NOTICE:
Manufacturer's warranty on
this hotplate is in effect only
when the hotplate is installed
and operated in accordance
with these instructions and
local codes and ordinances or,
in the absence of local codes,
the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 (current edition).
The manufacturer of the
hotplate assumes no liability
for any damage resulting from
failure to comply with this
notice.
UNPACKING & INSPECTION
Carefully remove the hotplate from the carton. Remove all
protective plastic film, packing materials and accessories from the
hotplate before connecting the hotplate to fuel gas or otherwise
performing any installation procedure.
Carefully read all instructions in this manual and the Installation
Instruction Sheet packed with the hotplate before starting any
installation.
Read and understand all labels and diagrams attached to the
hotplate.
Carefully account for all components and accessories before
discarding packing materials. Store all accessories in a convenient place
for later use.
Thoroughly clean the appliance before use. See Cleaning
Instructions, page 11.
SETUP
Setup the hotplate only on a firm, level, non-combustible surface.
The hotplate must be leveled with a spirit level in its final operational
position, prior to beginning the gas piping installation.
Clearances to adjacent surfaces must be maintained.
Maintain a minimum of 3" from hotplate sides and 3" from rear of the
hotplate to combustible walls; 0" from sides and rear of the hotplate
to non-combustible walls; and; 4" from non-combustible counter as
established by provided 4" legs. Supplied legs must be properly
installed. Once installed, the legs should NOT be removed.
Maintain adequate clearances for cleaning and proper operation.
The hotplate must be installed in an area with sufficient make-up air for
proper combustion, and must be installed such that the flow of combustion
and ventilation air will not be obstructed.
For servicing, Wells Mfg. recommends 6" clearance from rear of the
hotplate to wall.
When used with an exhaust fan, special precautions must be observed to
avoid interference with the operation of the hotplate, such as drafts and air
starvation.
The current edition of NFPA 96 (Standard for the Installation of
Equipment for the Removal of Smoke and Grease Laden Vapors from
Commercial Cooking Equipment) specifies ventilation requirements to
ensure the removal of exhaust gasses and products of combustion.
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER TO ENSURE THAT
THIS GAS HOTPLATE INSTALLATION CONFORMS TO ALL
APPLICABLE CODES AND ORDINANCES.
The area where the hotplate is installed must be kept clear of combustibles
and flammables. This includes mops, rags, grease, wrapping paper and
electric cords.
