Unpacking and Installation
The shipping carton should be inspected upon delivery. When received,
carefully examine for any shipping damage before unpacking. If damage is
discovered, the delivering carrier should both specify and sign for the
damage on your copy of the delivery receipt.
Open the carton carefully making certain that all parts are accounted for
before packaging materials are discarded. After unpacking, if damage is
found promptly report it to the carrier and request a damage inspection
promptly.
Important
Failure to request an inspection of damage within a few days
after receipt of shipment absolves the carrier from any liability for damage.
You must call for a damage inspection promptly.
s
Place the unit where it will be operated, away from drafts and wide
variations in ambient temperature. It should be near a power source that
matches the unit nameplate requirements. Allow clearance of a minimum
of 2” around the unit for free air convection, hose/accessory attachment
and user-access. DO NOT put the oven on top of or underneath another
oven, or on a combustible surface.
Connect a 1/4-inch ID vacuum hose to the left hose connector on the
control panel that is marked "EVACUATE". Connect the other end of the
hose to a vacuum pump.
If operation will include replacing the vacuum in the chamber with an
inert gas such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen, connect a 1/4-inch ID flexible
hose to the right hose connector that is marked "VENT" and to the
regulator for the gas supply. DO NOT use combustible, flammable or
corrosive gases.
