how do prevent grease from running back and not into grease tray ?

..check on how level your griddle is..sounds like it's flowing away from the side grease spout is on.. if you get it exactly level, you can just scrape it towards the drain..have it just slightly forward..

If you have this griddle on level ground, the grease will run into the tray. The tray is a bit small, and we sometimes wire up a 15 oz. can to catch the grease.

A couple of ways - 1.) just shim either the cooktop or legs to push it forward or what I did was 2.) invest in a grease scraper like the ones they use in a diner and periodically simply push the grease into the grease channel in the front. Once the cooktop is warped it pretty much stays that way - not much you can do.

It shouldn't. See if the knobs on the inside is not locking the tray. Try not to close the tray to close to the knobs. If this doesn't work maybe there is something wrong with the tray.

There is a small grease catcher tray that goes under the front lip of the grill. It was missing when we bought ours at a thrift store, but I have seen them on others. I just put a plate under the front lip. Some of the juices are great for making gravy.

The grill grate is solid immediately above the burners. I have had no problems with grease entering the burners

I would not go to that much mess. I would not go to that much mess. Dig the old grease out with a narrow blade, take soft absorbent cloth and a screw driver and wipe the excess out and don't worry about some being left behind. It is not contaminated grease.

There should be a fully articulating swivel that prevents this from happening. You may need to lubricate this with waterproof grease

Grease will get hung up in it. It not made for that purpose .......also it will take out too much air out of the kitchen .......will cause negative air pressure

It will go into the grease channel, but it's just an indentation from the bottom so when you tip the pan to pour, it all goes back.

I have not had any problems with grease clogging. I burn mine full tilt after I cook for about 10 minutes, don't forget it. That should take care of the grease.Don't try to clean it while its hot, scrapes the coating off of the grill.

OK. here is a simple solution which I have known for so long. There is a tray underneath the grill. Pour water there before cooking. Then, you will not have a much spatter problem. Be careful though. Sometimes, too much oil gathers in the tray that it might spill over the tray (but it never happened so far). The amount the tray can hold is limited. Just pay attention while cooking the oily meats.

It's okay with grease draining but there are clear hot spots under the heating loop. For pancakes i just pour the batter over the top of the hotter loop.

Tthere is a drain on both ends, lengthwise. There is no catch, the grease drains down into the grill and is caught in the drip tray.

I believe a batch of these machines went out that way, yes. However my dad has this machine as do I and no grease issues thus far.

I use white grease that you can find at the local hardware store. Keep it coated at all times so it won't rust and cease up.

you can put a grease fitting right on top, and fill it manually if you like or,with cartridges. I fill it manually with a big air grease system at the shop

The grill has a slip-joint built in to allow for height adjustment of thickness of meats or foods. When in the tilted position to allow for grease run-off, the top plate will slip some, but does not pose a problem as long as the plates are locked in correctly.

fine zesting and grating. Slide the cover on upside-down and grate away. Doing that keeps the gratings from flying all over the counter. ;)
