LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug gas supply and cool the unit before cleaning. Remove rack, soak in warm, soapy water, scrub with a non-abrasive pad, and rinse. Wipe stainless surfaces with mild detergent and a soft cloth; avoid steel wool. Clean infrared burners by brushing away debris; do not submerge. Vacuum vents and pilot area to remove grease and dust. Inspect seals and controls for wear and tighten fasteners. Perform weekly deep clean to reduce bacteria, prevent fires, lower energy use, and pass inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Montague's CM48 Legend cheesemelter features 48" infrared Rapid Start burners with 40,000 BTU for consistent broiling; stainless steel exterior, three-position nickel rack, manual controls, NSF and CSA certified, 305 pounds, natural gas, 11700 watts.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Infrared Burners#@#
Rapid Start infrared burners provide intense, direct heat for quick browning and melting without prolonged preheating. Operators achieve a consistent surface finish across the full 48-inch cooking width while minimizing hold times and energy cycling.
#@@# Adjustable Rack Positions#@#
Three rack positions allow precise control of heat intensity and product distance from the infrared source for varied menu items. Chefs can quickly adjust the height to match melt requirements for toppings, gratins, and toasts without reconfiguring the line.
#@@# Heavy Duty Construction#@#
The stainless steel front, sides, top, and bottom resist corrosion and withstand constant use in commercial kitchens. Staff can perform routine cleaning with standard detergents and expect long-term structural integrity and hygienic surfaces.
#@@# High Output Capacity#@#
The unit supplies 40,000 BTU total, enabling the simultaneous finishing of multiple portions and reducing backlog during service rushes. Kitchen managers leverage this power rating to maintain throughput targets and consistent quality under continuous cycles.
#@@# Manual Controls#@#
The simple manual control layout reduces operator training time and allows immediate adjustments at the point of service. Line cooks can operate the unit intuitively and make on-the-fly changes to heat intensity and timing without complex programming.
