This is a 600 mm Buffalo 600 Series freestanding electric griddle. Its griddle appliance is the CU475, a dual-zone model designed for use with the matching stainless steel cupboard base.

This commercial cooking equipment provides a flexible surface for breakfast, lunch and dinner service. Its independently controlled zones make it practical for foods such as eggs and bacon, while its format suits busy catering operations comparing adaptable freestanding griddles for all-day use.

The griddle combines 4.5 kW heating elements with a durable 10 mm thick mild steel plate. Elements positioned beneath the plate distribute heat rapidly across each zone, while the plate retains heat well. Its smooth surface maximises contact with food to support consistent results and shorter cooking times.

Each heat zone has an independent, user-friendly dial control covering 50°C to 300°C. Operators can cook at different temperatures on each side, keep food warm on one zone or switch one side off completely during quieter periods to avoid heating more of the plate than required.

This 4500 W (4.5 kW) electric griddle requires a 400V, 3-phase supply. It is supplied without a plug and must be hardwired to a suitable circuit by a qualified electrician. The circuit should have sufficient capacity and appropriate residual-current protection, with an accessible isolation point.

The complete freestanding griddle measures 850 mm high, 600 mm wide and 600 mm deep. Its 600 mm width and depth help it align with other equipment in the Buffalo 600 Series, while the freestanding format brings the cooking surface to a practical working height.

The CU475 griddle has a cooking surface measuring 596 mm by 410 mm. This broad smooth plate is divided into two independently controlled heat zones, allowing an operator to run different temperatures or use only one side when demand is lower.

The griddle is mounted on a strong stainless steel cupboard base that raises it to an ergonomic working height and provides storage for cookware and utensils. Strong, height-adjustable 150 mm feet help the installed unit stand securely and level on the kitchen floor.

Its stainless steel construction, fully welded plate and high rear and side splash guards reduce dirt traps and help contain cooking mess. After use, switch off and disconnect the griddle, let it cool, clean the exterior with warm soapy water and a damp cloth, then dry it thoroughly.

The griddle has a 1Ltr fat-collection drawer for liquids and fats draining from the cooking surface. Remove and empty it at least daily, then wash it with warm soapy water. Do not let it overfill or remove it during or immediately after cooking, as its contents will be hot.

Clean the griddle after each day of operation, or more frequently during intensive use. Avoid abrasive cleaning agents and steel wool. If burned-on fat or food requires the surface to be scoured, re-season the cooking plate afterwards to restore its protective cooking finish.

Yes. Clean and dry the cooking surface, brush it with cooking oil and heat it to 110°C. Once the heating indicator switches off, turn off the appliance, allow it to cool and wipe away excess oil. Lightly oiling the surface before subsequent cooking is also recommended.

A thermal cut-out automatically disconnects power if the temperature exceeds a safe level. After the appliance has cooled sufficiently and has no obvious damage, the front-mounted reset can be operated. Persistent overheating, smoke or repeated cut-outs should be investigated by a qualified technician.

Yes. This Buffalo griddle belongs to the modular 600 Series and is designed to sit neatly with other appliances from the same range. Its 600 mm depth, silver stainless steel finish and freestanding base help create a consistent commercial kitchen line while retaining useful storage below.

The griddle has a net weight of 35.1kg. Account for this weight when planning delivery, handling and the final installation position, and ensure it is placed securely and level before operation.
