equipment.
  • Porcelain-coated, coved-corner ovens for superior airflow and quick wipe-down cleanup.
  • High-efficiency ½ hp convection motors with on/off switches let you use ovens as standard or forced-air.
  • Field-configurable with optional salamander or cheesemelter mounts, flue riser heights and caster sets (sold separately).
Important care tips:
• Never allow cookware to extend over the front rail—excess heat can damage components.
• Do not place sheet pans over charbroiler grates while burners are on; reflected heat can cause irreparable damage.
