General Information

Toastmaster electric Food Warmers are designed in three categories; drop-in, built in or counter units. The chart on page 4 will give the specific model you have as well as provide additional statistical information. All units consist of a stainless steel well or receptacle that is heated by a tubular heating element. They are designed to accomodate standard food inserts and are capable of storing one or more food products. Toast- masters Food Warmers may be used as a single unit or banked with other built-in or counter equipment.

Toastmaster Food Warmers are made of the finest material available to provide durability and a safe and trouble-free operation. However, care in operation and cleaning will provide a longer life for your equipment. The exterior case of the counter type unit has stainless steel front and sides and aluminized steel on the back. The top case and mounting flange of the drop-in units are made of welded and reinforced stainless steel and the case sides are made of aluminized steel.

All Toastmaster Food Warmers meet the standards of the National Sanitation Foundation and are listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc.

Installation

A. Installing Counter Type Units

Care should be taken while uncrating your new Toastmaster Food Warmer to prevent damage and scratching of the surfaces. First, open the carton by removing all fastening staples. Remove and discard the internal packing material from the top of the unit. Lift the unit up and out of the carton. Locate any mounting brackets or other loose items and set aside. You will find four 4” plastic legs with level adjusting feet. To install these legs, turn the unit on its top or back and screw the legs into the four tapped holes in the bottom. Upright the unit on your counter, locate the thermostat control knob on the front panel and set in the “OFF” position.

Your installer should be aware of your electrical power as all Toastmaster Food Warmers are provided in different voltages. This voltage, either 120 . 208 or 240, should have been specified when ordering your unit(s). All counter units are shipped with a factory installed 36” electrical cord and plug. All Food Warmers are provided in a single phase only regardless of voltage.

Operation

A. Controls

Controls for Food Warmers vary for different models and the features or intended use of it. A food warmer doesn’t require extensive operator interface but the following information should be made available to them. Some of the Food Warmers use a positive off position on the thermostat.
