IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE
Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the appliance is found to be damaged, save the
packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
We cannot assume responsibility for damage or loss incurred in transit.
Before installing, verify the electrical rating agrees with the specification on the rating plate.

Installation Instructions
Ideally an exhaust system should be located directly above the appliance to exhaust steam and heat generated by the
appliance.
1. Set the unit in place and level using a spirit level.
2. Ascertain that a floor drain (open gap) is convenient to the appliance drain.
3. Mark hole locations on floor through anchoring holes provided in flanged adjustable feet.
4. Remove appliance and drill holes in locations marked on floor and insert proper anchoring devices.
5. Set unit back in position and re-level left to right and front to back.
6. Bolt and anchor appliance securely to the floor.
7. Seal bolts and flanged feet with Silastic or equivalent compound.
8. Make service connections as indicated.
WARNING
Electrical and grounding connections must comply with the applicable portions of the
National Electrical Code and/or other local electrical codes.
WARNING
Disconnect electrical power supply and place a tag on the disconnect switch to indicate that
you are working on the circuit.
Use copper wire suitable for at least 90 degrees Celsius. The steamer must be grounded. The wiring diagram is located
on the inside right hand panel as you face the steamer.

nformation to Steam
F
itter
Each cooking compartment requires approximately 1 BHP (50 lbs. of steam per hour minimum) to operate satisfactorily.
Assuming availability of 30 psi supply steam pressure immediately to the appliance, then pipe sizes of 1/2” or 3/4” or 1”
will deliver respectively 90, 165, or 385 lbs. of steam per hour to the appliance. From the foregoing to use 1/2” pipe line
would most likely prove inadequate.
An extremely important consideration is the pressure drop that will occur through the steam supply line from its point of
origin to the appliance. The greater the length of piping and number of valves and elbows, the greater the pressure losses.
