Why Australian commercial hospitality kitchens, cafes, and restaurant lines choose the Gasmax JUS-TR-4B:

• High-power four-burner array (98 Mj/h total output) — four commercial-grade 24.5 Mj/h open burners deliver fast pan heating, rapid water boiling, and instant thermal recovery to keep service tickets moving during peak trade.

• Heavy-duty cast-iron pan support trivets — robust cast-iron trivets absorb high thermal stress, safely supporting heavy stockpots, large saute pans, and cast-iron skillets while facilitating smooth pan sliding across burners.

• Precision Italian gas control valves — premium Italian-engineered control valves deliver responsive, micro-adjustable flame control from intense searing heat down to a gentle simmer for delicate sauces.

• Integrated stainless steel splashback guard — raised rear and wrap-around side splash walls capture boiling spills, oil splatters, and sauce droplets, shielding adjoining walls and surfaces while simplifying daily sanitation.

• Reliable push-button piezo ignition — integrated ignition system provides fast, dependable burner lighting without requiring handheld matches, taper wands, or open flint lighters.

• Certified thermoelectric flame failure safety — each burner features a dedicated flame failure safety shut-off valve that instantly cuts the Natural Gas supply if a flame is blown out by drafts or smothered by a boil-over.

• Full food-grade stainless steel construction — heavy-duty commercial stainless steel front fascia, side panels, and drip basin resist corrosive cooking salts, kitchen grease, and high heat while enabling quick end-of-shift washdowns.

• Food van & mobile kitchen friendly design — compact 605mm benchtop format fits seamlessly into space-restricted food truck pass lines, mobile catering trailers, and modular cooklines without sacrificing professional multi-pan capacity.

• Sturdy heavy-duty adjustable levelling feet — rugged threaded legs ensure solid, level stability on uneven commercial countertops while maintaining essential convective cooling airflow beneath the chassis.

• Modular stand compatibility (JUS600E) — purpose-built to sit cleanly on standard commercial benchtops or mount securely onto the matching Gasmax JUS600E stainless steel equipment stand (sold separately) to form an ergonomic freestanding boiling top with an undershelf.

• Up to 4-year commercial warranty protection — backed by an Australian 2-Year parts and labour commercial warranty, extendable to an additional 2-Year parts-only warranty upon product registration within 14 days of invoice.

Daily Care, Maintenance & End-of-Shift Sanitisation

To preserve gas combustion efficiency, prevent burner clogging, and uphold Australian commercial kitchen hygiene:

1. End-of-Shift Trivet Cleaning: At the close of trade, lift off the heavy-duty cast-iron trivets once cool enough to handle safely. Scrub away carbonised spills, marinades, and boiled-over starches using a stiff wire brush or commercial scouring pad in a pot-wash sink with warm water and a neutral degreaser. Wipe dry and apply a light wipe of cooking oil to season the cast iron and prevent overnight surface oxidisation.

2. Burner Cap & Port Clearing: Inspect the open burner heads daily. Clear any ports or flame slots that have become blocked by boiled sauces, grease, or food particles using a fine wire probe or stiff brush. Blocked burner ports cause uneven yellow flames, incomplete combustion, and soot accumulation on pan bases.

3. Stainless Steel Spillage Basin Maintenance: Lift off the trivets and burners to access the stainless steel catchment basin. Wipe away collected cooking grease and liquid runoff using warm water and an approved commercial kitchen detergent. Always dry thoroughly before reseating the burners and trivets.

4. Stainless Steel Body & Splashback Care: Wipe down the integrated splashback, side panels, and front control fascia daily using a soft microfibre cloth dampened with warm soapy water, wiping in the direction of the brushed metal grain. Avoid spraying water directly into the gas valve stems or internal burner assemblies.

5. Flame Sensor & Igniter Care: Keep the piezo ignition probes and thermoelectric flame failure thermocouples clean and free of burnt-on grease. A clean sensor ensures immediate flame detection and prevents unnecessary safety shut-offs.

Gas Installation, Ventilation & Commissioning Notice

The Gasmax JUS-TR-4B is a commercial open-flame gas appliance requiring certified trade commissioning:

1. Licensed Gas Fitter Commissioning: The unit must be installed, pressure-tested, and commissioned by an authorised, licensed gas fitter in strict compliance with current AS/NZS 5601 gas installation regulations, local council health bylaws, and manufacturer specifications. An official gas compliance certificate must be retained to validate warranty coverage.

2. Gas Supply Line & Sizing: Calibrated for reticulated Natural Gas and fitted with a 1/2" rear gas connection point. Because the cooktop draws 98 Mj/h across its four burners, ensure incoming mains supply pipework and line regulators maintain rated operating gas pressure without pressure dips when other cookline equipment operates simultaneously.

3. Exhaust Extraction Requirements: Generating direct open flames, intense convective heat, and combustion byproducts, the unit must be operated directly beneath an approved commercial kitchen exhaust extraction hood compliant with AS 1668.2.

4. Countertop Positioning & Stand Mounting: Install on a heat-resistant commercial stainless steel workbench or mount directly onto the matching Gasmax JUS600E stainless steel stand. The supplied adjustable feet must be fitted to provide essential convective cooling airflow beneath the chassis. Maintain minimum clearances of at least 150 mm from combustible walls and 50 mm from non-combustible partitions.

Freight & Delivery Notice

Standard commercial road freight delivery is available across Australia to commercial business addresses with level ground access or loading docks. Due to the unit's 38 kg net weight, cast-iron components, and palletised transit packaging, deliveries to residential or non-commercial addresses require a customised tail-lift freight quote. Please contact our friendly commercial sales team prior to placing your order to confirm delivery logistics, site access details, or to add the matching JUS600E equipment stand to your consignment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the operational advantages of Italian gas valves on a commercial cooktop?

Italian gas control valves are renowned in the commercial catering industry for precision engineering, smooth rotational resistance, and long-term durability. Unlike lower-grade brass taps that become stiff or develop gas leaks under high thermal stress, Italian valves allow line chefs to dial in exact flame heights with pinpoint accuracy, holding reliable low simmers or transitioning smoothly to high searing output without flame flutter.

Can the Gasmax JUS-TR-4B be mounted on an equipment stand?

Yes. Gasmax manufactures the dedicated JUS600E stainless steel equipment stand engineered specifically for the 605 mm x 652 mm base footprint of this cooktop. The stand elevates the cooking surface to standard commercial working height, frees up primary workbench preparation space, and features a sturdy lower undershelf for storing stockpots, saute pans, and utensils.

How does the flame failure safety system work?

Each burner is equipped with an independent thermoelectric thermocouple positioned directly beside the flame port. If a burner flame is accidentally extinguished by an intense kitchen cross-draft or a boiling pot overflowing, the thermocouple cools down within seconds and automatically shuts off the gas flow to that specific burner, preventing hazardous gas accumulation.

Can this cooktop be used in a food truck or mobile catering van?

Yes. The JUS-TR-4B features a compact 605mm benchtop footprint and a sturdy 38 kg build, making it a popular choice for food trucks, mobile catering trailers, and pop-up kitchens operating with compliant gas installations and extraction systems. (Note: For mobile setups relying on bottled gas, ensure your venue has access to LPG or verify model compatibility with our sales team).

How do I activate the 4-year warranty coverage?

The Gasmax JUS-TR-4B comes standard with a 2-Year commercial parts and labour warranty. Hospitality operators who register their purchase online with the manufacturer within 14 days of the original invoice date receive an additional 2-Year parts-only warranty extension, securing up to 4 years of comprehensive commercial protection across Australia.
