Taylor QS11 Original Operating Instructions page 27

Section 6
The Model QS11 has one, 12" (305 mm) lower cook
surface and the option of an 11" (289 mm) upper cook
surface.
The Model QS23 has two 12" (305 mm) lower cook
surfaces and the option of one 11" (279 mm) upper
cook surface or two 11" (279 mm) upper cook
surfaces.
They are also available with a grooved lower cook
surface for product sear. The two-sided cooking
concept ensures quick, even cooking of both sides of
products placed on the lower surface.
We begin our instructions with the opening
procedures, assuming product set-up procedures
(outlined in the "Important to the Operator" section of
this manual) are complete.
Opening Procedures
Before operating the grill, the release material sheets
must be installed on the upper and lower cook
surfaces.
Perform the following steps for installing release
material sheets:
CAUTION: Make sure the grill is COOL
before attempting to install or remove release
material sheets.
Step 1
Lay the upper release material sheet on the lower plate
and carefully lower the upper cook surface.

Step 2
Starting with the spring side, slide the straight end of
the release material rod through the front spring,
continue through the hemmed end of the release
sheet, and through the rear spring.
Step 3
Insert the second rod through the opposite hemmed
side of the release material sheet. Grasp both ends of
the rod, pull the release material up and around the
non-spring side of the upper cook surface and attach
the rod ends to the retaining clips. Turn the rods so that
the hooked end is facing downward.
