SETUP
This appliance is designed for use in non-combustible locations
only. Setup the hotplate only on a firm, level, non-combustible
surface.
Verify local codes for requirements. Concrete, tile, terrazzo or metal
surfaces are recommended. Metal or tile over combustible material
may not meet code for non-combustible surfaces.
Clearances to non-combustible surfaces must be maintained.
Maintain 0” from side and rear to non-combustible walls, and 4” from
non-combustible counter as established by provided 4” legs.
Maintain adequate clearances for cleaning and proper operation.
The hotplate must be installed in an area with sufficient make-up air
for proper combustion, and must be installed such that the flow of
combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed.
For servicing, Wells Mfg. recommends 6” clearance from rear of the
appliance to wall.
Install adjustable legs, one on each corner of
the appliance, in the holes provided. Verify
that the unit sits firmly ON ALL FOUR LEGS.
With the adjustable legs, adjust as required
to level the appliance. All four legs must be
adjusted to firmly contact the floor in order to
prevent tipping.
When used with an exhaust fan, special precautions must be
observed to avoid interference with the operation of the hotplate, such
as drafts and air starvation.
