INSTALLATION

NOTICE

These installation procedures must be followed by qualified personnel or warranty will be void.

Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection Association, Inc., states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should comply with all local codes.

The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1,or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA- B149.2, as applicable, including:

1.The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

2.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

NOTICE

EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES: It is recommended that the cheese melter be installed under a ventilation hood. Consult local codes for proper installation of hoods. Proper ventilation is the owner’s responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be covered by warranty.

NOTICE

In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts all gas appliances vented by either mechanical systems or ventilation hoods shall comply with 248 CMR interlocking requirements.

STEP 1: UNPACKING

IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE

All containers should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier has assumed responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If damaged equipment is received, either apparent or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.

Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. The freight bill must then be signed by the carrier representative (Driver). If the bill is not signed, the carrier may refuse the claim. The carrier can supply the necessary forms.

A request for inspection must be made to the carrier within 15 days if there is concealed damage or loss that is not apparent until after the equipment is uncrated. The carrier should arrange an inspection. Be certain to hold all contents plus all packing material.

Do the following:

1.Cut the banding straps and remove the corrugated cardboard surrounding the cheese melter. If legs were shipped in the same container, set them aside for installation in later steps of this procedure. Do not remove any tags or labels attached to the cheese melter until the cheese melter is installed and working properly.

2.Cut the banding strap holding the cheese melter to the wooden skid.

3.If installing the cheese melter over a range, go to Step 2a. If installing the cheese melter on a wall, go to Step 2b.

If installing the cheese melter on legs for countertop use, go to Step 2c.
