INSTALLATION
English
General
Hatco Salamanders are shipped with most components pre-
assembled. Care should be taken when unpacking the shipping
carton to avoid damage to the unit and the components enclosed.
The salamander can be placed on a countertop or mounted to
an appropriate wall surface. The following installation instructions
must be performed before operating the salamander.
ELECTRIC ShOCK hAzARD:
• Plug unit into a properly grounded electrical receptacle
of the correct voltage, size, and plug configuration. If
plug and receptacle do not match, contact a qualified
electrician to determine and install the proper voltage
and size electrical receptacle.
• Unit must be installed by a qualified electrician.
Installation must conform to all local electrical codes.
Installation by unqualified personnel will void unit
warranty and may lead to electric shock or burn, as well
as damage to unit and/or its surroundings.
• Unit is not weatherproof. Locate unit indoors where
ambient air temperature is a minimum of 70°F (21°C)
and a maximum of 113°F (45°C).
FIRE hAzARD:
• To reduce the risk of fire, the appliance is to be installed
in non-combustible surroundings only, with no
combustible material within 18″ (46 cm) of the sides,
front, or rear of the appliance or within 40″ (102 cm)
above the appliance. The appliance is to be mounted on
floors of non-combustible construction with non-
combustible flooring and surface finish and with no
combustible material against the underside, or on non-
combustible slabs or arches that have no combustible
material against the underside. Such construction shall
in all cases extend not less than 12″ (30 cm) beyond the
equipment on all sides.
• Locate unit a minimum of 2″ (51 mm) from any walls. If
safe distances are not maintained, discoloration or
combustion could occur.
• Do not obstruct air intake openings or air exhaust
openings on outer housing of unit. Unit combustion or
malfunction may occur.
For wall mounting, use special wall mount bracket provided
with unit only. Secure wall mount bracket to a solid, non-
combustible surface using appropriate hardware for
mounting surface and weight of unit.
Locate unit at proper counter height in an area that is
convenient for use. Location should be level to prevent unit
or its contents from falling accidentally and strong enough
to support the weight of the unit and contents.
Do not place anything on top of unit; doing so may subject
personnel to injury or damage unit.
NOTE: A qualified person must check possible placements of
the salamander to ensure that the proper electrical
supply line is available.

temperature will not rise above 113°F (45°C) and where
it will not be exposed to excessive moisture or grease-
laden air.
