In-Counter Installation
Preparing the counter area:
•Before cutting holes, make sure that there is adequate clearance under the counter for the motor. The motor will extend about 5-2/3" (14.4 cm) below the counter but it is best to allow at least 10" (25.5 cm) from the under-counter to shelves or any other equipment under the counter. Also, when using the removable cover design, the back of the hole must be at least 6" (15.2 cm) from any wall to allow for cover door clearance.
•An extra 6.5" (16.5 cm) of open space above the top of the cover will be needed for placement and removal of the In-Counter machine and for custom programming the six PRE-SET buttons.
•If installing unit into a closed cabinet, use a 4" dia. (10 cm) flexible vinyl duct (dryer hose) to vent exhaust. Attach the vinyl duct to the bottom of your In-Counter Blending Station® MP by forcing the end of the hose over the exhaust baffle of the unit. Run the vinyl duct out of the cabinet for proper ventilation. Do not vent hose into a wall, ceiling or a concealed space of a building. Multiple units should not vent to a common manifold unit but to separate places. If running your Blending Station MP causes a suction on your cabinet door, place a spacer in the door frame to allow proper intake of air.
Do not use hose clamps or equivalent to attach exhaust hose on machine.
•When cutting holes for placement of multiple In-Counter units, position the edge of the machines at least 12" (30.48 cm) apart to ensure quick cleaning and proper venting between machines.
•In-Counter installation for a 120 VAC unit also requires you to have at least one 20 amp outlet per machine under the counter, available within six feet of the Blending Station MP. 220 VAC and 100 VAC units require a dedicated line. Consult an electrician for proper electrical needs.
•The In-Counter Blending Station MP also requires a gasket (provided in the machine’s original package) to be placed between the machine and the counter. See page 12 for instructions.
DO NOT strike the blender when removing from the counter.
