GENERAL OPERATIONAL NOTES
Carefully read the description of the waffle baker operation on the
specification sheet.
DO NOT attempt to perform any maintenance or service unless the
waffle baker is disconnected from electrical power.
DO unplug the waffle baker before cleaning, servicing or performing
any maintenance.
DO NOT use sharp objects or metal implements to clean the grids.
DO use a plastic spatula or plastic scouring pad to remove burned-on
food product.
OPERATION
Turn power switch to the ON position.
With the upper grid closed, allow to preheat for at least 20 minutes.
Using the handle, lift the upper grid. Pour desired amount of Belgian
Waffle Batter onto the lower grid.
Using the handle, carefully close the upper grid. Turn timer knob to
desired setting (approximately 2-1/2 to 3 minutes).
When the bell rings, raise the upper grid and remove the waffle.
Cooking Recommendations:
Keep the grids closed when not in use to maintain temperature.
Use a soft bristle brush to lightly brush and clean cooking debris from
the grids between waffles.
Reseason grids every 3 - 4 waffles to guard against waffles sticking.
This interval may be extended by adding oil or butter to the waffle
batter.
Always use fresh batter that contains sufficient shortening. Add
shortening as necessary, and do not store batter for extended periods.
Ensure a perfect, great-tasting waffle by cleaning and re-seasoning
frequently. After every third waffle, and anytime the waffle baker has
been left idle for over one-half hour, lightly spray grids with commer-
cial waffle baker spray.
Never apply beeswax, paraffin or other such materials to the grids.
Use only a quality commercial waffle baker spray.
Never use sharp implements (i.e. knives, forks, metal tongs) to remove
waffles from the grid. Use a plastic spatula or plastic tongs.

MAINTENANCE
SET BAKING TEMPERATURE
CAUTION:
BURN HAZARD
Wells WB-1 and WB-2 waffle bakers are factory set for 390ºF ±5ºF
(200ºC ± 3ºC).
Exposed surfaces of the
waffle baker may be hot to the
touch and can cause burns.

2. Place the probe on the lower grid, then gently close the upper grid.
3. Press the power switch "ON". Wait 15 minutes for the waffle baker
to come up to heat, and for the temperature to stabilize.

ADJUST TEMPERATURE
1. Each waffle baker section has an individual temperature control.
Pry round hole plug from back of that side of the waffle baker.
DO NOT disconnect grounding tether from the hole plug.
2. Use a thin flat-blade screwdriver to turn the temperature
adjustment dial. Rotate clockwise to increase temperature;
counter-clockwise to decrease temperature.

3. Allow at least 3 minutes for temperature to stabilize before making
another adjustment.
Proper temperature for baking
waffles is 390ºF (200ºC).
Variations in altitude and/or
batter mix may require a
slightly different temperature
for best results.
4. When desired temperature is reached reinstall hole plug.
