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" (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 T&G 2 Blending
Station ® 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 In-Counter T&G 2 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 for 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 T&G 2 Blending Station.
220 VAC and 100 VAC units require a dedicated line. Consult an electrician for proper
electrical needs.
• The In-Counter T&G 2 Blending Station also requires a gasket (provided in the machine's
original package) to be placed between the machine and the counter. See page 10 for
instructions.
DO NOT strike the blender when removing from the counter.
