n-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" 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. (10.1 cm) flexible vinyl
duct (dryer hose) to vent exhaust. Attach the vinyl duct to the bottom of
your In-Counter Touch and Go
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
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 also requires you to have at least one 20 amp outlet
per machine under the counter, available within six feet of the Blending
Station. Consult an electrician for proper electrical needs.
• The In-Counter Blending Station also requires a foam gasket (provided
in the machine's original package) to be placed between the machine
and the counter. See page 12 for instructions.
