3. Check that the unit is level from front to back. Adjust the
level by turning the leveling studs on the back of the unit, if
necessary. Tighten the leveling stud locking nuts to hold the
adjustment.
4. Install the drip tray and cooking grate.
5. Have a qualified electrician perform the necessary electrical
connections (refer to “Electrical Connections” in this section
for additional information).
Electrical Connections
The Quick-Therm Salamander must be hardwired to the
electrical supply or have the appropriate cord and plug installed.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD:
• Units supplied without an electrical cord and plug
require field installation of proper cord and plug or a
hardwired connection to on-site electrical system.
Connection must be properly grounded and of correct
voltage, size, and configuration for electrical
specifications of unit. Contact a qualified electrician to
determine and install proper electrical connection.
• When installing a hardwired unit, a 3-pole or 4-pole
disconnect switch (depending on unit) must be
installed between unit and main electrical supply. The
switch must be rated properly and have contacts with a
minimum opening distance of 3 mm (1/8″).
• Unit must be connected to an equipotential system that
complies with the latest electrical standards.
Make sure electrical supply matches the voltage and
frequency rating on the specification plate. Incorrect
electrical supply may damage the unit.
Hardwired Connection
1. Remove the access panel to expose the power inlet. It is
located on the right rear side of the unit when facing the
controls.
2. Locate the terminal block inside the unit.
3. Bring power leads from a properly sized circuit breaker or
disconnect switch through the power inlet on the unit.
4. Make the appropriate connections. Refer to the wiring
diagram included with the unit.
• Use copper wire only.
• Tighten connections to a minimum of 4.25 newton
meters (40 inch pounds).
• A grounding screw is provided near the electrical
terminals. An equipment grounding conductor must be
properly connected to it.
5. Replace and secure the access panel.
Cord and Plug Connection
On units to be installed with a power cord and plug, have a
qualified electrician connect the proper cord and plug to the unit.
Make sure the plug is rated for the specific load and the plug
matches a suitable receptacle.
NOTE: The plug and receptacle must be grounded in
accordance with current standards.

9. Have a qualified electrician perform the necessary electrical
connections (refer to “Electrical Connections” in this section
for additional information).
Installing a Wall-Mounted Unit
Mounting the unit on a wall requires special considerations and
procedures due to the weight of the unit.
1. Install the wall mount bracket provided with the unit onto a
solid, non-combustible surface using the appropriate
fasteners. There are five mounting holes on the wall mount
bracket.
• Make sure the fasteners are appropriate for the
installation surface and the weight of the unit.
• Make sure the unit is installed where the ambient air
temperature will not rise above 45°C (113°F) and where
it will not be exposed to excessive moisture or grease-
laden air.
• Locate the unit directly underneath an exhaust hood if
possible. This will ensure total suction of steam produced
during cooking.
• Make sure the unit is at the proper height in an area
convenient for use.
2. Lift the unit, and align the mounting slots on the back of the unit
with the hooks on the wall mount bracket. Set the unit securely
on the hooks. This step will require at least two people.
